Bangladesh Protests: Former Indian Diplomat Blames Economic Strain, Political Opportunists

Former Indian Foreign Secretary and ex-Ambassador to Bangladesh, Harsh Vardhan Shringla, has analysed the ongoing crisis in Bangladesh, attributing it to a mix of economic hardship, political opportunism, and possible foreign interference. Shringla emphasised that while the protests ostensibly stem from issues like job quotas, deeper economic problems—including the impact of COVID-19 and the Ukraine conflict—have exacerbated the situation. He suggested that political groups like the BNP and Jamaat-e-Islami, as well as foreign actors, may be fueling the unrest to their advantage, contributing to the volatility in Bangladesh. #bangladeshprotests #SheikhMujiburRahmanStatue #MujiburRahmanStatueVandalised #bangladeshnews #sheikhhasina #bangladeshnewsupdate #studentprotest #bangladeshantigovtprotests #bangladeshjobquotaprotest #bangladeshreservation #latestnews #breakingnews ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.102~GR.125~
