We had hardly any choice, was our duty as neighbour: India on giving shelter to Hasina
Indian envoy to Bangladesh Dinesh Trivedi said India had "hardly any choice" but to allow deposed Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina's aircraft to land in August 2024 amid anti-government agitation. "It was our duty as a neighbour to accept the reality of life," he stated. His remarks came amid Bangladesh's renewed demand for Hasina's extradition to Bangladesh.
