Yunus's Hindu Outreach: Can Bangladesh Stop The Minority Attacks?

Published On: August 14, 2024 - As Bangladesh reels from violent attacks against its Hindu minority following PM Sheikh Hasina's sudden departure, the nation's interim leader, Dr Muhammad Yunus, has made a symbolic visit to the Dhakeshwari Temple in Dhaka. Condemning the violence and urging the youth to protect minority communities, Yunus's outreach raises critical questions: Is it too little, too late? Can the Bangladesh government effectively curb the escalating violence? And what role should India play in ensuring the safety of minorities in its neighbouring country? Executive Editor, TV9 Network, Aditya Raj Kaul, discusses these pressing issues with Former Diplomat Amb Jitendra Nath Misra, Senior Journalist Saleem Samad from Dhaka, and Senior Research Fellow IPCS Abhijit Iyer Mitra.
