After death threats in Dhaka, Ramakrishna Math in touch with PMO

June 18, 2016 01:52

Following death threat to a member of Ramakrishna Math and Ramakrishna Mission in Dhaka, authorities of the Order have written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee apprising them of the situation.

"Our general secretary wrote a letter to both of them requesting to look into the matter. We explained what has happened in Dhaka," a monk of the Order, headquartered in Belur near here, told PTI.

He said both of them have expressed their anxiousness in the matter and offered all possible help.

"After the incident, we are in constant touch with the PM's Office. Our chief minister also called us up. We are also in touch with the high commission in Dhaka and adequate security arrangements have been made," the monk said.

The Mission had received a threat letter on Wednesday which said the member will be killed if he continued to preach his religion amid a spate of targeted murders across Bangladesh by suspected militants in recent months.
