A protest outside the Bangladesh Assistant High Commission in Agartala escalated dramatically on Tuesday, with members of the Hindu Sangharsh Samiti breaching diplomatic protocols and creating a volatile situation.
The demonstration, initially organized to condemn alleged persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh, quickly devolved into chaos when protesters forcibly entered the High Commission's premises. Raising slogans of "Jai Shree Ram," the demonstrators expressed intense anger over the reported arrest of Chinnmoy Prabhu and targeted criticism towards Bangladesh's Chief Advisor, Muhammad Yunus.
The most provocative moment came when protesters burned the Bangladeshi national flag, dramatically heightening tensions and prompting an immediate security response. A combined contingent of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and Tripura State Rifles (TSR) was promptly deployed to control the agitated crowd.
Additional Director General of Police (DGP) arrived at the scene to restore order, managing to prevent any potential physical confrontations or further escalation. Remarkably, no injuries were reported during the intense demonstration.
The incident has raised significant concerns about the maintenance of diplomatic decorum and the security of foreign missions in the region. Local authorities are likely to conduct a thorough investigation into the breach of diplomatic premises and the inflammatory actions of the protesters.
This event underscores the complex and sensitive nature of cross-border relations and community tensions in the region.
