Indian Leftists whitewash Hinduphobic threats in Bangladesh.

As the turmoil in Bangladesh unfolded and the Army took over the reins, violence ensued, and it was the Hindus living in Bangladesh who have been bearing the brunt. Calls for burning and killing Hindus echoed all across the country. Here are some chilling reports:

 

However, the likes of alleged fact-checker Mohammed Zubair and leftist mouthpieces like The Wire, kept insisting that Hindus were “safe” in Bangladesh. They went above and beyond, bending backwards to prove that Hindus were kept safe.

Here are some posts:

A handle that claims to be “anti-RSS” posted “FAKE NEWS ALERT Taking advantage of the unrest in Bangladesh, BJP IT Cell Coolies in India are spreading Fake News to create Hindu-Muslim unrest. Be Careful   #KolkataPolice has already issued notification regarding Fake News and Fake Images. If you see Fake Images or News spread by RW, inform the Police.”

While some news was false, it is a fact that Hindu households were being attacked, some torched. Photos and videos of attacks on Hindus have been circulated since the coup took place.

In a video interview with Arfa Khanum Sherwani, The Wire‘s Siddharth Varadarajan stated that claims of Hindus in Bangladesh being unsafe were “baseless and stupid“

Alleged fact-checker Mohammed Zubair, being the Islamist mouthpiece, bent over backwards to prove his Islamist brothers’ innocence. He already set propaganda that Muslims in Bangladesh were “stepping up” to protect the temples in the country. Well, protect from whom, one wonders.

He shared multiple posts to prove this – photos and videos. In this post, he shared a video taken inside a mosque where a Bangladeshi Muslim man is seen making an announcement. He wrote, “A Special Announcement on a loudspeaker from inside the Mosque in Bangladesh. “Dear Citizens, We ‘Students Against Discrimination’ are requesting you, during this period of unrest in the country, We all must maintain communal harmony. We should protect Hindu minorities. Protect their lives and their wealth from miscreants/evil forces. It is your responsibility, our responsibility, and everyone’s responsibility. lets all be vigilant.” “

Zubair also reshared a post from an account that was created just a few days ago that Hindus are safe in Bangladesh – all this to shield his co-religionists across the border.

Another so-called Hindu in Bangladesh claims he is safe when news reports of attacks on Hindu businesses and households keep pouring in.

A Bloomberg reporter even shared a picture of “Bangladesh’s Muslim clerics” who were “voluntarily guarding a Hindu temple in Cumilla after reports of attacks on Hindu communities and their places of worship prompted politicians and protest leaders to call for ‘resisting’ those committing violence.”

It is very clear that a narrative of the “kind Muslim” helping and safeguarding Hindu temples keeps coming out. Netizens demanded answers from those who claimed Hindus were safe and who shared such posts.

As we publish report after report on the situation, more and more videos and news come flooding in from Bangladesh on Hindus and temples being attacked. It is noteworthy that there are over a crore Hindus living in Bangladesh.

Here are a few very recent horrific incidents.
