Speaking to news agency PTI, Kajol Debnath, the leader of the Hindu Buddhist Christian Unity Council stated that at least four Hindu temples had been targeted on Monday and suffered minor damages.

Furthermore, an Indian culturual centre in Dhaka was also allegedly vandalised by a mob.

In the past 24 hours, several reports of Hindu minorities being targeted in Bangladesh have surfaced. BJP MP Suvendu Adhikari claimed that many members of the Hindu community had been slaughtered amid the violence in Bangladesh.
