India: Bangladesh presses Delhi over Sheikh Hasina speech

The article covers two separate news stories. First, it reports that the Indian government denied any involvement in a planned remote speech by Bangladesh's former leader Sheikh Hasina, who is currently living in India after being ousted in 2024. The speech, organized by a private media entity, is part of an event called 'Sheikh Hasina's Homecoming.' The Indian government spokesperson emphasized that it has no role in the event and does not endorse any views expressed there. Second, the article discusses a protest led by Arvind Kejriwal, a political rival of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, against the introduction of E20 fuel, which contains 20% ethanol. Kejriwal accused Modi of introducing the fuel under pressure from U.S. President Donald Trump, claiming it damages vehicles. The government defended the E20 fuel as having undergone rigorous testing and remains committed to its implementation as part of efforts to reduce reliance on imported oil.

While the government defends the policy as scientifically tested, the narrative emphasizes public
