Even after the formation of an interim government in Bangladesh, people are not feeling safe. On one hand, cases of attacks on minority Hindus are continuously coming to light, while on the other hand, leaders of Sheikh Hasina’s party Awami League are trying to save their lives. Many leaders of Awami League are currently underground. To save their lives, they have to live in isolated areas away from home.
Aaj Tak took an exclusive interview of one such leader of Awami League who is going underground to save his life. During the conversation, the leader told that nothing has gone right in Bangladesh. There is still danger to his life. Therefore he is forced to leave everything and live here.
Targeting is being done selectively
This interview of the Awami League leader has been taken in an area of Dhaka itself. During the interview, when he was asked when is the possibility of improvement in the current situation in Bangladesh. On this, the Awami League leader said that the situation does not seem to be getting better at all. The rioters are selectively targeting Awami League leaders. They have to live in hiding.
Journalists are also receiving threats
The next question asked to the Awami League leader was whether he thinks that now the Awami League will never be able to make a comeback. On this he said that Awami League will return one day and Sheikh Hasina will definitely return to Bangladesh. A local journalist from Bangladesh told Aaj Tak that many local journalists there who cover the Awami League are also receiving threats. The situation is not normal at all.
