Anti-India sentiment in Bangladesh has been rising, especially after the killing of anti-India student leader Osman Hadi. Now, his student wing, Inqilab Moncho, has demanded the cancellation of work permits for Indians, issuing a 24-hour ultimatum to the government with four demands.
The radical group has also pressed the government to complete the trial of everyone involved in the murder of its leader, Sharif Osman Hadi, within 24 days. The ultimatum was announced by Inqilab Moncho’s member secretary, Abdullah Al Jaber, from Shahbagh in Dhaka on Sunday night.
"The trial of the entire killing squad—including the killer, the mastermind, the accomplices, those who aided their escape, and those who sheltered them—must be completed within the next 24 days," the party had said in a Facebook statement.
The post translates to, "four demands of Inqilab Moncho:
The entire murder ring, including the murderers, the murder planners, the murder aides, the escape partners, the shelterers, must be brought to justice within the next 24 days. If Hadi's killers are not returned within the next 24 hours/if a specific statement is not received about their stay in India, the work permits of the Indians must be canceled. If India refuses to return all the murderers who have taken refuge inside it, a case must be filed against India in the Court of Justice. The fascist culprits hiding in the Civil Military Intelligence must be identified, arrested and brought to justice.The demand by Inqilab Moncho comes amid claims by the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) that two prime suspects in Osman Hadi's murder fled to India via the Haluaghat border in Mymensingh district, which is connected to Meghalaya.
The organisation continues to hold protests and blockades in various parts of the country, seeking justice against the accused in Hadi’s murder case.
ANTI-INDIA SENTIMENT ON RISE
India, on Friday, raised concerns over the killings of two Hindu men in Bangladesh and demanded that perpetrators be punished. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said New Delhi was disturbed by the recent killing and stressed that those responsible must be held accountable.
“The unremitting hostility against minorities in Bangladesh is a matter of great concern. We condemn the recent killing of a Hindu youth in Bangladesh and expect that the perpetrators of the crime will be brought to justice,” Jaiswal said.
Bangladesh foreign ministry dismissed India's concerns of targeted attacks on minorities in the country.
The statement said, "We note that there are systematic attempts to portray the isolated incidents of criminal acts as systemic persecution of the Hindus and maliciously used to propagate anti-Bangladesh sentiments in different parts of India. We observe a selective and unfair bias in certain quarters, where isolated incidents are amplified, misrepresented and propagated to incite common Indians against Bangladesh, its diplomatic missions and other establishments in India," the press statement said.
