Hey @WhiteHouse and @StateDept, when are @POTUS and @SecBlinken going to talk to @ChiefAdviserGoB to discuss the situation in #Bangladesh and explore ways for the U.S. to help with the country's historic transformation after the end of the dictatorship? It is a bit unseemly for the U.S. and #India to be talking about Bangladesh at this moment in history.

This gives the impression that neither the U.S. nor India have learned their lessons after getting Bangladesh policy so wrong in recent months. This is a very bad look for both New Delhi and Washington.

Also, I hope the U.S. understands that for the people of Bangladesh, the goal is not a return to "normalcy." The goal is to build a new Bangladesh where the rights of all are respected and where the country can fulfill the dreams of those who fought for liberation in 1971 and 2024.

Do better.

India has lost Bangladesh. Despite India's crucial military intervention at the end of 1971 that ensured first the defeat of the Pakistan military after a nine month war, and then the independence of the country, there has for some time been a significant anti-India feeling in Bangladesh that waxed that waned depending on the political situation in both countries.

The irritation/anger perhaps started when Indian products flooded the Bangladesh market in 1972, impacting upon Bangladesh's manufacturing industry devestated during the war. And as years went on there was always the sense that India being an overly influential big country neighbour. In addition there was perhaps a communal element to the anger, with India being a dominant Hindu nation, whilst Bangladesh, a muslim one.

However, the Indian government's total and criticual support for the Awami League in recent years, irrespective of lack of free and fair elections, terrible human rights record and increasing authoritarianism - along with India prime minister's Modi's anti-muslim rhetoric - had in recently years ratcheted up the the anger towards India. And, it was the Indian government's continued support for the Awami League even after the law enforcement killings started on July 16 which was the nail in the coffin. It will take many many years before the Indian government can come back from this.

The defeated Awami forces are using ordinary Hindus as pawns to destabilize the country.

Even the BBC has exposed the fabricated propaganda about Hindu oppression in Bangladesh, orchestrated and published by Indian media. It's astonishing how they exploit Bangladeshi Hindus to push their political agenda of reinstating the notorious fascist, Hasina.

It will take time for things to settle down in #Bangladesh & for minorities to feel safe. On Saturday protestors gathered in front of the house of the Chief Justice of Bangladesh & left only when he agreed 'in principle' to resign.
Chief Justice Obaidul Hassan is a known #SheikhHasina loyalist - but his forced exit may have a deeper reason. There have been whispers over the last 24 hours - of how Bangladesh narrowly escaped a 'judicial coup' ... that aimed at brining Hasina back to power.
While this cannot be independently verified - it surely shows just how fragile the situation is in Bangladesh. (Exactly the situation where minorities come under attack)

This is Gobinda Chandra Pramanik, a prominent Hindu leader in Bangladesh.

He say the news of alleged Hindu persecution in #Bangladesh, which is being widely circulated in the Indian media, is false and baseless.

Dhaka University students wrote various slogans on the walls of the university campus. During the quota movement, the anti-quota writings on the walls were erased with paint and new slogans were written. Photos have been taken from DU campus today.
