"Our Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, is deeply concerned about the unfortunate incidents occurring in Bangladesh. The government is closely monitoring the situation and taking appropriate action to address the issue," he added.

He further criticised the opposition for their lack of response to Hindu-related issues. "When incidents occur in Gaza or other Muslim-majority countries, opposition parties are quick to show solidarity with candlelight vigils. However, they remain silent when it comes to issues related to Hindu organisations," Sharma later said. (ANI)
