Abstract | ||
With the fall of power of Sheikh Hasina, Mujib's daughter, on August 5, 2024, a significant change began in the political landscape of Bangladesh. From August 5 to 8, the lack of effective administration in the country and the inaction of the police resulted in terrible violence. We have all seen incidents of looting, extortion, one after other atrocities against the Hindu community. After the support of the army and negotiations with other political parties, an interim government was formed to fill the void in the country. Although the government has played a duplicitous role in stopping incidents like violence. During the rule of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Awami League leaders exploited Hindutva sentiments to garner India's support, but the government has largely failed to solve the systemic problems faced by the minority community. Between 2013 and 2021, there were more than 3600 attacks on minorities, unfortunately none of which have been fully prosecuted, which raises questions about the sincerity of the commitment to protecting minority communities. However, in the 2024 student revolution, the fall of Hasina, has thrown up a new challenge for India-Bangladesh relations and the Hindu minority community. The research paper basically explores and discusses the situation in Bangladesh and the protection of the Hindu community, the challenges and concerns of India. The research paper has been prepared with the help of various research papers, articles, articles, and current situation.
