‘Hindus of Australia’ on X, appreciated the bravery of those attending the rally despite the potential risks their families might face back home due to their absence.

The Bangladesh Hindu-Buddhist-Christian Oikya Parishad had sent an ‘open letter’ to Chief Adviser of the interim government of Bangladesh Muhammad Yunus, expressing “profound sorrow and concern” over a particular group’s “unprecedented violence” against the minorities.

The letter mentioned that the communal violence, which began immediately after former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina left Dhaka, has caused “widespread fear, anxiety, and uncertainty” among the Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh.

“According to organisational details and media reports, thousands of Hindu families have become destitute while many temples have been attacked and burned. Numerous women have faced assaults, and there have been murders in several places. Other minorities have also suffered during this period,” it said.

Similarly, the Bangladesh Hindu Jagran Mancha has also organised processions and rallies to protest against the recent vandalism, arson, looting, and attacks on the Hindu community across the country.
