Bangladesh on Tuesday summoned India’s envoy to protest incidents near its diplomatic missions in India, citing security concerns. The Bangladesh Foreign Ministry said demonstrations outside the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi and the visa centre in Siliguri endangered diplomatic staff. Protests by groups including the Vishva Hindu Parishad led police to use crowd-control measures after barricades were breached. Dhaka condemned what it called acts of intimidation against diplomatic establishments. The move comes amid strained ties linked to unrest in Bangladesh and the exile of former prime minister Sheikh Hasina in India. Bangladesh has suspended visa services at some missions, citing safety concerns. (PC: India Today)
