Protests in Delhi over reported attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh
HUNDREDS of protesters rallied near the Bangladesh diplomatic mission in the Indian capital on Tuesday, pressing for an end to reported attacks on Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh.
The protests in Delhi come after Bangladesh’s former premier Sheikh Hasina fled into exile in India in August.
The protesters demanded an intervention by the United Nations, carrying banners and placards that criticised it for not doing more to address the problems in Bangladesh.
