Attack on Osman Hadi resulted in escalation of anti-India rhetoric after unsubstantiated reports claimed his shooters fled to India. Properties linked to Awami League also vandalised.
Hasnat Abdullah of National Citizen Party says if India shelters forces who don't respect Bangladesh's sovereignty, potential, voting rights & human rights, 'Bangladesh will respond'.
Since Hasina’s ouster, Bangladesh has been governed by Yunus-led interim administration which has pledged to stabilise country & overhaul state institutions.
President Shahabuddin tells Reuters Yunus has not met him for nearly 7 months, his press dept has been taken away and his portraits removed from Bangladeshi embassies around the world.

Bangladesh has dissented into chaos. And they accuse India for the chaos. India must act correctly this time. India has been generous to its neighboring countries like Nepal and also Bangladesh. Till now also any person from Nepal can come to India, work here, live here without any questions. People from Bangladesh also used to come to India for work, education, medical tourism or simply tourism, etc. But the increased tendency of Bangladeshi towards Islamism on top of India’s actions against illegal Bangadeshis in India made India enemy number one of Bangladesh. So as long as India was generous, people are okay, but the moment India tries to secure itself, these guys become too anti-India. I think India must stop being generous and secure its border with all its neighboring countries, even with Nepal.
