AAP leaders expressed solidarity with Bangladeshi Hindu leader Chinmoy Krishna Das, arrested in Bangladesh on sedition charges. They urged the Indian government to engage diplomatically to ensure the safety of ISKCON devotees.

Chinmoy Krishna Das, a Hindu priest and minority rights advocate in Bangladesh, was arrested and denied bail on sedition charges. India's ministry of external affairs expressed concern, noting attacks on minorities protesting Das's arrest.

Former Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina on Thursday backed the arrested Hindu monk, Chinmoy Krishna Das, saying he was "unjustly arrested" and must immediately be released. She asked the Bangladesh government to protect religious and ethnic minorities that have braved violence since her ouster from power in August.
