After the state transport and tourism minister Sushanta Chowdhury and minister Sudhangshu Das, the former Chief Minister of Tripura Biplab Kumar Deb on Wednesday condemned the arrest of the Hindu priest and stated, “The ongoing attacks on Sanatani minorities, various religious institutions & Sanatani Gurus in Bangladesh are entirely undemocratic & an affront to basic human rights principles.”
