Minority Bangladeshi Hindus stage protest demanding protection amid attacks on temples, homes
Sunday, 11 August 2024 () Thousands of Muslim protestors, including students, also joined them here expressing solidarity for the cause of minorities, who have faced the brunt of the violence and devastation after Sheikh Hasina resigned as prime minister and fled to India on Monday.
Bangladesh finds itself in the throes of turmoil following the sudden resignation and escape of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina earlier this week. As the political vacuum deepens, violence has surged, with minority communities, particularly Hindus, bearing the brunt of the unrest. In the heart of Dhaka, hundreds took to the streets to protest the escalating attacks on minority groups, chanting "Who are we, Bengali Bengali" in a desperate plea for peace and unity. The demonstrators, blocking a major intersection in the city, carried posters and placards demanding immediate action to protect the vulnerable Hindu population.

Following the independence of Bangladesh, many Hindus faced severe persecution, prompting mass migration to India. Stories from refugees like Sushil Gangopadhyay and Anima Das reveal harrowing experiences of violence and displacement during the Bangladesh Liberation War. Despite seeking safety in India, the trauma of their past remains vivid, with ongoing violence against Hindus in Bangladesh reinforcing their fears. Current refugees express relief at their safety in India but demand international intervention to safeguard the rights of Hindus in Bangladesh. Their collective experiences underscore a persistent insecurity and highlight the need for protective measures for minority communities in Bangladesh.

In light of recent reports of targeted violence against Hindus in Bangladesh, a heated debate has emerged in India about the potential need to implement the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) more vigorously. This contentious issue has brought to the forefront concerns over the safety of minorities in Bangladesh and the possibility of a large influx of refugees into India. As the situation escalates, we ask the public: Is now the time to bring back the CAA to protect those fleeing persecution? With estimates suggesting that up to 10 million refugees could seek asylum in India, how prepared is the country to handle such a crisis? Join us as we gauge public opinion on these pressing issues and explore the implications for India and the region.

Since August 5, the Petrapole border between India and Bangladesh has been under tight security with reduced movement of people and goods. The increased measures are in response to ongoing unrest in Bangladesh. Despite the overall decline in trade, the border has facilitated the entry of several Bangladeshis into India for medical treatment. The unrest has led to a near-total halt in trade, impacting traders significantly. Border Security Force (BSF) Director General DS Chaudhary has visited the site, and on Tuesday, some Bangladeshis and Indians stranded in each other's countries managed to return home.
