'I had talked to PM Modi about Sheikh Hasina', Mohammad Yunus made a big claim; told what answer he got.

Bangladesh interim government chief Mohammad Yunus is very angry about the online speech being given by Sheikh Hasina from India. Sheikh Hasina is constantly bringing the failures of the Yunus government to the world through her speech.

Now Mohammad Yunus has criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said that he had requested India to curb the online speeches of ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, which was ignored and due to this anger is raging across Bangladesh.

Speaking during a discussion at Chatham House in London recently, Yunus recalled his meeting and conversation with PM Modi. He said, "When I got a chance to talk to Prime Minister Modi, I just said that you want to host her, I cannot force you to give up that policy, but please help us ensure that she does not talk to the Bangladeshi people the way she is doing."

Why is Yunus angry with India?

Mohammad Yunus expressed disappointment and said that Sheikh Hasina sitting in India announced that she would speak on this day, this time, this hour, and the whole of Bangladesh got angry. Why is she keeping all this anger inside?

Yunus said that he had asked PM, Modi, to intervene and stop Sheikh Hasina from making further statements, to which the Indian Prime Minister reportedly replied, "This is social media, you cannot control it."

Will India return Sheikh Hasina?

When asked at Chatham House whether India was doing what Bangladesh expected, Yunus answered without hesitation, 'No'. He said that Bangladesh has written a letter to the Indian government requesting Hasina's extradition and legal proceedings are already underway.

Mohammad Yunus said, "The tribunal has started the process of hearing. Our government has sent a notice to Sheikh Hasina for the crimes she has committed, but it has not been responded to yet."

Yunus targets Indian media.

Ever since Sheikh Hasina took refuge in India after being removed from office in August 2024, the relationship between Bangladesh and India has become strained. But Yunus also stressed that Bangladesh still wants strong bilateral relations with India.

However, targeting the Indian media, Chief Advisor to the Government of Bangladesh Mohammad Yunus has expressed concern that the Indian media is spreading misinformation, which has suspicious links to top producers.
