The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) expresses serious concern over the incidents of violence against Hindus, Buddhists and other minority communities in Bangladesh during the movement for regime change in the last few days.
Cruelty like targeted killings, looting, arson and heinous crimes against women belonging to Hindu and other religious minorities and attacks on Hindu Mandirs in Bangladesh are intolerable. RSS strongly condemns this.
We expect the interim Government of Bangladesh to take strict action to immediately stop such incidents. Also, the Government must make proper arrangements to protect the lives, property, and honour of the victims.
We request the world community and all political parties in Bharat to stand in solidarity with the persecuted communities like Hindu, Buddhist, etc., in this critical time.
As a friendly neighbour, the Government of Bharat is trying to play an able role in this situation in Bangladesh. Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh urges the Government to make every effort to ensure the safety of Hindus, Buddhists, etc. in Bangladesh.
