In one other growth, two stalls promoting Bangladeshi items on the world expo in Silchar had been eliminated by the organisers after Bajrang Dal members demanded that no merchandise from the neighbouring nation be bought, citing atrocities on Hindus and different minorities there.
A group of Bajrang Dal members met the organisers and advised them that no merchandise may very well be bought on the expo, and all commercial supplies with the phrase “Bangladesh” should be eliminated instantly.
