Bangladesh Protests: Mamata Banerjee Offers Shelter to ‘Those in Distress’ as Death Toll Crosses 130

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced on Sunday that the Trinamool Congress-led state government would provide shelter to people fleeing violence in Bangladesh if they seek refuge in Bengal.

Speaking at a mega 'Martyrs' Day' rally in Kolkata, Banerjee emphasized the humanitarian duty to aid those in need, referencing the United Nations' resolution on refugee protection.

"I cannot speak anything about Bangladesh as it is another country.

The Indian government will speak about that.

But if helpless people (from Bangladesh) knock on Bengal's door, we will give them shelter.

There is a resolution of the UN.

Neighbours will respect refugees," Banerjee declared amid heavy rain.

Hasina Sentenced:6-Months Jail After Viral “License to Kill” Audio | First Verdict Since 2024 Escape

Former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been sentenced to six months in jail by the International Crimes Tribunal for contempt of court. The verdict comes after a leaked audio call revealed Hasina allegedly mocking the judiciary and referencing a “license to kill” 227 people during the 2024 protests. The sentencing marks the first official ruling since her ouster and escape last year following mass student-led demonstrations. Former student leader Shamil Bulbul was also sentenced to two months. Defense lawyers call the charges politically motivated, while prosecutors hint at more charges to come. #SheikhHasina #BangladeshPolitics #InternationalCrimesTribunal #HasinaSentenced #BangladeshProtests #Justice #PoliticalDrama #ContemptOfCourt #ShamilBulbul #HumanRights #BangladeshNews #BreakingNews #CourtVerdict #OneIndia Also Read Bangladesh's Ex-PM Sheikh Hasina Sentenced To 6 Months In Jail In Contempt Of Court Case :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/bangladeshs-ex-pm-sheikh-hasina-sentenced-to-6-months-in-jail-in-contempt-of-court-case-7789167.html?ref=DMDesc Bangladesh’s State-Sponsored Sabotage?

PM Modi Refuses to Silence Hasina Online: Yunus React, Bangladesh Boils Over Her Speeches from India

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. As Hasina continues to address the Bangladeshi public from India, tensions rise, with Yunus accusing her of stirring unrest. 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? #Modi #SheikhHasina #MuhammadYunus #BangladeshPolitics #IndiaBangladesh #SocialMediaFreedom #Geopolitics #ChathamHouse #DigitalDiplomacy #ModiHasina #SouthAsia #ChinaInBangladesh ~HT.318~PR.274~ED.103~GR.125~
