BJP Slams Muhammad Yunus Led Interim Regime After Mob Vandalises Rabindranath Tagore's Ancestral Home In Bangladesh

The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday (12 June) slammed Chief Advisor Muhammad Yunus led interim government, after a mob vandalised the ancestral home of Rabindranath Tagore in Bangladesh.

Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore's ancestral home, the historic Kachharibari in Bangladesh's Sirajganj district, was vandalised by a mob following a confrontation between a visitor and a museum employee.

Authorities have launched an investigation into the incident and temporarily closed the site to the public.

"We are not intruding on any international domain. But this is the topic of Rabindranath Tagore, so the BJP takes it very seriously and sensitively. On Tuesday, Rabindranath Tagore's ancestral house, located in Bangladesh, was attacked and damaged... His Kacharibari, built by his grandfather, has been attacked," BJP spokeserson and Puri MP Sambit Patra said at a press conference.

Slamming the Yunus led Interim regime in Bangladesh, Patra said that no action has been taken yet by the authorities on the incident.

"The behaviour of the Bangladesh interim government of Muhammad Yunus is not proper. No action has been taken yet. They could not protect such a significant international monument. A deplorable message goes out to the world. BJP condemns this behaviour of the interim government," he added.
