India, Nov. 17 -- India on Monday reacted to the death sentence verdict ordered for former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina by a tribunal court for "crimes against humanity" against student protesters in Dhaka last year that led to her ouster. Notably, Hasina fled to India last year after her government was ousted.

"India remains committed to the best interests of the people of Bangladesh, including in peace, democracy, inclusion and stability in that country," the Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement.
