Anti-Hindu Attacks Continue In Bangladesh: What Are India's Options?

Another ISKCON temple in Bangladesh has been vandalized and set on fire, this time in Dhaka. This incident is the latest in a series of attacks on ISKCON temples in Bangladesh, with the community alleging persistent assaults and limited government action. ISKCON Kolkata Vice-President Radharamn Das reported the incident on his X account, expressing concerns about the safety of Hindus in Bangladesh. The Indian government has condemned these ongoing attacks multiple times now. Many are calling for justice and strengthened protection for religious minorities in Bangladesh. The matter is not just about the arrest of Chinmoy Prabhu Das, or the looting of houses and properties of minorities but the larger conversation is around what the minorities are going through at the moment. Is the Bangladesh government, which removed Sheikh Hasina in a military coup, completely changing the secular-democratic character of its country? What impact can it have on the politics of South Asia? And what can India do in this situation?
