BJP MP Basvaraj Bommai condemns Bangladesh's actions against Hindus, accusing the government of polarizing society and converting it into an Islamic nation. The arrest of ISKCON's Chinmoy Krishna Das highlights tensions,

Chinmoy Krishna Das, a Hindu priest and minority rights advocate in Bangladesh, was arrested and denied bail on sedition charges. India's ministry of external affairs expressed concern, noting attacks on minorities protesting Das's arrest.

Iskcon had earlier expelled Chinmoy Krishna Das who was arrested earlier this week and was slapped with sedition charges. Bangladeshi media has reported that the sedition charges were levelled against Das because he flew a religious flag above Bangladesh's national flag in a religious congregation in Bangladesh.
