India's Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri met Bangladeshi Foreign Adviser Mohammad Touhid Hossain in Dhaka to address attacks on religious institutions and Hindu minorities. Misri expressed concerns over rising violence and urged better protection for vulnerable communities. The discussions also focused on strengthening ties, which have been strained since Sheikh Hasina's ouster and Nobel laureate Mohammad Yunus assuming leadership. Incidents of mob violence and prosecution of Hindu priests have worsened tensions. Misri called the talks "frank and constructive," emphasizing India’s commitment to mutual cooperation. Bangladesh attributed recent violence to political retaliation, not religious discrimination.
