Bangladesh’s Foreign Ministry has criticized Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s recent remarks regarding Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus, labeling them as incorrect and disrespectful. The Ministry emphasized the importance of maintaining a mutually beneficial relationship founded on sovereign equality and non-interference. Singh’s comments, which suggested Yunus should exercise caution in his statements, come amid a downturn in India-Bangladesh relations following the political turmoil in Bangladesh that led to the exiled Prime Minister Hasina seeking refuge in India. This diplomatic friction highlights the delicate balance between the two nations, emphasizing the need for respectful dialogue to preserve regional stability.
