USCIRF portrayal of Bangladesh religious freedom situation based on misinformation: Govt

The interim government on Thursday said the USCIRF portrayal of the religious freedom situation in Bangladesh is based on misinformation and selective reporting.
"The interim government is not responsible for the violence alleged, and the police investigations show that the incidents cited are unrelated to religious hatred," said the Chief Adviser press wing in a statement.
The USCIRF (United States Commission on International Religious Freedom) released its 2025 Annual Report on March 25.
The report documents religious freedom conditions in 2024 and recommends policy to the White House, Congress and State Department to advance freedom of religion or belief (FoRB) abroad.
