Bangladesh interim leader Muhammad Yunus claims he asked Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to block Sheikh Hasina’s online speeches — but Modi refused, saying, “It’s social media, you can’t control it.”
Yunus, who now leads Bangladesh after Hasina’s ouster, made this revelation during a talk at Chatham House in London.

Meanwhile, Yunus’ own anti-India remarks and outreach to China have alarmed New Delhi.
Is Bangladesh heading into deeper turmoil? And is India taking a firm stand on digital freedom?
