India arrests tens of Bangladeshis as new govt says it is 'deeply concerned' about attacks | DW News

Political upheaval in Bangladesh has created new problems for neighboring India. On Monday, Indian border officials said they'd arrested dozens of Bangladeshis trying to enter the country to escape the unrest. Ousted Bangladeshi prime minister Sheikh Hasina fled to India herself, having been a strong ally to Indian prime minister Narendra Modi. His government must now decide how to approach relations with Bangladesh's new interim government.

Also, the new interim government says it is 'gravely concerned' about reported attacks on Hindu and other religious minorities. Religious rights groups say they have recorded over 200 such incidents since the ouster of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The new cabinet said it would immediately engage with communities and their representitives to find a solution. Hindus are the largest minority faith in the country, which is predominantly Muslim, and many of them are supporters of Sheikh Hasina's party.

Where is the story about the prison break? Bangladesh is a good example of society in which economy (GDP 2000-2022 from 53 to 460 billion) has grown fast and somebody else wants to control it. Electricity independence 100%, Phase out from coal in near future and BRICS+ membership. All supply chains would have been secured and no need for US dollar. Now this is gone and so this students future. Glory to the western social media. Zelenskyi, Mileil, Marcos and Bobby Wine
