Violence against Hindus in B'desh 'source of concern': Jaishankar

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday expressed concern over the treatment of Hindus in Bangladesh amidst the ongoing crisis in the country.

- 

This concern was voiced during a statement in Parliament, where Jaishankar described the violence against minorities in Bangladesh as a "source of concern."

"...With regard to the treatment of minorities in Bangladesh, it has been a source of concern. There have been multiple incidents of attacks on them. We have drawn our concern to their attention. Recently Foreign Secretary visited Dhaka. This subject came up during his meeting and it is our expectation that in its own interest Bangladesh would take measures so that its minorities are safe," said Jaishankar while responding to a question by AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi in the Lok Sabha.
