Former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina left the country with her sister Sheikh Rehana and took shelter in India on August 5 after resigning in the face of mass protests. He can legally stay in India for 45 days by leaving the country on a diplomatic passport. His visa expires today. On the other hand, the interim government canceled his diplomatic passport. As a result, there are questions about what is actually going to happen to his fate.
Recently, according to the report of the Indian media Zee News, questions have arisen in political circles about the law under which Sheikh Hasina will stay in India from Friday (September 20).
According to the report, on Tuesday (September 17), a spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of India said that there is no possibility that Sheikh Hasina will be handed over to Bangladesh even though her diplomatic passport has expired.
It has been said that Sheikh Hasina may be given temporary political asylum like the Dalai Lama of Tibet. The report also mentioned that his stay in India now depends on the country’s decision as the Bangladesh government canceled his diplomatic passport.
Zee News reported that Bangladesh Foreign Secretary said on Tuesday that they do not know under which law Sheikh Hasina is in India. Dhaka did not want to know anything about this from India. The media also said that India can give shelter to anyone if it wants.
Before recently, the head of the interim government. Muhammad Yunus gave a long interview to Indian news agency Press Trust of India (PTI). In this interview, he commented that it is necessary to return Sheikh Hasina to the country for the justice of the brutality that happened during the previous government.

Dr. Yunus said that no one is feeling comfortable in India because of his position. Because we want him back. What he is saying from there is causing problems. If he had remained silent, we would have forgotten him. If he were in his own world, the people would have forgotten about it. But he is staying in India giving various instructions. No one is taking this well.
He said, we have said quite strongly, he should keep quiet. This is unfriendly behavior towards us. He has taken refuge there and is campaigning from there. Not so – he went there the normal way. He went there because of popular upheaval and public outrage.
