Protests held at land ports along Bangladesh border in West Bengal
Lynching and protests at borders indicate potential for escalation and cross-border tensions.
Protests over the lynching of a Hindu man in Bangladesh continued for the third consecutive day in West Bengal, with BJP leaders and Hindutva organizations holding demonstrations at land ports along the border. Supporters of Hindutva organisations, including Sanatani Eikya Mancha, marched to the land ports with saffron flags, demanding action from the Bangladesh government. While trade at Petrapole remained unaffected, protests also blocked roads and led to clashes with police in Kolkata. The BJP has called for a suspension of trade if the situation in Bangladesh does not improve.
