If you want to see the most brutal glimpse of hatred, then come to Bangladesh. The fear on the faces of women, the silence of children and the helplessness of the elderly will tell you how bad the situation is here. For a better tomorrow, the crowd of Bangladesh had overthrown Sheikh Hasina’s government, but what is happening in this country today has raised questions about the danger of the future. There is an atmosphere of anarchy everywhere in the country. Humanity, law and shame are being flouted on the streets.
People living in the shadow of fear
The situation in Bangladesh is so bad that people are living in fear. People’s houses are being looted. People are staying awake in their homes all night. They are afraid that the robbers might target their house. This situation is not only in the capital of Bangladesh, Dhaka, but similar incidents are coming to light from every corner of Bangladesh.
women are getting raped
The situation is so bad that the robbers are coming in trucks and targeting entire areas. Along with looting houses, incidents of rape of women are also coming to the fore. Houses are being set on fire. The miscreants are so fearless that they are not sparing anyone, not even the officials and leaders.
Police missing, Army helpline number closed
There is no police in the country due to the ongoing strike of law enforcement agencies. The army has provided phone numbers to report any such cases of attacks by terrorists, miscreants and robbers. But the situation is such that when people are calling on these numbers, either no one is picking up the phone or the number is switched off.
Attacks on Hindus
Hindus are the target of rioters. Temples are being burnt. People of Hindu community are being targeted and killed. Bangladesh’s leading newspaper ‘The Daily Star’ had said in its report that in at least 27 districts of the country, mobs attacked Hindu homes and business establishments, vandalised and set them on fire and looted goods. Jamaat-e-Islami itself has admitted that attacks on Hindus have increased.

A Hindu woman from Bangladesh had narrated her ordeal
Recently a Hindu woman from Bangladesh narrated her ordeal. She said, I or any other member of the family has not stepped out for the past one week. The kitchen has run out of food. We boil rice with salt and eat it late in the afternoon so that we don’t feel hungry at night. Then we keep watch at night. Earlier men used to stay awake. Now we have also taken up the duty. The impact of the political upheaval in Bangladesh has not been limited to the parliament, this fire is also burning ordinary homes. The Hindu minority is a soft target. Homes and shops are being burnt. Temples are being demolished. Mobs are attacking those settlements where there is a Hindu population. According to reports, there are 27 such districts where minorities are facing all this. But the condition of women is the worst.
people fleeing the country
People are continuously migrating since Sheikh Hasina left the country. Strictness has also been increased on the India-Bangladesh border. But thousands of people are standing to enter India. Meanwhile, more than 1 thousand Bangladeshi Hindus have reached Jalpaiguri. They want to cross the border and come to India. BSF has stopped their attempt to infiltrate into India. BSF has stopped them at the Satkura border.
