‘Hasina Coming Back As PM,’ Says Rabbi Alam
Referring to the student-led protests last year that turned violent and led to the ouster of Sheikh Hasina and Bangladesh’s PM, Alam said they “made a mistake" because they were “manipulated".
“We want to ask the Bangladesh Advisor to step down and go back to where he came from. Sheikh Hasina is coming back as the Prime Minister. The young generation has made a mistake, but that’s not their fault; they have been manipulated," he added.
Meanwhile, a court in Dhaka has recently ordered the seizure of Sheikh Hasina’s Dhanmondi residence, ‘Sudasadhan,’ and some other properties owned by her family members, who are in exile in India. In addition to this, the court also ordered the seizure of 124 bank accounts belonging to her family.
Alam Thanks PM Modi
Rabbi Alam thanked India for providing shelter to Hasina when tensions escalated in Bangladesh. He further thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi for providing a safe travel passage for Sheikh Hasina.
“Bangladesh is under attack, and it needs to be addressed by the international community. A political uprising is fine, but that is not what has been going on in Bangladesh. This is a terrorist uprising. Many of our leaders are sheltered here in India, and we are very thankful to Indian government for providing the alignment," he told news agency ANI.
