Sheikh Hasina’s India Stay Extended: Ousted Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s India stay has been extended by the Centre as part of a “long-term arrangement" amid calls for her extradition from Dhaka, official sources told CNN-News18.

Officials privy to the matter said her extended stay was a special arrangement as India has a tradition of taking care of its guests (referring to the Atithi Devo Bhava motto).

They said Hasina had stayed in India previously for a long while following her father’s assassination in 1975.
