Former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said she will return to Bangladesh before the end of this year despite facing legal cases and a death sentence in absentia. In an exclusive interview with NDTV, Hasina described the charges against her as politically motivated and said her fight is for democracy and the rights of the people, not personal power. She also accused the current leadership of weakening democratic institutions and expressed concern over attacks on minority communities, saying such incidents go against the spirit of Bangladesh's independence. Her remarks come amid continuing political tensions in the country and could have significant political implications. (PC: NDTV)
