'Sheikh Hasina requested approval to come to India': Jaishankar's statement on Bangladesh crisis

#ThePrintUncut #bangladesh
Speaking in Rajya Sabha on the situation in Bangladesh, External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar says, 'we are in close and continuous touch with the Indian community in Bangladesh through our diplomatic missions. There are an estimated 19,000 Indian nationals there of which about 9000 are students. The bulk of the students returned in July. We are also monitoring the situation with regard to the status of minorities. There are reports of initiatives by various groups and organisations to ensure their protection and well-being. Naturally, we will remain deeply concerned till law and order is restored. Our border guarding forces have been instructed to be exceptionally alert in video of this complex situation. In last 24 hours, we have been in touch with authorities in Dhaka.'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a Manipur citizen, I can’t say I’m not jealous of the way the Ruling party took swift action in regards to Bangladesh. It only took them 3 days after the coup to call an all party meet and a briefing like this Parliament whereas we are being ignored for the past 15 months now and counting

INDIAN Government i.e. MODI Government failed in saving Hindu lives and that's why CAA was brought in but all party's opposed, still Modi government should help and save Hindus out there even if they have to send an army and divide Bangladesh in two parts

Modi should learn a lesson from this. Considering the unemployment, anger and frustration amongst Indian youth, there will come a day when the same kind of situation will certainly arise in India.

One sided statement. India is big country but act like a slaving mentality. Grow up
