Bangladesh: India Almost Intervened Militarily To Support Ally Sheikh Hasina In 2009 — Here's The Story
Violent protests in Bangladesh have escalated, resulting in numerous deaths, including police officers. Initially sparked by student opposition to job reservations for freedom fighters' descendants, the protests have evolved into calls for Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's resignation. The situation mirrors past crises, notably the 2009 BDR mutiny, which nearly prompted Indian military intervention. Despite the turmoil, Hasina managed to stabilize her government by addressing the mutineers politically, leading to the disbandment of the BDR and the arrest of rebel officers.
