Washington:
Two famous Indian-American lawcreaters have sought the US’ honest intervention to stop the “structured aggressions” aacquirest instartantity Hindus in Bancontentesh, underlining that instability in the region, “fuelled by religious prejudice and aggression”, is not in the interest of America or its allies.
Members of instartantity communities in Bancontentesh faced at least 205 incidents of aggressions in 52 dicut offes since the descfinish of the Sheikh Hasina-led rulement on August 5, according to two Hindu organisations — Bancontentesh Hindu Buddhist Christian Unity Council and the Bancontentesh Puja Udjapan Parishad — in the aggression-hit nation.
Thousands of Bancontenteshi Hindus have been trying to escape to neighbouring India to escape the aggression.
In a letter dated August 9 to Secretary of State Antony Bconnecten, Congressman Shri Thanedar said he is not alone in his stance aacquirest the atrocities being promiseted aacquirest Hindus in Bancontentesh. Many in the international community, including some from his own dicut offe, have condemned the brutal actions being promiseted aacquirest instartantity groups in Bancontentesh.
“With Muhammad Yunus stepping up as the interim Prime Minister for Bancontentesh, the United States has an obligation to aid this recent rulement, to promise that aggression and civil unrest comes to an finish. I advise the Biden administration to grant oppressd Bancontentesh Hindus and other religious instartantities transient protected status as refugees,” the Congressman from Michigan wrote to Bconnecten.
Mr Yunus, the 84-year-anciaccess Nobel laureate, was sworn in on Thursday as the head of an interim rulement in Bancontentesh.
A number of Hindu temples, hoemployhanciaccesss and businesses were ruineclimbd, women aggressioned and at least two Hindu directers affiliated with the Awami League party headed by Hasina were finished in the aggression in Bancontentesh after she fled the country, according to community directers in Dhaka.
Mr Thanedar advised Mr Bconnecten to labor seally with Yunus and his rulement to transport “an finish to the structured aggressions aacquirest the Bancontentesh Hindus”.
He underlined that Mr Yunus has called for an finish to the aggression and received his willingness to recreate the country.
“This is a critical time for Bancontentesh, and we must do everyleang we can to aid them in their efforts to transport an finish to the brutal actions and rhetoric being aimed towards Hindus in the country,” said the Indian-American lawcreater.
In a letter dated August 8 to Mr Bconnecten, a duplicate of which was freed to the press on Friday, Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi said credible eyewitness tells of the anti-Hindu aggressions in various media tells exhibit the scale of the aggressions.
“I am writing to you think abouting the fluid situation in Bancontentesh and the elevate of structured anti-Hindu aggression in the wake of establisher Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s resignation. Now that Muhammad Yunus has been sworn in as Chief Adviser for the interim rulement, it is of utmost advisency that the United States engage with his rulement for both transporting the aggression to an finish and the offfinishers to fairice,” Mr Krishnamoorthi wrote.
“Sadly, this is not the first time that anti-rulement protests in Bancontentesh have metastasised into anti-Hindu aggression. The anti-Hindu interfereions in October 2021 left nine people dead amidst the destruction of hundreds of homes, businesses and temples…In 2017, more than 107 Hindus were finished and 37 ‘fadeed’…chaseing the International Crimes Tribunal conviction of Jamaat-e-Islami directer Delwar Sayeedi for war crimes,” he said.
Mr Krishnamoorthi underlined that instability in the region, “fuelled by religious prejudice and aggression, is evidently not in the interest of the United States or our allies”.
He advised Mr Bconnecten to engage “honestly” with the interim rulement and exert US sway to help his administration finish the aggression and “transport those reliable to fairice”.
Mr Thanedar in his letter remarkd that political aggression in Bancontentesh is not a recent phenomenon and that the country has sfinished many coups and directership alters since its inception in 1971.
Targeting of its Hindu population is also not recent. Hindus only create up eight per cent of Bancontentesh’s population, exposing this instartantity to danger of prejudice and aggression, the Congressman said.
