Chinmoy Krishna Das | Ministry of External Affairs Spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal on November 29 reacted to the arrest of Chinmoy Krishna Das in Bangladesh. Addressing the media, he said, “India has consistently and strongly raised with the Bangladesh government the threats and targeted attacks on Hindus and other minorities... The interim government must live up to its responsibility of protecting all minorities. We are concerned about the surge of extremist rhetoric. Increasing incidents of violence and provocation cannot be dismissed merely as media exaggerations. We call upon Bangladesh to take steps for the protection of minorities.”
