Bangladesh stops over 50 Iskcon members from crossing into India: Reports

India Today  

Bangladesh border authorities denied permission to dozens of members of the Hindu spiritual organisation Iskcon to cross into India, despite possessing valid travel documents, according to reports. "We consulted the special branch of police and received instructions from the higher authorities not to permit them," Imtiaz Ahsanul Quader Bhuiyan, a Benapole Immigration Police officer, was quoted as saying. The border police officials claimed that the Iskon members, who were planning to attend a religious ceremony in India, reportedly had valid passports and visas but "lacked the specific government permission" required for their travel. One of the Iskcon members, Saurabh Tapandar Cheli, said, "We came to participate in a religious ceremony taking place in India but immigration officials stopped us, citing the absence of government permission".
