    An ISKCON temple was vandalized in Noakhali city in Bangladesh
    Digital Desk: The incident follows a series of attacks on religious places in Bangladesh in recent months. Around 200 people are alleged to have vandalized the ISKCON Radhkanta temple in Dhaka on Thursday.

    Last evening, when devotees were preparing for the Gaura Purnima celebration, a mob of 200 people entered the premises of Shri Radhakanta Temple, Dhaka, three devotees were injured in a scuffle.

    Tension gripped Bangladesh last year after incidents of vandalism and attacks on temples.

    In October, an ISKCON temple in Noakhali was vandalized and one person died. Three more were killed over allegations of a Quran desecrated at a Durga Puja pavilion in Bangladesh.

    As more reports of such vandalism and attacks came in, India had said it was in very close contact with the authorities in Dhaka and at local levels and that Bangladesh had reacted promptly to ensure control including the deployment of the law enforcement machinery.
