The world, dominated by global supremacist majoritarian and represented by the church and Islamist lobbyists, is silently watching the genocide being committed against Hindus and Sanyasis in Bangladesh. The reality is that the world does not count Hindu lives. The world remembers the genocide of six million Jews killed in the Holocaust of Germany during World War 2, but does not remember the unfortunate death of more than three million Hindus who died during the Bengal famine due to Winston Churchill’s policies. From kids to elderly people, many died due to hunger while the world kept watching silently. About 4.75 million Hindus were killed or displaced during Partition in 1947, but the world remained a mute spectator. Of course, these were the same people who conspired to divide Bharat after looting it for many decades. These same people brand Bharat as intolerant when a few miscreants allegedly commit vandalism at a church. But the same people do not find “growing intolerance” in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia, where Hindus are killed due to their origin, faith or colour, and Hindu Mandirs are attacked.
When any action is taken against a particular religious place on encroached land in Bharat, there is global outrage, and Hindus are branded as communal. But the same world remains silent when, in 2010, Rajeeta Meghwar Kolhi, a Dalit Hindu, was kidnapped, converted, and forced to marry a Muslim man in Pakistan. The news does not appear anywhere in the world when Hindus in Sindh or Karachi are not provided water pipelines and basic needs due to their faith. The world leaders, who show solidarity with Malala Yousafzai for her activism in Pakistan, do not speak a single word when a 13-year-old Dalit girl, Poonam, is kidnapped from her house in Lyari Town in Karachi in 2010 and forced to convert to Islam. The silence of the world when it comes to Hindus is very “loud.”
Hindu persecution under Muhammad Yunus
Again the world continues to watch the ongoing persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh by Jamaat-led various Islamist groups. And the Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus-led interim Government of Bangladesh, which took over after the forces resignation of Awami League leader Sheikh Hasina, remains a mute spectator. To hide his incompetency, Yunus in his recent interview to a Bharatiya newspaper The Hindu said, “issue of attacks on minority Hindus in his country is exaggerated” and questioned the manner in which India projected it”.
Targeting ISKCON and arrest of Chinmay Das
His claims are hollow. Hundreds of houses belonging to Hindus have been demolished and hundreds of Hindus have been killed Since August 5th. His administration crossed all the limits when on November 25, International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) Sanyasi Chinmoy Krishna Das, who had been leading rallies demanding security for Hindus in Bangladesh, was arrested from Dhaka airport while travelling to Chattogram in concocted defamation case regarding disrespecting flag of Bangladesh. Furthermore, what could be more pathetic than this, when on December 2, 2024, no lawyer appeared in a court in Chittagong city in Bangladesh to move bail in favour of Shri Chinmoy Krishna Das.
Hypocrisy of global community
Having said this, even if Hindus suffer the brutal Islamic onslaught in Bangladesh or deprived of crematorium ground in Indonasia, the liberals and intellectuals would not raise their voice for the community as it does not suit their agenda. The fact of the matter is that Hindus are the real minority globally, but they are denied minority rights.
