The rhetoric between India and Bangladesh has intensified regarding the demonstration outside the Bangladesh High Commission in the Indian capital New Delhi. This demonstration was organized in protest against the murder of Hindu youth Dipu Chandra Das in Bangladesh.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal made it clear that this demonstration was very small and peaceful. There was no threat to the security of Bangladesh High Commission.
He said that misleading propaganda is being spread in some media organizations of Bangladesh regarding this incident. The reality is that only 20 to 25 youth were involved in the demonstration.
Bangladesh has rejected India’s statement and said that the situation was much more serious than this. Dhaka said that it is not right to call this incident a misleading propaganda.

Bangladesh said- India described the matter as light
Bangladesh’s Foreign Affairs Advisor M. Tauheed Hossain said that India has presented this incident in a more light than necessary.
He raised questions as to how a group of 25–30 people reached such a secure diplomatic area. He said that under normal circumstances this should not have been possible unless he was allowed to reach there.
Tauheed Hussain also said that the slogans raised in the demonstration were not limited only to protest against the murder, but other statements were also made. He claimed that the news published in Bangladeshi media was not misleading and was largely true.
Tauheed Hossain is the advisor on foreign affairs in the interim government led by Mohammad Yunus in Bangladesh.
Dipu murdered on false charges of blasphemy
A big revelation has come to light in the case of a Hindu youth who was killed in an attack by violent protesters in Bangladesh late Thursday night.
It was being claimed that deceased Dipu Chandra Das had made comments on Facebook that hurt religious sentiments. But now no evidence of any such comment has been found in the investigation.
Mohammad Shamsuzzaman, company commander of Bangladesh’s Rapid Action Battalion, told Bangladeshi newspaper ‘The Daily Star’ that no evidence has been found to say that Das had written anything on Facebook that could hurt religious sentiments.
So far 12 people have been arrested in the case of Deepu’s murder.
A Hindu youth was beaten to death by protesters in Bhaluka, near Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh.
Even colleagues are not aware of blasphemy
Dipu Chandra Das, 25, who was killed in the attack, worked in a textile factory in Bhaluka, near Dhaka. He was murdered outside this factory.
Shamsuzzaman said that no information related to blasphemy has been received from the local people and those who worked with Das in the garment factory.
He told that no such person has been found who has claimed that he himself has heard or seen anything like blasphemy which has hurt the religion.
According to BBC Bangla report, Das’s body was stripped naked, hung from a tree and set on fire. Its video is going viral on social media in which people are seen raising slogans of ‘Allah-Hu-Akbar’.
The protesters stripped the young man’s body, hung it from a tree and set it on fire.
