MEA Says India Had No Role in Hasina's New Delhi News Conference

The Indian government on Friday again distanced itself from former Bangladesh prime minister Sheikh Hasina's news conference in New Delhi, which triggered a strong response from Dhaka, and said it had no role in the event and did not endorse anything said against the Bangladesh government.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said India had no role in Sheikh Hasina's New Delhi news conference and did not endorse remarks targeting Bangladesh's government. Hasina, who has lived in India since she fled Dhaka in August 2024 in the face of a student-led uprising, used the virtual news conference on Wednesday to signal her determination to return to Bangladesh by December despite the risk of being arrested or facing a death sentence. Bangladesh's foreign ministry expressed outrage that an "absconding convicted genocider" was allowed to hold such an event on Indian soil.
