Anti-India sentiment in Bangladesh is fueled by a perception among opposition groups and student organizations that former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and New Delhi are inseparable. This view, often amplified by rivals and radical Islamist groups, portrays Hasina's Awami League as pro-India and pro-Hindu. While India has viewed Hasina as a key ally for regional stability and alignment, resentment towards India has intensified in Bangladesh, particularly following recent controversial elections and a death sentence handed to Hasina.
