Bangladesh finds itself in the throes of turmoil following the sudden resignation and escape of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina earlier this week.
As the political vacuum deepens, violence has surged, with minority communities, particularly Hindus, bearing the brunt of the unrest.
In the heart of Dhaka, hundreds took to the streets to protest the escalating attacks on minority groups, chanting "Who are we, Bengali Bengali" in a desperate plea for peace and unity.
The demonstrators, blocking a major intersection in the city, carried posters and placards demanding immediate action to protect the vulnerable Hindu population.
Dramatic scenes unfolded in Dhaka as hundreds of student protesters and political activists armed with bamboo sticks, iron rods, and pipes launched a violent assault on supporters of ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The violence escalated as protesters torched the Bangabandhu Memorial Museum, once the home of assassinated leader Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, during an uprising that has left the city in turmoil. With Hasina now in exile, the anniversary of Rahman's death has become a flashpoint for unrest, and the interim government led by Muhammad Yunus has canceled the national mourning day. Journalists were threatened, and chaos reigned as the protesters clashed with Hasina's supporters. Watch now to understand the full scale of the crisis gripping Bangladesh!

Sheikh Hasina, who recently resigned as Bangladesh's Prime Minister and fled Dhaka amid protests, had prepared an undelivered speech intended to address the unrest that led to her resignation. As the situation worsened and security concerns escalated, she was advised to leave without delivering the speech. Now in India, the 76-year-old has revealed details of the undelivered address, accusing the United States of plotting a regime change in Bangladesh. These allegations, if aired, would have highlighted a significant geopolitical claim linked to her departure from office.

Following the independence of Bangladesh, many Hindus faced severe persecution, prompting mass migration to India. Stories from refugees like Sushil Gangopadhyay and Anima Das reveal harrowing experiences of violence and displacement during the Bangladesh Liberation War. Despite seeking safety in India, the trauma of their past remains vivid, with ongoing violence against Hindus in Bangladesh reinforcing their fears. Current refugees express relief at their safety in India but demand international intervention to safeguard the rights of Hindus in Bangladesh. Their collective experiences underscore a persistent insecurity and highlight the need for protective measures for minority communities in Bangladesh.
