On way to London, Sheikh Hasina's plane lands at Hindon airbase: Report

Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who resigned on Monday following unprecedented anti-government protests, landed at the Hindon airbase near Ghaziabad on her way to London, diplomatic sources said.

Hasina arrived in India in a C-130J military transport aircraft of the Bangladesh Air Force, they said.

It is not immediately clear whether the military transport aircraft will take her beyond India or she will travel to London in a different plane.

Hasina is likely to meet her daughter Saima Wazed, who is based in Delhi. Wazed is working as the World Health Organisation's regional director for South-East Asia.

There is no official word or confirmation on Hasina's stopover in Hindon yet.

India decided to provide a safe passage through the Indian airspace to Hasina's aircraft following a request from Dhaka, the sources cited above told PTI.

Indian government sources said New Delhi is closely following the fast-paced developments in Dhaka.
