From now on, this Court has called on social media networks to be more responsible. ‘No mosques were burned’Information and Culture Minister Sushanta Chowdhury stated that the police investigated and discovered that no mosque had been burned in the Panisagar sub-division of North Tripura district, as alleged by social media posts. In the meantime, considering the attacks on minorities in Bangladesh, the state administration of Assam has issued an alert and instructed district officials to closely watch the situation. Anti-Hindu attacks later spread across the country, leading to the law enforcers retaliating with gunshots in some places. At least five people died in clashes with police while three Hindu men were killed during the attacks.
