Several Indian media outlets have circulated videos claiming that Hindus are being targeted by ‘Islamist forces’ in Bangladesh.
Analysts say that while there have been attacks on minorities during the political unrest, the media is exaggerating the scale.
Across the country, student communities are vigilantly guarding the places of worship of minority communities. We will not let the freedom, stained with the blood of hundreds of martyrs, be lost to divisive tactics. Following the coordinators' declarations, form 'Communal Harmony and State Property Protection Committees' in every area to safeguard religious sites and state establishments.
