Following the arrest of Hindu leader Chinmoy Krishna Das for sedition, violence erupted in Bangladesh, highlighting deepening religious tensions amid ongoing political strife.
Bangladesh ISKCON expelled Das for disciplinary reasons, yet he continued his activities, prompting condemnation from both ISKCON branches after his arrest and the subsequent violence.
The calls from various Islamist political parties, including Hefazat-e-Islam, to ban ISKCON illustrate the volatile religious dynamics and political instability currently affecting Bangladesh.
Hasnat Abdullah, a key organizer of the protests that resulted in Sheikh Hasina's ousting, pointed fingers at ISKCON, branding it as an 'extremist' group seeking to destabilize Bangladesh.
