Protesters destroy symbols of former regime:

On Wednesday, protesters used excavators to demolish buildings linked to Hasina’s family. The incident happened right after 6 months of Hasina’s exile from the country when crowds stormed her palace in Dhaka. The protestors or the gang attacked Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s residence and the museum. The Interior Minister declared Hasina responsible for the chaos and violence.

Protests intensified after reports surfaced that Hasina planned to address the nation via Facebook from exile in India. She remains wanted for crimes against humanity but has refused to surrender.

The Nobel Prize Winner, Muhammad Yunus called out people to stay away from the wrong direction.

India’s statement sparks controversy:

Bangladesh has rejected India’s statement on the destruction of Bangabandhu’s house, calling it “unexpected and unwarranted.” Indian Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal condemned the demolition of the Bangabandhu Memorial Museum in Dhaka. Jaiswal described it as an attack on Bangladesh’s national consciousness and a dishonor to the country’s history.

Bangladesh responds to Indian remarks:

Bangladesh foreign ministry spokesperson Rafiqul Alam dismissed India’s remarks. He said that India’s statement regarding Bangladesh’s internal affairs is absurd, inappropriate and unnecessary. He pointed out that Bangladesh does not interfere in India’s domestic matters. That is why India and other countries should also show some courtesy and should not interfere in Bangladesh’s domestic affairs.
