***IMPORTANT NOTE***: In the current Bangladesh under the leadership of Dr. Muhammad Yunus, Hindu religious minorities are denied their very basic human right that is “Right to Life that includes Right to Livelihood”. Hindus are being falsely accused and violently attacked by not only majority Muslims but also by Bangladesh Military and Police forces. Even Hindu children are not spared. Military and Police forces as well as the judiciary are working together against Hindus who are victims of Government Terrorism here. Despite hundreds of thousands of violent attacks on the Hindu minorities, a single attacker yet to be arrested by the Government. Victims are being punished ruthlessly by the Government machine.
