Editorial comments

  • This pathetic state of Hindus in Islamic countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan will remain the same for years to come. The Hindus there cannot change this situation. Only India can take the initiative for it. This can only happen after the establishment of the Hindu Nation !
  • While the Police in India remain inactive when religious fanatics attack Hindus, it is no surprise if the Police in Muslim-majority Bangladesh remain inactive too !

Dhaka (Bangladesh) – On the eve of Holi, ISKCON’s Radhakant Temple on 222 Lal Mohon Saha Marg was attacked and vandalised by over 200 religious fanatics, chanting ‘Allah Hu Akbar’ (Akbar is great) and ‘Nara-e-Takbir’ (Allah is the greatest). They also looted valuable materials from the Temple. Some Hindus Sumantra Chandra Shravan, Nihar Haldar, Rajiv Bhadra and others were injured in this attack. The incident took place on 17th March at 7 p.m.

Police thrash Hindus !

Eyewitnesses said that Haji Shafiullah led the mob. The situation in the area is tense at present. Therefore, Police security has been maintained in the Temple area. Devotees who came for darshan reported the incident to the Police; however, Police did not take any action, they said.

ISKCON India Vice-President Radharamn Das condemned the incident in a Tweet – ‘It’s a very unfortunate incident on the eve of Dol Yatra & Holi celebrations. Just few days ago, United Nations passed a resolution declaring 15th March as International Day to combat Islamophobia. We are surprised that the same United Nations is mute to the suffering of thousands of helpless Bangladeshi & Pakistani minorities. So many of the Hindu minorities have lost their lives, property, women been raped, but alas, all UN can do is to ponder upon Islamophobia’.
