Six Bangladeshi Student Leaders Have Their Visas Denied by India Report Claims

Six Bangladeshi Student Leaders Have Their Visas Denied by India Report Claims. India has officially denied claims circulating in a section of the Bangladeshi media that it has imposed a visa ban on six student leaders from Bangladesh. According to a report by a news agency, which cited official sources in New Delhi, these reports have been dismissed as “fake news.”

Recently, several Bangladeshi media outlets reported that India had imposed a visa ban on six student leaders from Bangladesh. These reports suggested that the alleged ban was in response to the student leaders’ involvement in inciting “anti-India” sentiments.

One such report, published on September 1, prominently featured the headline “Indian visa ban on six student leaders” and included the names of the individuals purportedly affected.

In response to these claims, official sources in New Delhi have firmly rejected the reports, labeling them as “fake news.” The sources clarified that no such visa ban has been imposed on any Bangladeshi student leaders, countering the narrative being circulated in certain Bangladeshi media outlets.

The controversy arises against the backdrop of a significant student-led movement in Bangladesh that began in July. This movement rapidly gained momentum and spread across the country, culminating in the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government. On August 5, it was reported that Sheikh Hasina had fled to India amidst the unrest.

The claims of a visa ban imposed by India on six Bangladeshi student leaders have been unequivocally denied by official sources in New Delhi, who have dismissed the reports as nothing more than fake news. As tensions in Bangladesh continue to rise, it is essential to rely on verified information from credible sources to avoid the spread of misinformation.
