DHAKA: Asserting that the demolition of the residence of Bangladesh founder Sheikh Mujibur Rahman is the country’s internal matter, the interim government on Sunday said India’s remarks on the incident was “unexpected and unwarranted”.
India on Thursday voiced anguish over the destruction of the historic residence and said the “act of vandalism” should be strongly condemned.
Bangladesh foreign ministry on Sunday said the incident at Dhanmondi 32 pertains to the country’s internal affairs. “Bangladesh does not officially comment on the internal affairs of any state, and it expects the same conduct from others,” an official said.
