It is necessary to condemn atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh at the international level : Tathagat Roy (Former Governor of Tripura and Meghalaya)

“The region now known as Bangladesh had 29% of Hindu population in 1941, but it came down to 22% in 1951. In 1971, till the creation of Bangladesh, the Hindu population declined to 18%, and now, only 8% Hindus are left in Bangladesh. Where did all other Hindus go ? In 1971, after the creation of Bangladesh, Hindus felt that their oppression would stop, but this didn’t happen. There is nothing new in the recent attacks on Hindus during Navaratri in Bangladesh. Hindus have been constantly attacked on some pretext or the other. For the security of Hindus in Bangladesh, it is necessary to condemn all this at the international level. The Indian Government should also put diplomatic pressure on Bangladesh to prevent attacks on Hindus”, appealed Shri. Tathagat Roy during a Special Online discussion organised by Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) on – ‘Jihadi attacks on Bangladeshi Hindus’.

Mr Ramesh Shinde (National Spokesperson of HJS) said that Hindus should lodge complaints with the High Commission of Bangladesh in India against the genocide of Hindus, agitate to condemn the attack and create political pressure. The UN representatives who visit Kashmir for Muslims, are indifferent towards atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh. The Indian Government should send its delegation for an impartial inquiry into these atrocities and their report should be published for all to know. Bangladeshi Muslims who have illegally occupied 6652 sq. kms. – a large part of the land – in Assam, should be driven out. Advocate H.H. Rabindra Ghosh of ‘Bangladesh Minority Watch’, Ms Arati Agrawal (Director of ‘Ishitva Foundation’), and other eminent personalities explained the pathetic condition of Hindus in Bangladesh.
