Sheikh Hasina’s abrupt and dramatic exit from Bangladesh after resigning as prime minister, similar to the dramatic departure of Gotabaya Rajapaksa in Sri Lanka just two years ago, leaves Delhi with no friends in Bangladesh. Within hours of her exit, mobs tore down a statue of the liberator of Bangladesh, Bongabandhu Mujibur Rehman, and set fire to his home in Dhaka’s Dhanmondi, where he was assassinated with 10 other family members on August 15, 1975.
