As a Bangladeshi Hindu living abroad, I am deeply concerned about the ongoing communal and religious violence in Bangladesh. Even after our second independence, why do we still engage in this divisive behavior?

I understand that there is propaganda from India that targets Bangladeshi minorities, particularly Hindus. Being a Hindu myself, I find this troubling. However, instead of reacting to these provocations, why can't we focus on building our nation and improving our society?

Labeling any minority religious organization, such as ISKCON, as a terrorist group because of the actions of a few individuals is unfair. Would we do the same for crimes committed by some madrassa teachers or Hujurs? This kind of blanket labeling only fuels hatred and division. Many Hindus feel alienated and are seeking support from India. Some extremist Hindus might even retaliate, which only exacerbates the situation.

India is increasing hatred against us and making many foolish plans, like threatening to divide the country. Islam teaches us not to seek revenge or harm our enemies. Yet, some of us seem to forget these teachings, contributing to instability in Bangladesh. While some Hindus may support India due to the lack of justice for crimes committed against them, we need to ally with them, not push them further away.

Yes, there are Hindus in government positions, but many are wealthy and liberal, and their presence is often used to give the appearance of inclusivity. However, the reality is different. Hindus have faced attacks and injustices regardless of who is in power.

For the sake of our country's stability and progress, can we please stop this communal violence? Both Hindus and Muslims must work together to create a peaceful and inclusive Bangladesh. Let's focus on unity and understanding rather than division and hatred.

Living abroad, it's disheartening to see my homeland in turmoil. But I believe that by working together, we can build a better future for everyone.

বিদেশে বসবাসরত একজন বাংলাদেশি হিন্দু হিসাবে, আমি বাংলাদেশে চলমান সাম্প্রদায়িক ও ধর্মীয় সহিংসতার ব্যাপারে গভীরভাবে উদ্বিগ্ন। আমাদের দ্বিতীয় স্বাধীনতার পরেও কেন আমরা এই বিভাজনমূলক আচরণ চালিয়ে যাচ্ছি?

আমি বুঝতে পারি যে ভারতের থেকে বাংলাদেশি সংখ্যালঘু, বিশেষ করে হিন্দুদের লক্ষ্য করে প্রচারণা করা হচ্ছে। আমি নিজেও একজন হিন্দু, তাই এটি আমাকে খুবই ব্যথিত করে। তবে, এই উস্কানির প্রতিক্রিয়া না দেখিয়ে, কেন আমরা আমাদের জাতি গঠনের উপর মনোনিবেশ করতে পারি না?

কোনো সংখ্যালঘু ধর্মীয় সংস্থাকে, যেমন ইস্কনকে, কয়েকজনের অপরাধের জন্য সন্ত্রাসী দল বলে আখ্যা দেওয়া অন্যায়। আমরা কি একই কাজ মাদ্রাসার কিছু শিক্ষক বা হুজুরদের অপরাধের ক্ষেত্রেও করব? এই ধরনের সাধারণীকরণ শুধু ঘৃণা ও বিভেদ উস্কে দেয়। অনেক হিন্দু বিরক্ত হয় এবং ভারতের সমর্থন খুঁজছে। কিছু চরমপন্থী হিন্দু প্রতিশোধ নিতে পারে, যা কেবল পরিস্থিতি আরও খারাপ করে।

ভারত আমাদের বিরুদ্ধে ঘৃণা বাড়িয়ে তুলছে এবং দেশকে বিভক্ত করার মতো অনেক বোকামি পরিকল্পনা করছে। ইসলামের শিক্ষা অনুযায়ী, শত্রুকে ক্ষতি করা বা প্রতিশোধ নেওয়া উচিত নয়। তবুও, কিছু লোক এই শিক্ষা ভুলে যায় এবং বাংলাদেশের অস্থিতিশীলতায় অবদান রাখে। কিছু হিন্দু তাদের বিরুদ্ধে হওয়া অপরাধের ন্যায়বিচার না পাওয়ার কারণে ভারতের প্রতি সমর্থন জানাতে পারে, কিন্তু তাদের আরও দূরে ঠেলে না দিয়ে আমাদের তাদের মিত্র হতে হবে।

হ্যাঁ, সরকারী অবস্থানে কিছু হিন্দু রয়েছে, তবে অনেকেই ধনী ও উদারমনা এবং তাদের উপস্থিতি অন্তর্ভুক্তির চেহারা দিতে ব্যবহৃত হয়। তবে বাস্তবতা ভিন্ন। ক্ষমতায় যারাই থাকুক না কেন, হিন্দুরা আক্রমণ এবং অন্যায়ের শিকার হয়েছে।

আমাদের দেশের স্থিতিশীলতা ও অগ্রগতির জন্য, দয়া করে এই সাম্প্রদায়িক সহিংসতা বন্ধ করতে পারি না? হিন্দু ও মুসলমান উভয়কেই একসঙ্গে কাজ করতে হবে শান্তিপূর্ণ ও অন্তর্ভুক্তিমূলক বাংলাদেশ গড়তে। বিভেদ ও ঘৃণার পরিবর্তে আমরা ঐক্য ও বোঝাপড়ার উপর মনোনিবেশ করি।

বিদেশে বসবাস করা, আমার নিজের দেশকে অস্থিরতায় দেখতে কষ্টকর। কিন্তু আমি বিশ্বাস করি, একসঙ্গে কাজ করে আমরা সবার জন্য একটি ভাল ভবিষ্যৎ তৈরি করতে পারি।

I have in watching and closely following politics for the last 5 years. I am not a madrassa student , just finished my A level. But I my opinion Jamat currently has the best leaders. And no they are not extremists. I have met many of they had never forced me to do anything.

