Bangladesh Hindus Face Atrocities Amid China Pakistan Allegations
The situation has sparked concerns about the safety of the Hindu community in Bangladesh, with many calling for greater protection and support from the international community. The allegations of Chinese and Pakistani involvement have added a new dimension to the situation, highlighting the need for a concerted effort to address the human rights concerns in the country.
Human rights activist Rabinder Ghosh has accused China and Pakistan of being behind atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh, including forceful conversions, torture, and rape, sparking concerns about the safety of the Hindu community in the country.
Ghosh claimed that China is providing assistance to Pakistan in carrying out the violence, which has led to a decline in the Hindu population in Bangladesh. He stated that 2,336 incidents of violence against Hindus have been reported since Pakistan's leader Muhammad Yunus took charge as Chief Adviser of Bangladesh. The international community, including the United Nations, has remained silent despite repeated pleas for help, according to Ghosh.
A recent incident in Agailjhara upazila, Barisal district, Bangladesh, has created panic among the local Hindu community. A mob of extremists vandalized a Hindu temple, destroying idols of Goddess Saraswati and Lord Kartikeya. The attack has led to demands for strict action against the perpetrators, with activist Malay Ghatak calling for exemplary punishment and swift police action.
The allegations of atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh and the involvement of China and Pakistan have raised concerns about the human rights situation in the country. The international community is being urged to take notice of the situation and provide support to the Hindu community in Bangladesh.
