India has summoned Bangladesh’s High Commissioner in New Delhi, M. Riaz Hamidullah, to express concern over the security of its diplomatic mission in Dhaka. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs stated that certain ‘extremist groups’ in Bangladesh have created a security threat around the Indian High Commission, prompting the formal meeting on Wednesday. Officials in New Delhi indicated that the summons was also linked to recent anti-India remarks made by some Bangladeshi political figures, which India described as provocative. In its official statement, India rejected what it called a ‘false narrative’ being spread by radical elements in Bangladesh and expressed hope that the interim government would ensure the safety of all foreign missions in accordance with diplomatic norms. The development comes amid heightened political tensions in Bangladesh and growing sensitivity in India over regional security. Observers suggest that both sides may need to engage in quiet diplomacy to prevent further strain in bilateral relations.
