Bigotry is born first’, she has said. In Bangladesh, the people who instigate the students are different. Taslima Nasreen said that fundamentalist Islamic groups are behind all this. Taslima Nasreen has said this in an interview given to a news channel.

Taslima Nasreen further said…

1. Until the 80s, only old people used to go to the mosque. Now children, young people are all going. Namaz is performed by closing the roads. Terrorism is not born in a day. First fanaticism is born, then fundamentalism is born and then terrorism is born. For that, intellectual discrimination is done in the Islamic way for a long time.

2. “I don’t need madrassas, ” I have been saying this for the last 40 years. Teach religion at home and education at school. Build better schools, laboratories than building mosques. Teach children all subjects from science. Successive Governments have fostered fanaticism and encouraged fanatics.
