“I am concerned about attacks on Hindus…”, Canadian Parliament raises issue of violence against Hindus in Bangladesh

An Indian-Canadian MP has made a statement in the Canadian Parliament on violence against Hindus in Bangladesh. He said he is very concerned about violence against Hindus in Bangladesh.

Canadian MP Chandra Arya said in a statement that he is concerned about the violence against religious minorities in Bangladesh, including Hindus, Buddhists and Christians. Whenever there is instability in Bangladesh, religious minorities, especially Hindus, have to burn in the fire. Since the establishment of Bangladesh in 1971, the number of religious minorities in the country’s population has declined rapidly.

He said Canadian Hindu families living in Bangladesh are worried about the safety of their families and property. He said they will hold a rally in front of Parliament next week on September 23, which will focus on the current situation of Hindus in Bangladesh. Canadian Buddhist and Christian families living in Bangladesh will also attend the rally.

Chandra Arya, who represents the Nepean constituency in Ontario in the Canadian House of Commons, belongs to Tumkut district in Karnataka.
