Bangladesh’s new government is struggling to deal with a host of issues, including a stumbling economy and human rights violations, left behind by the ouster of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina six months ago.

Thousands of protesters set fire to the home of Bangladesh's founding leader as his daughter, ousted former prime minister Sheikh Hasina, called on her supporters to stand against the interim government.

In a strongly worded statement, India Friday said comments attributed to former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina have been made in her individual capacity and New Delhi has no role to play in it.

Bangladesh has objected to a speech that its ousted prime minister Sheikh Hasina made from India and asked New Delhi to stop her making "fabricated" comments, its foreign ministry said on Friday.
