Bangladesh Unrest: Amid the ongoing tensions in Bangladesh, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has expressed concern and sought the intervention of the Centre to stop the violence against minorities.

RSS publicity head Sunil Ambekar on Tuesday said the Indian government should take "more concrete steps" to stop the atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh and also speak to other countries for this purpose.

His remark came while he was speaking at an event in Nagpur held under the banner of 'Sakal Hindu Samaj' to condemn attacks on minority Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and other communities in the neighbouring country.

Every Hindu should be outraged by what is happening in Bangladesh, he said, adding, "The Indian government should take more concrete steps."

The Bangladesh government should ensure that atrocities against Hindus stop and the guilty are punished, and the Indian government should speak with other countries as part of efforts to stop these atrocities, Ambekar said.

If it yielded no positive outcome, India will have to find some other remedy, Ambekar said.

Certain global powers were behind those creating trouble in Bangladesh, and "we need to identify such powers and expose them and tell them to stop such things with regard to Hindus in our country and in other countries as well," he said.
