Protests At Bangladesh High Commission In Delhi Over Hindu Man’s Lynching

A major protest has erupted outside the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi in the wake of the brutal killing of a Hindu man, Dipu Chandra Das, by an Islamist mob in Bangladesh’s Mymensingh last week. The demonstrations are being led by Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and Bajrang Dal to denounce alleged atrocities against Hindus and vandalism of their religious places in Bangladesh.

Protestors clashed with police and broke barricades, as they demanded accountability from Bangladeshi authorities, with some calling for justice and protection of minorities.

Tensions rose when a massive crowd of demonstrators pushed the security barricades. Protestors were chanting “Bharat Mata Ki Jai”, “Yunus Sarkar Hosh me Aao”, and “Hindu Hatiya Band Karo”. As per reports, protestors managed to break at least two layers of barricades.

“I’ll also be a Dipu, and you’ll also be a Dipu if we don’t raise our voice today,” a protestor said.

Another said, “Hindus are being killed (in Bangladesh). This (India) is the land of Ram and Krishna. We don’t kill anyone, but our sisters and daughters are raped there.”

Several demonstrators were seen holding banners and placards and raising slogans, demanding justice for Dipu Das. Protestors also burnt the effigies of Bangladesh’s interim chief, Muhammad Yunus.

Police are detaining protestors to remove the protestors from the area and contain the situation. They also managed to re-establish the barricading.

Security agencies had already been on alert in anticipation of the protest and have put in place tight security arrangements outside the building to prevent any untoward incident. The area has been secured with three layers of barricading, with troops from the police and paramilitary deployed to control the crowd.

Earlier in the day, Bangladesh expressed concern over attacks on its diplomatic missions in India, summoning the Indian High Commissioner to protest incidents in New Delhi and Siliguri.

The Bangladesh Foreign Ministry, in a statement, said, “Bangladesh condemns such acts of premeditated violence or intimidation against diplomatic establishments, which not only endanger the safety of diplomatic personnel but also undermine the principles of mutual respect and values of peace and tolerance.”

It also condemned the violence, citing threats to diplomatic personnel and establishments, and urged India to ensure their safety and security.

“The Government of Bangladesh called upon the Government of India to conduct a thorough investigation into the incidents, to take all necessary measures to prevent the recurrence of such acts and to ensure the safety and security of Bangladesh’s diplomatic missions and related facilities in India,” the statement said.

The incidents include vandalism at the Bangladesh Visa Centre in Siliguri on 22 December 2025 and a protest outside the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi on 20 December 2025.

India has dismissed allegations of inadequate security, stating the New Delhi protest was brief and posed no threat. The row stems from the killing of a Hindu youth in Bangladesh, sparking international concern over minority safety.
