The Bangladesh high court has asked the government to take immediate measures to address the situation, which has raised concerns over the safety of Hindus.

BJP leaders, spearheaded by Suvendu Adhikari, protested outside the Bangladesh High Commission in Kolkata over the arrest of ISKCON priest Chinmoy Krishna Das. They demanded his release, alleging religious persecution in Bangladesh.

Tensions soared high as worldwide protests against attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh intensified on Wednesday after the arrest of Hindu monk Chinmoy Krishna Das, President of Pundarik Dham and a leading figure in the Hindu community.
