An ISKCON temple in Meherpur, located in Bangladesh’s Khulna division, was vandalised and set on fire as unrest continues to sweep the country following the resignation and departure of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
The attack on the ISKCON temple is part of a broader wave of violence that has targeted multiple Hindu temples across Bangladesh in the last 24 hours. ISKCON spokesperson Yudhistir Govinda Das confirmed the incident, stating, "As per the info I have received, one of our ISKCON centers (rented) in Meherpur was burnt including with the deities of Lord Jagannath, Baladev, and Subhadra Devi. Three devotees who lived in the center somehow managed to escape & survived (sic)."
