The United Nations (UN) has condemned the attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh. Amid violence against the minority Hindu community in Bangladesh, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’ spokesperson said that he is against any racial attacks or incitement to violence.
Hindu minorities are being attacked in Bangladesh and thousands of people are trying to infiltrate into India from Bangladesh. Sheikh Hasina’s government fell due to anti-government protests in Bangladesh.
Several online videos showed temples being set on fire and Hindu homes and businesses being attacked. An ISKCON temple and a Kali temple in Meherpur, located in Bangladesh’s Khulna Division, were vandalised and set on fire. Meanwhile, two Hindu councillors were killed during the protests.
