B'desh high growth under ousted PM Hasina was 'fake': Interim head Yunus

Quick Summary:

Yunus has demanded that India send Hasina back to Bangladesh so she can face trial for what it says are crimes against protesters and her opponents, and crimes she is accused of committing during her tenure.

In 2023, the World Bank described Bangladesh as one of the world's fastest-growing economies."Since its independence in 1971, Bangladesh has transformed from one of the poorest countries to achieving lower-middle income status in 2015," it said.

Yunus, 84, an economist and the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize winner, took charge of the South Asian country's interim government in August.
