India, Bangladesh Clash Over Protest Coverage & Minority Safety Claims

  • India called a protest outside the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi 'misleading propaganda'.
  • Bangladesh rejected India's characterization, stating the protest caused panic and was an 'organised event'.
  • India expressed 'strong concerns' to Bangladesh over attacks on minorities and urged justice for Dipu Chandra Das's killing.
  • Bangladesh rejected any 'communal narrative', calling Das's death an 'isolated attack' not targeting minorities.
  • India suspended visa services in Chattogram due to a separate anti-India protest over Sharif Osman Hadi's death.

Why It Matters: India and Bangladesh exchange sharp words over protest coverage and minority safety concerns.
