The aircraft is currently heading towards Delhi, and it is believed that Bangladesh\u2019s former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, along with members of her entourage, is on board.<\/p>\n<p>The surveillance of AJAX1431 comes amid heightened tensions following Hasina\u2019s recent resignation and her departure from Dhaka. The sudden political shift has created ripples across the region, prompting Indian authorities to exercise heightened vigilance.<\/p>\n<p>According to reliable sources within Indian defence circles, the C-130 aircraft was first tracked as it approached the Indian airspace. The plane\u2019s trajectory and the presence of high-profile passengers have raised significant interest among security officials. Measures are being taken to ensure the safe passage and potential arrival of the aircraft in the capital.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are monitoring the situation very closely,\u201d an Indian defence spokesperson confirmed. \u201cAll necessary precautions are being taken to ensure that the aircraft is safely escorted to its destination. The safety and security of our airspace are of utmost importance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sheikh Hasina\u2019s presence on the aircraft is seen as a critical development in the ongoing political saga in Bangladesh. Her resignation has left a leadership vacuum, and her movements are being watched with keen interest both domestically and internationally.<\/p>\n<p>Sources suggest that the Indian government is preparing to provide asylum to Hasina, should she request it. The historical ties between India and Bangladesh could play a crucial role in the unfolding events. India\u2019s role as a stabilizing force in the region may see it offering refuge and support to the beleaguered former leader.<\/p>\n<p>The international community is also closely observing the situation. Diplomatic channels are abuzz with speculation and strategic discussions about the implications of Hasina\u2019s sudden flight and the potential for regional stability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The surveillance of AJAX1431 comes amid heightened tensions following Hasina\u2019s recent resignation and her departure from Dhaka.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":385,"featured_media":28260,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[521,14056,1146,16096,672,1022,4042],"class_list":["post-28252","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bangladesh","tag-bangladesh","tag-bangladesh-government","tag-bangladesh-protests","tag-c-130-aircraft","tag-dhaka","tag-new-delhi","tag-sheikh-hasina"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28252","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/385"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28252"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28252\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28260"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28252"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28252"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/asia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28252"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
