Concern over radicalisation of Indian students in B'desh
The New Indian Express Kozhikode
|November 23, 2025
POSSIBLE radicalisation of Indian students studying in Bangladesh may soon emerge as a major security concern for India, sources in the intelligence agencies said on Saturday.
According to the sources, over 8,000 Indian medical students were studying in Bangladesh at the time when the country went through a political crisis in 2024 that led to the ouster of then Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Inputs emerging from the neighbouring country suggest that there are a number of the students studying across Dhaka, Sylheti, Rajshahi and Chittagong medical colleges, and they have become the target of ideological grooming by radical elements, who received prominence in the country since PM Hasina was ousted from power, the sources said.
