There is tension in Bangladesh after the arrest of Chinmay Krishna Das, associated with the ISKCON temple, for sedition. A lawyer Saifullah Islam lost his life in Chittagong in the violence that broke out after Das was sent to jail. Many people have pointed fingers at ISKCON for this. Meanwhile, after the violence, an application was filed in the court to ban ISKCON. The Bangladesh government also called ISKCON a ‘fundamentalist organization’ in the court. Let us tell you that the High Court in Bangladesh has refused to ban ISKCON. The court on Thursday refused to pass a suo motu order banning the activities of ISKCON.

According to media reports, Bangladesh Supreme Court lawyer Mohammad Monir Uddin presented some newspaper related news related to ISKCON before the High Court bench on Wednesday and requested the court to take suo motu cognizance in this regard and direct the government to ban the organization and impose Section 144 in Chittagong, Rangpur and Dinajpur. Earlier, the court had asked the Attorney General to give information about the steps taken by the government in relation to the recent activities of ISKCON. Let us tell you that on Thursday, the Attorney General’s office presented this information before the bench of Justice Farah Mahboob and Justice Debashish Roy Chowdhury in the High Court when the proceedings began.
