After the US, Elon Musk now plans to shake up UK politics with a $100 million donationRelations between Bangladesh and India, which nosedived following the ouster of Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in August, appear set to deteriorate further. A sharpening of Muslim-Hindu conflict in Chittagong, the second most important part of Bangladesh after capital Dhaka, has exacerbated tension with India further. The Hindu-Muslim conflict, which is at the root of the tension now, is embedded in the domestic politics of both Bangladesh and India. That has its own dynamics, exacerbating tension and making it doubly difficult to solve. Slain Assistant Public Prosecutor Sayful Islam Alif The port city and trading centre of Chittagong has been a hotbed of ethnic, linguistic and religious conflict for decades. Earlier, the fight was between Bengali Muslims and the indigenous Buddhist Chakma tribe in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT). Now it is a fight between the Bengali Muslim majority (87 percent) and the Bengali Hindus (11 percent) in Chittagong. While Muslims are seen by Hindus as being backed by the Bangladeshi State, the Hindus are perceived by the Muslims to be backed by Bangladesh’s neighbour and regional power, India, where an aggressive Hindu nationalism is ruling the roost. During the violent mass movement of July-August this year which ousted Sheikh Hasina, agitators attacked numerous Hindu properties as Hindus were seen as Hasina’s support base. These attacks instilled mortal fear among the Hindus whose population had already dwindled from about 30 percent in 1947 to about eight percent due to continuous State-backed Islamic intolerance over the years. However, the communal situation in Bangladesh as a whole calmed down in November and this year’s Durga festival of the Hindus went off without any incident. Trouble in Chittagong But trouble was brewing in Chittagong, which has traditionally been a bastion of Islamic radicalism and also Hindu assertion, according to a Bangladeshi social and political commentator Afsan Chowdhury. The headquarters of the Hefazat-e-Islam (Protection of Islam) with its large network of Madrasahs, are in Chittagong. The Hefazat stands for Sharia in Bangladesh. Because of its control of the Madrasahs, it has been wooed by Hasina’s Awami League and Khaleda Zia’s Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP). Hefazat, for example, made Hasina cut off Hindu authors from Bangladeshi school text books. Islamists of Chittagong have been looking at the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) as a proselytising organisation with a strong base in India and Western countries. In the popular imagination, ISKCON is seen as an arm of India. The Hefazat and the Jamaat-e-Islami have even called for a ban on it. On their part, militant Hindus had recently organised massive demonstrations and threatened to march to Dhaka if the Interim Government failed to protect the community from Islamists and anti-Hasina forces. The recent trouble sparked off when the Hindu organisation Sammilito Sanatan Jagaran Jote held a demonstration in which its flag was seen flying above the Bangladeshi national flag. For this, monk Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari of the Sammilito Sanatan Jagaran Jote was arrested amidst a skirmish between his followers and the police. In the clash, Assistant Public Prosecutor Sayful Islam Alif was killed. Sayful is said to be a Jammat-i-Islami man who had sought a ban on ISKCON. However, ISKCON made it clear at a press conference that monk Chinmoy had been expelled from ISKCON earlier for misbehaving with a child. Therefore, the organisation would not shoulder any responsibility over his statements. ISKCON Bangladesh’s General Secretary Charu Chandra Das Brahmachari, in a written statement, said that Leelaraj Gour Das, head of Prabartak Sri Krishna Mandir, Gaurang Das, and Chinmoy Krishna Das, head of Sri Sri Pundarik Dham in Chattogram, were expelled from ISKCON Bangladesh for breaching discipline of the organisation in July. That’s why any actions of these persons do not represent ISKCON Bangladesh, the statement added. However, the allegations stuck to ISKCON and created waves in India. Demand for arrest Sayful Islam Alif’s funeral was attended by leaders of the students’ movement which ousted Sheikh Hasina in August. Hasnat Abdullah, the convener of the Students Against Discrimination (SAD), demanded the arrest of ISKCON persons allegedly involved in the killing of the lawyer within the next 24 hours. Hasnat Abdulla also demanded a ban on ISKCON, saying, “There will be co-existence of all religions in our country, and we will work to protect the rights of all. But if an extremist organisation is run in the name of religion, they will not be given space here. My brother Sayful has been murdered brutally. ISKCON must be banned as a terrorist organisation.” But on Thursday, Bangladesh’s High Court refused to ban ISKCON. Hasnat Abdullah alleged that ISKCON was in favour of the fallen Hasina regime. “We did not forget how ISKCON created anarchy in Bangladesh, in favour of dictator Awami League as per the prescription of India. The people of Bangladesh will resist whatever conspiracies are hatched from India. We want to say categorically that the Awami League will never be rehabilitated in Bangladesh,” he said. As