HYDERABAD: AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Thursday expressed concerns over reports of minority communities being attacked in Bangladesh.

“The govt & authorities of Bangladesh have a duty under international law to protect the life, limb and property of minorities. There are also reports that many from the country’s majority community are protecting homes & places of worship of minority communities. This should be the norm,” the Hyderabad MP posted on X.
