Bangladesh Violence: Rampaging Mob Commits Shocking Acts | Sheikh Hasina
Protests against the quota system in Bangladesh show no signs of abating. Seeing the deteriorating situation, Sheikh Hasina resigned from the PM post and left the country on Monday. Reports indicate that at least 300 people have died in violent clashes in recent days.
Amid these violent protests, India has advised its citizens to avoid traveling to Bangladesh until further notice. The Ministry of External Affairs has also issued a stern warning to Indians residing in Bangladesh to remain extremely vigilant and limit their movements.
The situation in Bangladesh has changed dramatically. Following a coup, the army has taken full control of the country. Army Chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman has announced that an interim government will be established within 48 hours, pledging to restore peace in Bangladesh.
In the wake of the coup, India is closely monitoring all situations. A security alert has been issued along the India-Bangladesh border. On Monday, protesters caused significant disorder in Bangladesh, including vandalizing the PM's residence and setting fires in various locations in Dhaka.