per media reports, Chinmoy is a radical leader too. He told a mass rally in Chittagong’s Laldighi ground, “If anyone wants to evict us (the Hindus) from this country and live in peace, it will become Afghanistan or Syria. There will be no democratic force. Bangladesh will become a sanctuary of communalism.” The arrest of Chinmoy had reverberations in New Delhi. The Indian External Affairs Ministry (MEA) expressed “deep concern”. In a statement, it said, “This incident follows multiple attacks on Hindus and other minorities by extremist elements in Bangladesh”. The MEA called upon the interim Government of Bangladesh to “ensure safety and security of Hindus and all minorities.” New Delhi is annoyed by regular declarations from the leaders of the Interim Government, including Chief Advisor Dr. Muhammad Yunus, that Hasina would be brought back from refuge in India, to face trial. However, till date, Dhaka has not formally asked for her extradition, perhaps not to put New Delhi in a fix. Responding to New Delhi’s remarks, Dhaka said Delhi’s statement was “contrary to facts.” A statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bangladesh said that India had said “on a matter concerning the internal affairs of Bangladesh”, and added, “such unfounded statements not only misrepresent facts but also stand contrary to the spirit of friendship and understanding between the two neighbouring countries”. The Bangladesh Government also described the killing of advocate Sayful Alif as “brutal”. With the Indian media being spiteful about the peoples’ movement against Hasina, linking it to Islamic extremism and Pakistan’s machinations, and the Bangladeshi media harping on alleged Indian conspiracies to dominate Bangladesh, relations between the two countries have little or no chance of improving in the foreseeable future. Geographical location However, right-thinking Bangladeshi intellectuals rue the turn of events and see the disadvantages of an India-Bangladesh conflict to both countries. They are aware of the geographical location of Bangladesh which is surrounded on three sides by India and on one side by the Bay of Bengal. They also know that Bangladesh is heavily dependent on trade with India. It depends on India for river waters too. India too needs Bangladesh’s cooperation to prevent Islamic militants and the North Eastern tribal militants from securing hideouts in Bangladesh to plan attacks on India. Friendship with Bangladesh is also needed to minimise the threat from China which is expanding its footprint in South Asia. Since the issues are deep and formal relations are cold, informal contacts (track-two diplomacy) could help heal the deep wounds inflicted by the cataclysmic events of this year and set the stage for a formal rapprochement. But since domestic political interests influence foreign relations, communal politics in Bangladesh and India will continue to vitiate bilateral relations.

Stunning $4M Connecticut mansion destroyed in Thanksgiving fire when owner tried to fry turkey in the garage By ALYSSA GUZMAN FOR DAILYMAIL.COM Published: 19:31 GMT, 30 November 2024 | Updated: 19:32 GMT, 30 November 2024 e-mail 1 View comments A gigantic fire erupted inside a $4 million Connecticut mansion after residents attempted to fry a turkey in the garage on Thanksgiving . Firefighters faces several challenges on the holiday afternoon after the stunning mansion at 40 Weston Road in Weston went up in flames. The aggressive fire quickly spread throughout the home, and soon, its structural collapse created dangerous conditions for responding firefighters. Residents were attempting to fry a turkey for the big meal Thursday afternoon when the garage caught fire and began 'rapidly extending into the residence,' according to Weston Volunteer Fire Department . 'Firefighters attempted an aggressive fire attack, however, their efforts were thwarted by dangerous fire conditions and structural collapse,' the department, which battled the flames for 16 hours, wrote in a Facebook post. In addition to the gigantic flames ripping through the home, first responders hit a major setback when water flow stopped for 'several minutes' after a 'vehicle drove over the water supply hose,' damaging it. The identity of the turkey chef was not released by authorities, but the home is owned by Tweedy, Brown Managing Director Thomas H. Shrager, according to public records. Photos released by the fire department show massive flames ripping through the home and extending several feet outside the home through broken windows.

Video of the fire, posted by a commenter, shows a menacing wave of orange glaring through the trees along the roadway as the sky blackened with smoke around 5 pm. The fire started shortly before 4 pm. The Weston home, located roughly 30 miles outside of New Haven, has been deemed 'uninhabitable.' Despite the dramatic photos of the blaze, no injuries were reported. However, it remains unclear how many people were inside the house when the garage fire began. Six other fire department had to assist the volunteer crew, while Ridgefield Fire Department provided town coverage while Weston battled the mansion fire. The official cause of the fire is still under investigation, but a preliminary investigation suggests it's the result of trying a turkey. This Thanksgiving, several unique turkey cooking methods made the rounds on social media.

