In the wake of escalating violence against minorities in Bangladesh, hundreds have taken to the streets of Dhaka to demand urgent protections for Hindus and other vulnerable communities. Following the ousting of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in August, minority groups report a significant increase in threats and attacks, perceived as reprisals due to their support for her regime.