Hello everyone. There are various promotional codes available for different regions. Do we Bangladeshis have any working GRE promo code as of now? Thank you.

Whitepaper on state of Bangladesh economy has been submitted to CA. I was looking for it online but couldn't find. Do you know where can I get it?

"Bangladesh has the potential to generate up to 10,000 MW of solar power by utilising unused government land, including railways and roads, according to Muhammad Fouzul Kabir Khan, Energy and Mineral Resources Advisor. "

An installed capacity of 10,000 MW of solar energy has the potential to produce approximately 17 billion units of electricity each year. This is equivalent to the total electricity generated last year by BPDB-owned plants, which mainly relied on fossil fuels and has an installed capacity of about 6,000 MW.

There are more and more calls amongst Indians to take parts of Bangladesh to expand their chicken neck by taking areas around or including Rangpur, or increase their North Eastern territories by taking parts of Chittagong. And to be specific, generally when a country annexes another country’s territory, they also inherit the people of those territories. A great example of this phenomenon is the Muslim invasions of South Asia where the majority of the citizens remained locals with Hindu beliefs. But in the Indians’ case, they go further to say they’ll take our lands and remove our people.

Over the past few days, I personally have received death threats, warnings, and insults from the Indian community. I have always been receiving them in the past (even so far as to receive them as a moderator when I was one at the Dhaka subreddit). I am someone who is a strong advocate of secularism. I’ve been doing that for many years now. And even despite that, I also receive insults targeted at Islamists. Why? Because I’m Muslim. Now generally, all Bangladeshis are probably used to this mindset that some Indians have. But the concerning change I see now is the addition of military invasion in these threats.

Yes, these are probably echo chambers who don’t represent the vast majority of Indians. But you tell me, how many Indian people do you know that would straight up tell you that no, they don’t want Bangladeshi land in India? How many Indians do you know that would not support Akhand Bharat? How many Indians do you know that would not think we are inferior to them for whatever reason they might believe in?

These may be fringe people calling for such actions, but the majority of people harbor some level of support for them. This is a fact. If not, why else did the Indian Parliament hang a map of the Mauryan Empire and call it India as opposed to calling it by its political name? In fact, there are even people openly discussing a repetition of 1971, except this time the Indian army invades Bangladesh not for Bangladeshis but for themselves. The truth is India was never Bangladesh’s ally. They only helped us to counter their arch-enemy, Pakistan. Not because of the good of their hearts, but because of their hatred of Pakistan. Some of us already know this, but I’m just putting this up here regardless.

Our own country has people that want to invade India. But they are not supported by the majority. That is the difference. Even some of my own friends support the invasion of India, which I made a post about yesterday. But again, this was a one-off incident, and most Bangladeshis don’t even think about the concept, let alone work to make it real. Why would they? Maybe unification of Bengal at most, but that’s a matter of cultural unification, not foreign domination. We as Bangladeshis need to be alert and prepared to thwart any future attempts carried out by India to expand its territories. You may think I’m overthinking this. Maybe I am. But that still doesn’t change the fact that it is a valid possibility.

To the Indians reading this, which I’m sure many of you are, I have generally been defensive of India when Bangladeshis insult India. Why? Because I think it is tasteless behavior, uncivilized, barbaric. I think it is something humans resort to when they have nothing meaningful to say. Not anymore. I have had my fair share of your people. Insults are at least verbal, but I cannot, as a responsible citizen of Bangladesh, stand and watch as your countrymen discuss how best to take OUR land, kill OUR people, violate OUR women. Pakistan did that once, and we responded in kind. Yes, your country helped, but not to help Bangladesh but to destroy Pakistan.

Just check any Indian community, whether in real life or online. They think they are superior when Bangladesh outmatches them in almost everything on average. Many of them don’t even know what “ on average” means, thinking their massive economy is perfect for their even more massive population. They call us termites, they call educated and well-off Bangladeshis traveling to India illegal border crossers, and they even called our then Prime Minister, as Chief Minister of Bangladesh, on many occasions. The only other country that comes close to his level of aggressive attitude towards its neighbour is Russia towards Ukraine.

Now, why make this post? Idk. Maybe to spread awareness? Maybe to show my support for the people who thing India is a threat? In any case, Bangladesh needs to be ready for any future invasion by India. It is, in my opinion, a realistic future scenario, unlike the Bangladeshis who want to invade India. If you think my fear of India goes too far, all I can tell you is this: Over the last five years, I have received over 50 death threats, 1,000 insults, 200 blaming incidents (where somehow I’m the cause for some issue Indian Muslims cause in India because all Muslims are the same apparently), and many more. And all this has left me with is nothing but total disdain for that country. And I don’t think that disdain will be going anytime soon. I am sure many people in this community also share this sentiment. And the worst part, this attitude by Indians empower the Islamists in Bangladesh, making the future twice as bleak for secular-minded people.

India’s hottest topic seems to be Bangladesh 🇧🇩. Even though they don’t seem to like Bangladesh, they can’t stop talking about it. Indians are worried—why? Maybe because they think Bangladesh might become friends with Pakistan in the future.

Why are you so bothered about Bangladesh? Do you live there, or do you depend on its rice to survive?

And about minorities in Bangladesh—really? That’s not your issue, especially when minorities in your own country don’t even have the basic freedom to eat or wear what they want.
