Bangladesh summons Indian high commissioner
It is worth noting that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bangladesh summoned Indian High Commissioner to Bangladesh Pranay Verma today to express his attention to the protests in New Delhi.
“Bangladesh condemns such premeditated acts of violence or intimidation against diplomatic institutions, which not only endanger the safety of diplomatic personnel but also undermine the principle of mutual respect and the values of peace and tolerance,” the Bangladesh Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement.
“The Bangladesh government calls on the Indian government to conduct a thorough investigation into the incident, take all necessary measures to prevent the recurrence of such acts, and ensure the safety of Bangladeshi diplomatic missions in India and related facilities,” the statement said.
These incidents include vandalism at the Bangladesh Visa Center in Siliguri on December 22, 2025, and protests outside the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi on December 20, 2025.
