National Citizen Party (NCP) South Organizing Chief Hasnat Abdullah issued a fiery warning against what he termed Delhi’s dominance in Bangladesh politics. Speaking at a protest rally organized by Inquilab Mancha in Dhaka’s Shahbagh area on Saturday, December 13, Abdullah declared that the ‘throne of Delhi’ would be burned in Bangladesh, denouncing any external interference in the country’s internal affairs.

Abdullah referenced the recent killing of Osman Hadi, saying the incident struck the conscience of every Bangladeshi. He criticized individuals and groups who previously supported the ruling Awami League but are now re-emerging under new identities as intellectuals or cultural activists. The NCP leader also vowed that fascist forces, regardless of their political labels, would find no place in Bangladesh.

His remarks reflect growing nationalist rhetoric among opposition-aligned groups amid heightened political tensions. Analysts note that such statements could further strain Bangladesh-India relations and intensify domestic polarization ahead of possible political realignments.
