30,000 Hindus hold rally in B'desh, demand protection from attacks

Around 30,000 Hindus rallied in Chattogram, Bangladesh, on Friday, demanding protection and withdrawal of sedition charges against Hindu leaders. The charges, including those against prominent priest Chandan Kumar Dhar, arose after the October 25 rally where a saffron flag was allegedly placed above Bangladesh flag, seen as disrespectful. Police arrested two leaders, sparking nationwide protests.
