Radical Bangladesh: Yunus Government’s Inaction Fuels Jamaat Attacks on Temples, Shrines, and Secular Gatherings

Must Read

Yunus Bangladesh is killing minorities showing their true color of religion. It is no longer possible to hide the truth behind diplomatic handshakes or Nobel Peace Prizes. The “reform” government of Muhammad Yunus has peeled back its mask, revealing a terrifying reality: Bangladesh is being handed over to religious extremists, and the blood of minorities is the price being paid.

PC: The Hindu

Since taking office in August 2024, Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus has presided over a collapse of law and order that looks less like negligence and more like complicity. By unbanning the radical Jamaat-e-Islami, he has empowered the very forces that are now hunting Hindus, Christians, and secular artists. The message from the streets is clear: in this “New Bangladesh,” only one ideology is welcome.

The Cultural Jihad: Attacking the Soul of Bengal

The extremism has moved beyond political riots; it is now a war on culture itself. On December 26, 2025, the true face of this intolerance was on full display in Faridpur.

Legendary rock icon James, a man whose voice has united Bengalis for decades, was invited to perform at the Faridpur Zila School’s 185th anniversary. It was meant to be a celebration for students and alumni. Instead, it became a siege. A mob of “outsiders”—described by witnesses as jihadists who view music as haram (sinful)—stormed the venue.

They didn’t just protest; they attacked. Bricks and stones rained down on the 8,000 students in attendance. Over 25 people were injured, and James, a national treasure, was forced to flee through a back exit to save his life. This follows the burning of cultural hubs like Chhayanaut and Udichi. The radicals are sending a message: Music is a sin, and culture is the enemy.

The Human Cost: Burning Men and Hunting Devotees

While the attack on culture is symbolic, the attack on human life is barbaric. The Hindu minority, which makes up about 8-10% of the population, is facing a level of violence that borders on genocide.

  • The Burning of Dipu Chandra Das: On December 18 in Mymensingh, the mob showed its true savagery. Dipu Chandra Das was accused of “blasphemy” on Facebook—a baseless rumor used to incite hatred. He wasn’t arrested. He was dragged out by a mob, beaten, tied to a tree, and burned alive. The police did not save him. The government has offered only hollow words.

  • The Siege of Anik: On December 26 in Chandpur, an ISKCON devotee named Anik faced a death squad. A mob of 200 extremists surrounded his home, chanting for his “public slaughter.” For hours, he was trapped, terrorized by his own countrymen. He survived only because the Army intervened, but the trauma remains.

These are not isolated incidents. Independent reports verify over 2,900 incidents of violence against minorities since August 2024. Over 100 Hindus have been killed, and more than 152 temples have been smashed or torched. This is a systematic purge.

The Enabler in Chief

Muhammad Yunus cannot claim this is “accidental.” When you unban an extremist group like Jamaat-e-Islami, you are responsible for what they do. Critics and geopolitical analysts argue that Yunus has turned Bangladesh into a “hub of radicalization.” There is no Ministry for Minorities. There are no special tribunals for these lynchings. The police often stand by as temples burn, afraid to act against the mobs that Yunus has legitimized. The interim government is not failing to stop the violence; it is choosing not to.

The Hypocrisy of the UN and WHO

But as Bangladesh bleeds, the silence from the “international community” is deafening.

The United Nations (UN) and the World Health Organization (WHO) are recognized global bodies that supposedly stand for human rights and health. Yet, as thousands of Bangladeshi minorities face physical violence, displacement, and death, these organizations are mute.

  • Where is the UN Human Rights Council? If this were happening in the West, there would be emergency sessions. Here, there is silence.

  • Where is the WHO? The trauma and injuries to the minority population constitute a health crisis, yet not a word is spoken.

This double standard exposes a rot in the system. It suggests that their outrage is selective—paid for by lobbies or driven by political bias. If a recognized body cannot condemn the burning of a man because of his religion, it loses its right to be called a moral authority.

Conclusion

The world needs to wake up. Muhammad Yunus is not leading a democracy; he is presiding over a religious cleansing. The minorities of Bangladesh are being killed to show the “true color” of this new regime. If the international community continues to support Yunus while he lets his country burn, they are not just bystanders—they are accomplices.
