Former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has arrived at Hindon Airport near Delhi following her dramatic flight from Bangladesh. Amid widespread protests and political turmoil in her home country, Hasina is reportedly en route to London, where she has sought political asylum.
Hasina’s aircraft, which was closely monitored by the Indian Air Force and security agencies, touched down at Hindon Airport before proceeding to be parked near the Indian Air Force’s C-17 and C-130J Super Hercules hangars. According to reports, Hasina’s son and advisor, Sajeeb Wazed Joy, revealed that the flight was prompted by security concerns for her safety, and he indicated that a political comeback for Hasina appears unlikely. Meanwhile, Bangladesh’s Army chief, Waker-Uz-Zaman, has announced the formation of an interim government to address the ongoing crisis, following Hasina’s resignation. The unrest in Bangladesh has been severe, with at least 56 people reported killed on Monday.
As Hasina prepares to continue her journey to London, where she seeks asylum, the situation in Bangladesh remains volatile. The United Kingdom has called for a United Nations-led investigation into the unrest, highlighting international concern over the escalating crisis. The developments in both Bangladesh and India are closely watched as the region navigates a period of significant uncertainty and change.
