India's Congress MP Shashi Tharoor expressed concern over the situation in Bangladesh in the aftermath of the arrest of former ISKCON leader Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari, according to ANI.

Tharoor-led the committee on external affairs has called a meeting on the situation in Bangladesh on December 11, he said.

"...If the government has something to say on behalf of the Foreign Ministry, it would be good if (External Affairs Minister) S Jaishankar comes to Parliament and tells us. We have called a meeting of the External Affairs Committee on December 11 to know the details about Bangladesh. We are concerned about whatever is going on in Bangladesh...All minorities should get democratic rights in their country," ANI quoted Shahi Tharoor.

"But it would not be appropriate to talk too much as this matter does not concern our country," Shashi Tharoor added.
