NEW DELHI:  The plane carrying resigned Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina from eastern India to New Delhi became the most tracked aircraft in the world in real time on Monday, according to data from the Flightradar24 service.

On Monday afternoon, when the plane with Sheikh Hasina on board flew over the city of Varanasi in the central Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, it was tracked by 29,000 users simultaneously.

Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned after mass anti-government protests and flew to India.

There is no information about Sheikh Hasina's presence at the meeting. It was noted that after arriving in India, she was taken to a safe place with the assistance of Indian security forces.
