Bangladesh Hindu Priest: The incidents of atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh have become a topic of discussion at the international level. Expressing concern over this issue, India sent its Foreign Secretary to Dhaka. India clearly told the Bangladesh government that the security of Hindus should not be compromised.
At a time when the Hindus of Bangladesh are united and raising their voice for their rights, the statement of Avinash Mitra, Assistant Secretary of Ramna Harichand Temple, has created a new controversy. Recently, Bangladesh Prime Minister Mohammad Yunus held a meeting with representatives of religious groups. However, Hindu leaders did not participate in this meeting. Despite this, Avinash Mitra participated there as a Hindu representative.
