After her administration in the South Asian nation collapsed on Monday, the Indian government granted former Bangladeshi prime minister Sheikh Hasina an indefinite stay, according to media sources.

As Hasina seeks asylum in the UK, India will provide full logistical support during this time, according to Daily Sun.

Her move to Britain is still pending, thus her stay in India is only authorized temporarily.

Traveling through India to London, Hasina tendered her resignation on Monday amid historic demonstrations against the government.

As of now, there has been no confirmation from the UK government regarding the grant of political asylum for the former Bangladesh Prime Minister, Daily Sun reported.

Hasina is currently seeking asylum in the UK, with her sister Rehana, a UK citizen, accompanying her.

Rehana, the younger daughter of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the "Father of Bangladesh," and Sheikh Fazilatun Necha Mujib, is also the younger sister of Sheikh Hasina. Her daughter, Tulip Siddiq, serves as a member of the British Parliament representing the Labour Party.

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

In Dhaka, Bangladesh Army Chief General Waqar-uz-Zaman said Hasina has resigned and an interim government is taking over the responsibilities.

"I'm taking all responsibility (of the country). Please cooperate," he said in a televised address.

The Army Chief said he had met political leaders and told them the Army would take over responsibility for law and order.

More than 100 people have been killed in the protests against the Hasina government over the last two days.
