Donald Trump had raised his voice against the atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh.
Washington: The Indian American community will appeal to the Trump administration and the US Congress next year to take strict action against Bangladesh. The community’s demands also include imposing economic sanctions on the Bangladeshi regime. The community has decided to take this step against the atrocities on Hindu minorities and vandalism of temples in Bangladesh. Dr. Bharat Barai, a prominent Indian American doctor and leader of the Indian American community, has been actively contacting US leaders regarding this issue. Let us tell you that Trump will take over the power of America in January next year.
‘Trump is a courageous and decisive leader’
Dr. Barai said, ‘Newly elected President Donald Trump had recently given a big statement on the violence against Hindu minorities and vandalism of temples in Bangladesh. Trump is a courageous and decisive leader, and if the situation does not improve, I hope he will consider imposing economic sanctions on Bangladesh. He said that if a ban is imposed on the textile industry of Bangladesh, it will cause serious damage to the economy of Bangladesh and can create a big crisis for the citizens there. Let us tell you that a large population of Bangladesh is associated with the textile industry.
‘…then violence against minorities can reduce’
Dr. Barai made serious allegations regarding the politics of Bangladesh and said that the current Bangladeshi government led by Mohammad Yunus is under the influence of the army. He believes that the government of Bangladesh is actually being run by the army there. He said, ‘People of the Hindu American community expect action from America’s lawmakers and administration regarding the oppression against minorities in Bangladesh. If the situation does not improve then we will appeal to the Congress to take strict action on this. He believes that if America puts pressure on the government of Bangladesh through action, then violence against minorities can reduce there.
Trump gave a big statement on the situation in Bangladesh
Dr. Barai also appealed to the Indian government that if atrocities on minorities continue in Bangladesh, then India should also consider taking steps like economic sanctions against Bangladesh. He said that India should also reconsider its foreign policy regarding the situation in Bangladesh, so that the rights of minorities there can be protected. Dr. Barai also cited Trump’s statement in which he strongly condemned the attacks on minorities in Bangladesh. In a statement before the US elections on November 5, Trump had said, ‘I strongly condemn the barbaric attacks against Hindus, Christians and other minorities in Bangladesh. This would never have happened during my reign.
‘The Democratic Party ignored these incidents’
Dr. Barai has alleged that the Democratic Party ignored these incidents. He said that now in Bangladesh, not only Hindus but also Muslims are discussing that external forces may have a role in removing the democratic government in the country. He said that some people believe that some prominent individuals living in the US and Europe, such as George Soros and Peter Omidyar, may be responsible for the crisis. (PTI)
