The Congress party on Wednesday expressed grave concern over the "atmosphere of insecurity" reportedly being faced by religious minorities in Bangladesh, particularly in light of the recent arrest of Hindu leader Chinmoy Krishna Das.

Pawan Khera, Chairman of the Congress Media and Publicity Department, issued a statement urging the Indian government to address the matter with their Bangladeshi counterparts. He stated, "The Indian National Congress expects the government of India to prevail upon the Bangladesh government to take the necessary steps and ensure the security of life and property of minorities in the country."
