Attacks on minority Hindu community in Islamic Bangladesh during coronavirus lockdown
- Hindus have experienced that irrespective whether it is India or Bangladesh, religious fanatics attack Hindus and rulers remain inactive nor do they protect Hindus.
- The Indian media houses always suppress the news of attacks on Hindu community taking place in Islamic countries. The same is also experienced in this case.
- The International Commissions preparing reports about so-called atrocities perpetrated on the minorities in India turns a blind eye towards such atrocities on minority Hindus in Bangladesh.
Dhaka (Bangladesh) – A mob comprising 70 to 80 armed religious fanatics carried out a brutal attack on 30 Hindu families on 21st April at Shukladash Para in Chittagong District. In the attack 25 women, men, elderly persons and children were seriously injured; they were admitted in the hospital at Chittgang Medical College.
