A Bangladesh court issued new arrest orders for Chinmoy Krishna Das, a Hindu leader in jail, relating to four additional cases, including obstructing police and attacking lawyers. This followed a previous murder charge. The situation highlights concerns over minority rights and the handling of religious speech, as tensions escalate surrounding his legal issues.
New Delhi [India], February 22: A petition has been filed in the Supreme Court of India asking the Union Government to take urgent steps to stop violence and attacks on Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh. The plea also requests an extension of the cut-off date under the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) 2019. The petitioner argues that many Hindus have entered India recently due to ongoing violence and should be considered for Indian citizenship.
