Twitter accounts of Bangladesh Hindu Unity Council, Iskcon Bangladesh gets deleted

The Bangladesh Hindu Unity Council Twitter handle which has been bringing to light the persecution of Hindu minorities in Bangladesh has reportedly been deleted by Twitter. It was a verified account with a blue tick.

Another handle Iskcon Bangladesh has also been reportedly deleted from Twitter.

The two Twitter handles have been reporting on the atrocities inflicted upon the Hindu minority community by Muslim mobs in the Islamic in the country.

The official handle of ISKCON has called on Twitter to clarify the reason for the deletion of the two accounts from the platform.

Other handles like Bangladesh Jatio Hindu Mahojate which have been reporting on the violence against Bangladeshi Hindus have also been deleted.

It is to be noted that ISKCON had recently issued a statement against the brutal attacks on the Hindu community in Bangladesh.

The Bangladesh Hindu Unity Council had even written letters to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President seeking protection for the Hindu community in Bangladesh.

Muslim mobs in Bangladesh have gone on a rampage by attacking Durga Pujo pandals and temples in the country. More than 17 people have been killed so far by these fanatic mobs.

In light of this, netizens have lashed out at Twitter for trying to stifle distressed voices from the Islamic country.

The Bangladesh Hindu Unity Council Twitter handle has been deleted (not suspended) for creating awareness about the genocide. The stifling of Hindu voices continues unbated.
