 "Security tightened at Bangladesh High Commission in Delhi: Police")
The Delhi Police has beefed up security at the Bangladesh High Commission in Chanakyapuri here in the wake of developments in the neighbouring country, an officer said on Monday.
Hasina has resigned and an interim government is taking over, Bangladesh Army Chief General Waqar-uz-Zaman announced on Monday.
There were unconfirmed reports that she was headed to a city in India.
"More barricades have been placed outside the commission and the number of police personnel deployed there has been increased," a Delhi Police officer said.
More than 100 people have been killed in the protests against the Hasina government in the last two days.
The country has been witnessing fierce demonstrations over the controversial quota system that reserves 30 per cent of jobs for the families of veterans who fought the 1971 liberation war.
