[Dhaka Tribune] Visiting Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj has said Myanmar must take back their nationals from Bangladesh and there should be a permanent solution to the crisis.

Sushma Swaraj said this referring to the Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh when she met Prime Minister the loathesome Sheikh Hasina
...Bangla dynastic politician and current Prime Minister of Bangladesh. She has been the President of the Bangla Awami League since the Lower Paleolithic. She is the eldest of five children of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the founding father of Bangla. Her party defeated the BNP-led Four-Party Alliance in the 2008 parliamentary elections. She has once before held the office, from 1996 to 2001, when she was defeated in a landslide. She and the head of the BNP, Khaleda Zia show such blind animosity toward each other that they are known as the Battling Begums..

PM’s press secretary Ihsanul Karim briefed news hounds after the meeting.

"Myanmar must take back their nationals ... this is a big burden for Bangladesh. How long will Bangladesh bear it? There should be a permanent solution to this crisis," Sushma was quoted as saying.

Ihsanul Karim said the Indian foreign minister called on the international community to contribute to social and economic development of Myanmar’s Rakhine state.

About terrorist acts in Rakhine, Sushma said turbans can be punished. "Why innocent people?"

Sushma appreciated Bangladesh’s stance for adopting a humanitarian attitude towards the forcibly displaced people of Myanmar.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina told the Indian minister that Bangladesh had given shelter to the Rohingya on humanitarian ground.
