Priyanka Gandhi urges interim Bangladesh govt to ensure safety of Hindus, Christians, Buddhists
New Delhi, Aug 12: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Monday said news of continuous attacks on minorities in neighboring Bangladesh was disturbing and expressed hope that the government there would ensure the safety of Hindus, Christians and Buddhists.

"The news of continuous attacks on minorities in neighboring Bangladesh is disturbing. Discrimination, violence and attacks on the basis of religion, caste, language or identity are unacceptable in any civilized society," Priyanka Gandhi said in a post on X.
