New Delhi: Congress leader Pawan Khera on Wednesday defended former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s extended stay in the country amid calls from the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) for her extradition and said that “no one can interfere” with India’s foreign policy.
BNP Secretary Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir had earlier criticised India for providing prolonged refuge to Hasina, citing several criminal charges against her in Bangladesh.
In response, Khera firmly stated, “India has its independent international policy, and the country does not tolerate it if someone interferes in it.”
Speaking to IANS, the Congress leader also addressed recent domestic issues, including the sentencing of culprits in the Ajmer rape case after 32 years and criticised the BJP-led government for its handling of crimes against women, particularly in cases involving minors, citing the recent Badlapur case as an example of government inaction.
