Has Shahbag movement created Doomsday for Hindus in Bangladesh?


Hindu persecution in the realm of Bangladesh (erstwhile East Pakistan) has never been less and with the onset of Shahbag movement demanding exemplary punishments of war criminals or accomplices of murderous Army of Pakistan in the 1971 war the same saga has become all time high.

Even if the number of slain Hindus has been low, destruction of them (in every capacity) across Bangladesh by Jamaat-e-Islami and other Islamic organizations, if taken into account, may put beasts to shame. Moreover, albeit the mainstream media worldwide has been able to portray a few horrendous developments from February 28, 2013 till date, the larger spectrum of destruction remains hidden yet.

What pains more is that the social media or social networking sites have also failed to depict the same meticulously.   

In accordance with fresh reports, 46 districts among 64 in Bangladesh have become a complete hell for minority Hindus. While 5 Hindus have lost their lives owing to persistent onslaughts, 53 have been critically injured. 128 Hindu temples have been burnt down while 255 houses of Hindus, following plunders, have been burnt down and turned into mere ashes. 21 shops of Hindus, after loots, have been destroyed and burnt down.

500 minority Hindu houses, as per latest reports that are coming in, have been worst affected. Radical Muslims, especially activists of Jamaat-e-Islami and their accomplices, are solely responsible for carrying out the abovementioned activities.

Owing to lack of Hindu defensive measures, the persecution is increasing with each day it passes.

The question remains whether Shahbag movement has turned into a doomsday for Hindus inhabiting Bangladesh.

– I have close family members living in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh at the present moment. You have the best intentions in mind and want to see truth prevails. Your assertion is some what lop sided. Yes Biharis were killed after 1971 and it was a reaction to mass killings of couple of million Bengalis. My family came and settled in Bangladesh before 1947 from India and my parents still do live in Bangladesh. I speak English, Urdu and Bengali at a native speaker level. Pakistani army committed genocide against the Bengali populace, it is a fact. Your comparison is like Jews killed few German as a reaction to the Holocaust that was committed against them during World War II, so you are willing to hold the innocent Germans killed and 6 million Jews who disappeared in the Holocaust at equal par.Yes killing of Biharis were wrong but Bengalis suffered almost 25 years of economic and social discrimination at the hands of feudal Punjabi.
Let me be clear, I am a shia minority in Bangladesh, though living in US for the past 18 years and we have never been treated badly in Bangladesh, majority actually respect us. The neutral perspective [URL='http://femo.pk'] Online Fashion Store [/URL] I bring to this blog can hardly be matched by anybody here, unless they can tell me that have very similar background like mine. Pakistan is reaping what it sowed quarter century ago, that is the seed of hatred and extremism. Please do some introspection

Another outrage in Bengal - Hindu Monk of Ramakrishna Order stripped and beaten mercilessly for Ashram land.

A panic may strike now the common Hindu people for the ongoing incidents of South Bengal for the last two months when the CPI(M), the ruling party of the state tasted a bad defeat by losing the muslim support in this region through Panchayet election. When the wining force of All India Trinamul congress (AITMC known as TMC), is considering all the prime posts for the muslim minorities in every stage of Panchayet system, the losing CPIM has already adopted the way of direct torture against hindu people out of any situation for winning the heart of muslim people and to regain the muslim support by giving various packages to the muslim minority.
On June 12, 2008 one Muslim leader of CPI(M) Sk. Ismail initiated the attack upon Hindu pilgrims in Gangasagar with the help of some 3000 fanatical muslim mob. Now they have tried to capture the Gorerhat Ramakrishna Ashram Campus by attempting murder of Swami Punnyalokanandaji, the Adhyaksha (in-charge) of the religious unit at Gorerhat under Joyn…

Thoughts of Rabindranath Tagore on Hindu-Muslim Relations

Image
Christianity and Islam determined to destroy all other Religions: There are two religions in earth, which have distinct enmity against all other religions. These two are Christianity and Islam. They are not just satisfied with observing their own religions, but are determined to destroy all other religions. That's why the only way to make peace with them is to embrace their religions." (Original works of Rabindranath Vol. 24 pages 375, Vishwa Bharti; 1982)
Muslims can not confine their `Patriotism to any one country': a very important factor which is making it almost impossible for Hindu-Muslim unity to become an accomplished fact is that the Muslims can not confine their patriotism to any one country. I had frankly asked (the Muslims) whether in the event of any Mohammedan power invading India, they (Muslims) would stand side by side with their Hindu neighbours to defend their common land. I was not satisfied with the reply I got from them… Even such a man as Mr. Mohammad…

Struggle for Netaji – Now or Never

Image
Mere celebrations, holding discourses or sharing opinions in Facebook or any other social networking websites in his praise are effete and are being considered as the last options of his impotent admirers around the globe.  For the last (almost) 65 years, each and every birth anniversary of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose is being observed such and there has been no change ever.
We, on every year, take oath of serving the country, display strongest patriotism whenever necessary on this pious day of January 23 and forget all those lofty words and thoughts once the dais is left. Who has been benefited as a result? The unholy international and national nexus preferring to keep secrets regarding his disappearance after World War II, aftermath of the weird plane crash theory on August 19, 1945(perfect cock-and-bull story) and his life and struggles later on under a rugged mat has been the greatest beneficiary thus far.
And each and every foolish act of his admirers, certainly Hindus, if not more…
