In response to the escalating violence against religious minorities, particularly Hindus, in Bangladesh, a significant protest movement has been launched in the Netherlands. Organized by a segment of the local community, the campaign’s inaugural session attracted a diverse group of global religious and spiritual leaders who united to pledge their support for peace and the protection of Hindus under attack.
The demonstrations are explicitly directed against the policies of the Yunus government, with participants expressing deep concern over the increasing frequency and severity of attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh. This wave of protests has not only stirred India but has now spread internationally, with the Netherlands emerging as a focal point for these expressions of solidarity and demand for justice.
During a live broadcast, human rights activist Suzan and human rights lawyer Sanand joined to discuss the ongoing crisis. They highlighted the urgent need for international intervention and discussed the plight of the ISKCON monk, Chinmoy Das, emphasizing the necessity of a global response to protect religious minorities.
The organizers of the event underscored the importance of sustained protests to keep the international community engaged. They also announced their intent to escalate the matter to the International Court of Justice, seeking global judicial intervention to halt the atrocities against Hindus in Bangladesh.
The campaign in the Netherlands is part of a broader movement aimed at drawing attention to human rights violations and advocating for the safety and rights of religious minorities in Bangladesh.
