Kolkata: ISKCON Kolkata urges UN Human Rights to ‘Wake up’ after another ISKCON devotee was attacked at Dhaka’s Uttara area.
Kolkata ISKCON vice president Radharaman Das taking to X, said, “Wake up, @UNHumanRights! Wake up—at least today, on #HumanRightsDay. Your silence and blind eye toward the ongoing #Bangladesh human rights violations are deeply saddening and heartbreaking. Just listen to this open call of genocide against Bangladeshi minorities & wake up. Get a Bengali to English translator please.”
Happy #HumanRightsDay! Thought @UNHumanRights might take a break from their nap and acknowledge the plight of Hindus in Bangladesh. But alas, the snoring remains louder than the cries for justice. Priorities, I guess. #SaveBangladeshiHindus pic.twitter.com/EBYFTkMWk4

Later talking to the media, Das said that despite talks between the Foreign Secretary level, the Hindu minorities are being attacked.
“The videos and visuals are really disturbing. On World Human Rights Day the Human Rights should wake up and see the atrocities that are taking place in Bangladesh,” added the ISKCON Kolkata vice president.
Notably, after claims of occupying Bengal, Bihar and Odisha, the fundamentalists on Tuesday claimed that North Eastern states of India is also theirs. Amid such claims, a devotee posted a video in social media stating that he and his family is being attacked just because he is a Hindu and also that Bangladesh is his country and he doesn’t want to leave his motherland.
However, the purported video was not verified by the Free Press Journal (FPJ).
Meanwhile, after Petrapole international Indo-Bangladesh border in Bongaon, Ghojadanga border at Basirhat was blocked by people on Tuesday. Leader of Opposition Suvendu Adhikari also took part in the blockade.
“Hindus of this side have started showing their might. People there are saying that they will capture Kolkata, if we stop exporting 97 products then people of Bangladesh won’t be able to earn their living. At least 8- per cent of villages in Bangladesh will not have electricity if the electricity generated in Jharkhand isn’t transmitted through Farakka to the neighbouring country,” said Adhikari.
