litton das denies his house was burned down in Bangladesh protests: ‘My family and I am currently safe and secure’

The situation in Bangladesh has been particularly dire in recent weeks, with a notable uptick in violence, amid the ongoing socio-political unrest marked by increased hostility towards the Awami League leaders and a widespread sentiment of animosity against the government among the enraged populace.

Litton Das addressed the circulating rumours and rumours about an alleged attack on his residence on August 9 by posting in Bangla on his Facebook profile.

He explained that such allegations, implying that he and his family had been attacked, were completely untrue and that no such occurrence had taken place.

He also discussed the fundamentally secular character of his nation, highlighting the fact that the country should aim to advance as a whole and make development in all spheres rather than sinking to low levels of senseless brutality. He strongly denounced the continued violence and commended his fellow residents of Dinajpur, the district and city headquarters in the Rangpur Division, for their selfless efforts in defending one another against the widespread violence.

Das reiterated the significance of unity and peace for the growth of the nation by expressing optimism that the country will stay unified and eventually free itself from all sorts of violence.

Let’s get back to cricket and the negative impact of the protests on the game. A lot of the friends, family, and acquaintances of Bangladeshi cricket players have been impacted by the nationwide student protests. Among those affected is Anamul Haque, a player for Bangladesh A who will play the Pakistan Shaheens in the coming days. Haque lost a close friend recently.

Significant talks on the future of the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 have also been sparked by the protests among the International Cricket Council and its officials. October’s tournament was originally scheduled to take place in Bangladesh; but, given the current violence, there are discussions about moving the event elsewhere.
