'..violence against religious minorities, including Hindus..', Canadian Leader of Opposition expresses concern

Hindus

Canadian Leader of the opposition Pierre Poilievre expresses concern on violence against religious minorities in Bangladesh. “We call for justice for the murdered and the persecuted, and an end to the violence against Bangladesh's religious minorities.”

"Conservatives stand with the people of Bangladesh during this difficult time. We are very concerned about the hundreds killed and thousands injured during student-led protests and horrified by the subsequent violence against religious minorities, including Hindus and Christians, who are being senselessly targeted by violent mobs", he said.

"We condemn the violations of human rights by the authorities in Bangladesh and condemn all instances of violence against innocent and peaceful people. We call for the restoration of democracy and the rule of law, ensuring all Bengalis are protected and enjoy equal citizenship. We call for justice for the murdered and the persecuted, and an end to the violence against Bangladesh's religious minorities. During this time of transition in government, we call for calm and stability and stand with all Canadian Bengalis whose families and loved ones face danger and uncertainty. Conservatives will continue to advocate for democracy, freedom, human rights and the rule of law.", read the press release.

It need be mentioned that this week, hundreds of Bangladeshi Hindus have unsuccessfully attempted to seek refuge in India after a wave of attacks targeted their homes and businesses following the ousting of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. According to the Bangladesh Hindu Buddhist Christian Unity Council, 45 out of 64 districts have experienced incidents where predominantly Hindu properties, businesses, or temples were vandalized. The violence has led to the death of a school teacher and left 45 others injured.

Hindus, who make up about 8% of Bangladesh's population of 170 million, have historically supported Hasina's Awami League, a party known for its secular stance. However, following Hasina's escape to India on August 5 amid widespread protests against her alleged authoritarian governance, there has been a rise in anti-Indian sentiment among some Bangladeshis.