Hail Flutie: BC celebrates 40th anniversary of Miracle in MiamiNYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch made a round of administrative appointments Thursday, naming new heads to the department’s public information and technology bureaus. Tisch named Delaney Kempner as the new Deputy Commissioner of Public Information, replacing controversial top spokesman Tarik Sheppard . Kempner has spent the last four years as director of communications for New York State Attorney General Letitia James. Kempner will not start until Jan. 13. In the interim, Assistant Commissioner Carlos Nieves will serve as acting DCPI, officials said. Sheppard will be put back in uniform and assigned a leadership role in the department, law enforcement sources said. Other appointments include Kristine Ryan as Deputy Commissioner of Management and Budget — marking the second time she has been in this role — and Yisroel Hecht as the department’s new Deputy Commissioner of Information Technology. Hecht is currently serving as Deputy Commissioner of Infrastructure Management for the New York City Office of Technology and Innovation. Tisch named Alex Crohn as Deputy Commissioner of Strategic Initiatives and Steven Harte as Deputy Commissioner of Support Services. “This group of skilled and experienced leaders will answer the public call to transform NYPD technology, modernize our fleet, and elevate the department’s voice to make Courtesy, Professionalism, and Respect central to our communication and interaction with the people we serve,” Commissioner Tisch said Thursday. “New Yorkers should have every confidence that these appointments make their police department stronger, our service better, and our city safer.” In one of his last acts as DCPI, Sheppard attended a luncheon at police headquarters for local media Thursday, where he thanked the press and his staff for getting out important information and sharing the NYPD’s story with the public. He pointed to the arrest of accused CEO killer Luigi Mangione as an example of how DCPI and the press worked together to distribute images of the gunman, which ultimately led to his arrest. Sheppard was considered one of the most visual, outspoken, and sometimes volatile public information commissioners in the department’s recent history He was often front and center at press conferences and was seen wearing a bullet-resistant vest at high-profile operations such as when the NYPD cleared the Columbia University campus of protesters. He also defended NYPD executives’ controversial use of social media to blast reporters and legislators they disagree with. During the New York Marathon last month, while he was temporarily reassigned as former Interim Police Commissioner Thomas Donlan’s Chief of Staff, Sheppard got into a public shouting match with the NYPD’s top cop . Nearby NYPD officers had to separate the two men, witnesses said. Tisch was sworn in as NYPD commissioner on Nov. 25. One of her first acts in office was to name longtime aide Ryan Merola, who had worked with her at the Department of Sanitation and other agencies, as her chief of staff .According to the party members, Duterte's statements against the First Couple had no place in democracy and at a "Bagong Pilipinas" that values accountability, peace, and order. Members of the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP) have renewed their support for President Marcos and First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos as they condemned the recent threat of assassination made against them. "We reaffirm our unwavering support for the administration of President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos, Jr., trusting that under his leadership, democracy, the rule of law, and national progress will prevail," they said. PFP members said this in a joint statement after Vice President Sara Duterte announced that she had contracted an assassin to kill the First Couple and House Speaker Martin Romualdez if she was murdered. "We, the members of the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas (PFP), strongly and unequivocally condemn any attacks against our democracy," the members said. "We reject all forms of violence, threats, or actions that jeopardize the safety of our people and the stability of our nation," they added. According to the party members, Duterte's statements against the First Couple had no place in democracy and at a "Bagong Pilipinas" that values accountability, peace, and order. "The statements made by Vice President Sara Duterte against the President and the First Lady are deeply alarming as they undermine the rule of law and foster a culture of lawlessness and impunity," they said. The PFP members urged the country's leaders to transcend personal and political interests, prioritize unity over division, and commit to fostering peace and moral recovery. "As public servants, we must exemplify humility, discipline, and accountability in both our words and actions," they said. "Now more than ever, we call on our fellow public servants and the Filipino people to stand in solidarity with the President and work together to safeguard the future of our nation," they added. During a Zoom presser, Vice President Duterte said she had already asked someone to go after the three in case something happened to her. "May kinausap na ako na tao. Sinabi ko sa kanya, 'Kapag pinatay ako, patayin mo si BBM, si Liza Araneta, at si Martin Romualdez.' (I have already talked to someone and told him that if I got killed, kill BBM, Liza Araneta, and Martin Romualdez). No joke. No joke," she said. "Nagbilin na ako, Ma'am. 'Pag namatay ako, sabi ko, ''Wag kang tumigil ha, hanggang hindi mo mapatay sila.' (I told him that if I died, don't stop until you have killed them). And then he said yes," she added. Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin has tapped the Presidential Security Command (PSC) to take immediate, proper action on Vice President Sara Duterte's threat to the life of the First Couple. "The Executive Secretary has referred this active threat to the Presidential Security Command for immediate proper action," the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) said. "Any threat to the life of the President must always be taken seriously, more so that this threat has been publicly revealed in clear and certain terms," it added. In a statement late Saturday afternoon, the PSC said it has already heightened and strengthened its security protocols following the Vice President's pronouncements. "We are also closely coordinating with law enforcement agencies to detect, deter, and defend against any and all threats to the President and the First Family," it said. The PSC said it was taking Vice President Duterte's remarks seriously and considering it a matter of national security. "Any threat to the life of the President and the First Family, regardless of its origin—and especially one made so brazenly in public—is treated with the utmost seriousness," it said. "We consider this a matter of national security and shall take all necessary measures to ensure the President's safety," it added.
