Mumbai: Following the series of violence against Hindus in Bangladesh, BJP MP Jagannath Sarkar on Tuesday urged PM Narendra Modi to implement CAA.
In his letter to Prime Minister, the BJP MP wrote, “The Hindu brothers and sisters in Bangladesh are in trouble. They have been subjected to severe persecution by jihadist forces. The biggest festival of the Sanatan Dharma has been tormented.”
“You are the protector of all the Hindu societies across the world. I request you to protect the Hindus in Bangladesh in this tough time. I request you to implement the CAA in India soon to protect the Hindus across the world. The entire Sanatan samaj is seeking help from you. If the right and strong steps are not taken now then the morale of the jihadist forces in West Bengal will rise. They might also launch attacks there,” he urged.
Notably, the CAA allows persecuted minorities from the Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Buddhist, Parsi and Christian communities of Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan to obtain Indian citizenship.
On October 13, there was communal violence in many places in Bangladesh. Several places of worship were vandalized in the areas of Chandpur, Chittagong, Ghazipur, Bandarban, Chapainwabganj and Moulvibazar.
Many people were injured in the clashes. Perpetrators of communal violence in Bangladesh vandalized six idols of the Daniyapara Maha Shoshan Kali Temple at Rasuniya Sangha in Sirajdikhan Upazila of Munshiganj on October 16.
