Bangladesh's interim government is facing criticism after 49 Hindu teachers were forced to resign following Sheikh Hasina's ouster on August 5. Amidst violent student-led protests, religious minorities have been targeted, including looting and attacks on temples. Noted author Taslima Nasreen condemned Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus' silence, stating, "Yunus says nothing against it." The United Nations announced a fact-finding mission to investigate human rights violations during the unrest, which claimed over 1,000 lives, marking Bangladesh's deadliest conflict since independence.
