Protesting ‘persecution’ of Hindus in Bangladesh, activists submit memo to President

Dharam Suraksha Manch organised a protest today, demanding the protection of Hindus living in Bangladesh. The activists also submitted a memorandum to the President of India, urging action to safeguard the minority Hindu community in Bangladesh.

The protest was triggered by unrest in Bangladesh in August 2024, which saw a sudden shift in the political landscape.

Protesters condemned the alleged violence against Hindus, highlighting incidents where members of the community were beaten and temples were destroyed by local mobs.

The activists expressed their concern that the Indian government had not taken adequate action despite the serious threats to the lives and safety of Hindus in Bangladesh.

The activists called on the President of India to pressure the Bangladeshi government to protect its Hindu citizens, who were allegedly facing increasing harassment as a minority. They urged the Indian government to address the issue and take necessary steps to ensure the safety of Hindus in Bangladesh.
