Awami League has announced a series of political programs, including a general strike and a nationwide blockade.

In today's episode of India Global, Amid political turmoil in Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina's Awami League has called for a series of protests in February demanding the resignation of the Chief Advisor Muhammad Yunus-led interim government for its "oppression" of the minority Hindu community in Bangladesh.

According to the HRW report, "Officers involved in enforced disappearances told the agency that Sheikh and senior officers of her government had knowledge of incommunicado detentions, and that, in some cases, Hasina directly ordered enforced disappearances and killings."

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.

Law Adviser Asif Nazrul today said that if India refuses to return Sheikh Hasina, it would constitute a violation of the extradition treaty between Bangladesh and India
