Bangladesh says most incidents involving minorities in 2025 were non-communal

Bangladesh's interim government reported that most incidents involving minority communities in 2025 were classified as 'criminal in nature' rather than communal, with only 71 out of 645 incidents being deemed communal. This statement follows external pressure from India to address violence against minorities and highlights the government's effort to clarify the nature of these incidents based on a yearlong review of police records.
