"I appeal to the central government to intervene in this matter and strongly raise the issue of ensuring the safety of minorities before the Bangladesh government," Gandhi Vadra, who is slated to take oath as the Wayanad MP on Thursday, said.

ISKCON Bangladesh has strongly condemned the arrest of Chinmoy Krishna Das, a prominent Hindu leader, and spokesperson for the "Bangladesh Sammilito Sanatani Jagaran Jot" and also issued a list of demands to the Muhammad Yunus-led government for subsequent violence and attacks against Sanatanis in various regions of Bangladesh.

Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has expressed deep concern over the arrest of ISKCON priest Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari in Bangladesh, calling the incident “extremely worrying.” She urged the central government to take up the matter and ensure the safety of minorities in the neighboring country.
