Bangladesh has not outlawed Indian TV stations in the country, contrary to reports the government pulled the plug on all Indian satellite channels as tensions soared between the South Asian neighbours.

Earlier Bangladesh's interim government led by Chief Advisor Muhammad Yunus was seeking to renegotiate the 2017 deal with Adani and alleged that Adani withheld tax benefits.

There are a lot of folks outside Bangladesh who are rooting for this democratic transition to work and can bring some expertise to the table. The government should seek technical assistance, monitoring, and reporting by the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights and other UN rights experts.

This is the second meeting between Soros and Yunus in three months after the duo met in New York last year in October - weeks after the Nobel laureate took charge following the fall of the Sheikh Hasina regime.

This comes as the first major demonstration by the Awami League, whose most of the leaders have either been arrested or underground since the fall of the Hasina-led government on August 5 last year following a students-led anti-discrimination movement.

Dhaka, Bangladesh — On the afternoon of July ... the party fell to a bloody student-led uprising supported by the military, and Sheikh Hasina’s image as a leader is severely tarnished ...
