What FACTLY found

This is an old video from Bangladesh; it has nothing to do with the ongoing 2024 general elections. The person in the video is a muslim scholar named ‘Syed Irshad Ahmed Al Bhukari.’ He said this in Dinajpur, Bangladesh, in 2021, in response to India’s Yati Narsinghanand Saraswati’s comments on Islam
