Mamata Banerjee wishes to see development in her states's relationship with Bangladesh under new interim government's rule

By IBNS
Aug 9, 2024 ..

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said on Friday that she wished to see her state's relationship with the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government of Bangladesh see further development in future.


"I wish for Bangladesh's development, peace, progress, and betterment of people from all walks of life. My best wishes to everyone from students, youth, workers, farmers, and women there," Banerjee posted on X.

"Hopefully, the crisis will end very soon and peace will return," she said in her X post written in Bangla.

Signalling the beginning of a new era after 15 years of Sheikh Hasina's regime, Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus took oath as the head of the interim government in Bangladesh on Thursday.

"I will uphold, support and protect the constitution and will perform my duties sincerely," Yunus said at the swearing-in event.

The 84-year-old, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006 for pioneering microcredit and microfinance, which he put into action through the Grameen Bank, was sworn in hours after he returned to Dhaka from Paris, where he had been undergoing medical treatment.

The oath was administered by President Mohammed Shahabuddin at his official residence, Bangabhaban.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended his best wishes to Yunus and said India is hoping for an early return to normalcy in Bangladesh, which would also ensure the safety of Hindus and other minorities.

"My best wishes to Professor Muhammad Yunus on the assumption of his new responsibilities. We hope for an early return to normalcy, ensuring the safety and protection of Hindus and all other minority communities. India remains committed to working with Bangladesh to fulfil the shared aspirations of both our peoples for peace, security and development," PM Modi wrote on X.

Bangladesh witnessed turmoil in recent weeks which began with students protesting against job quota and then it slowly spiralled into a mass movement that demanded former PM Sheikh Hasina's resignation.

The violence led to the death of over 300 people.

The showdown took a new turn when former PM Sheikh Hasina was forced to resign which led to the toppling of her government and ending her 15-year rule.

Hasina escaped to India in a helicopter.
