As a Krishna devotee, I cannot tolerate the atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh: Hema tells LS


IANS





BJP MP from Mathura Hema Malini on Wednesday strongly condemned the ongoing atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh, highlighting the emotional and religious significance of the issue for India.


During Zero Hour in the Lok Sabha, Malini, a devotee of Lord Krishna, expressed her deep sorrow over the persecution of Hindus, especially ISKCON devotees, in the neighboring country.


“I am also a Krishna devotee and a follower of ISKCON. I will not tolerate any attack on religion. Krishna is in our hearts, and I am a Member of Parliament from Mathura,” Malini pointed out.


She further stated, “I feel extremely sad about what is happening in Bangladesh to the Hindus and ISKCON devotees. There are continuous attacks on Hindus, and their safety and security are in danger at the hands of radicals.”


The Mathura MP also highlighted the global reach of ISKCON, noting that the organization, with nearly 1,000 centers worldwide, is known for spreading Vedic culture and contributing positively to people’s well-being.

Malini further pointed to the case of Chinmoy Krishna Das, a prominent Hindu monk and ISKCON devotee, who was arrested on charges of treason after peacefully protesting the persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh.


Chinmoy Krishna Das protested peacefully against atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh, but was jailed on charges of sedition. Two people who testified in his favor were also imprisoned. We cannot accept these atrocities against Hindus,” Malini said, stressing that the matter was related to the emotions of millions and not just a diplomatic issue.


In addition to Das’ arrest, Malini condemned the attack on a Bangladeshi lawyer who had defended him. The lawyer, who suffered serious injuries in the attack, was reportedly left in a critical condition in an intensive care unit, leading to the postponement of Das’ bail hearing due to lack of legal representation.


Calling on the Bangladesh government to ensure the safety and security of Hindus in the country, Malini said, “We demand security for Hindus from the government of Bangladesh.”


The situation reflects the ongoing challenges faced by Hindus and other minorities such as Christians and Buddhists Bangladesh.


The Hindu community has shrunk from about 22 percent of the population during the 1971 Liberation War to about 8 percent today, with increasing reports of violence and discrimination.


Significantly, in more than 2,000 documented acts of violence against Hindus, Christians and Buddhists in Bangladesh to date, at least nine minority members have been killed.
