According to the report the house of a Hindu family was set on fire
The indian ambassador says that india is willing to develop relations with the new government
Indian High Commissioner pranay Verma says that india wants to continue its relations with bangladesh under the current government led by Mohammad Younis.
However, he did not comment on the length of stay of the ousted leader Sheikh Hasina in India. The Daily Star newspaper reported that his comments came after a meeting with Dr. Tawheed Hussain, Adviser on Foreign Affairs at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"We want to continue our relations with bangladesh," Verma told the media after his first meeting with Tawheed Hussain since the formation of the interim government after the fall of the Hasina's Awami party government.
The US has also refused to get involved in Bangladesh's political crisis that led to the resignation and subsequent resignation of prime minister Sheikh Hasina. Following the White House's comments on the same issue, this time the State Department called the comments "disgusting".
This is funny... Any idea that the US was involved in Sheikh Hasina's resignation is completely false. "We've seen a lot of misinformation over the past few weeks, and we've been working hard to strengthen information and credibility across the local ecosystem, especially our partners at Southeast Asia," said Vedant Patel, deputy spokesman for the US State Department.
The white house on monday (August 12) strongly denied allegations of US interference in Bangladesh's internal affairs. “We never interfered. Reports and information about the involvement of the US government in these events are simply false. white house press Secretary Karin Jean-Pierre told reporters at her daily briefing that this was not true.
Jean-Pierre is responding to media reports that Hasina has said she can remain in power if she renounces sovereignty over the island of St. Martin and allows the united states to stay ruler of the Pacific. However, Hasina's son, Sajib Vazd, has denied his mother's statement.
"The previous story about my resignation to my mother that was published in the newspaper is completely false and fabricated. I have just confirmed with her that she did not make any statement either before or since leaving Dhaka,” Wazed said in a post on X
American entrepreneur vivek Ramaswamy, who had declared his candidacy for the republican party in the 2024 US presidential elections, condemned the alleged attacks on Hindus in bangladesh as “wrong, it’s concerning, and it’s a cautionary tale for victimhood-laced quota systems”. Calling it a “disaster”, he spoke about the government job quota system that triggered widespread protests by students and the youth leading to the fall of the government.
“The targeted violence against Hindus in bangladesh is wrong, it’s concerning, and it’s a cautionary tale for victimhood-laced quota systems. Here’s what happened: bangladesh fought a bloody war for its independence in 1971. Hundreds of thousands of Bangladeshi civilians were raped and murdered. It's a tragedy, and it sounds right. But then bangladesh implemented a quota system for social work: 80% of the jobs go to specific social groups (war veterans, victims of occupation, minorities, etc.) and 20 % only on the marks awarded, Ramaswamy said in a press release for X .
