Bangladesh on Thursday formally protested to India over the activities of ousted former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina during her stay in the country, labeling them as provocative. Foreign Affairs Adviser Md Touhid Hossain stated that the Indian Deputy High Commissioner was summoned in the absence of the High Commissioner and handed a protest note.

Bangladesh has lodged strong protest against the "false and fabricated statements" made by the former prime minister Sheikh Hasina. Hasina delivered a speech via social media last night, triggering destruction of Bangabandhu Memorial Museum in Dhanmondi and murals of Sheikh Mujibir Rahman in various parts of the country last night.
