RSS Announces Plan to Lay Siege to Bangladesh High Commission in Delhi

Protesting “Hindu Oppression,” India’s hardline Hindutva organization RSS has announced its plan to lay siege to the Bangladesh High Commission in New Delhi on December 10. The organization, regarded as the ideological mentor of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), made this announcement on Friday.

During a press conference in Delhi on Friday, an RSS official stated, “Members of civil society representing over 200 social and cultural organizations will hold a protest march next week towards the Bangladesh High Commission in Delhi against the ‘oppression’ of Hindus and other minority communities in neighboring Bangladesh.”

Rajneesh Jindal, Deputy Head of the Delhi Media and Communications Wing of RSS, said at the press conference, “On December 10, International Human Rights Day, a march will be held under the banner of ‘Delhi Civil Society’ towards the Bangladesh High Commission.”

He added, “The entire nation (the people of India) is outraged and concerned about the ongoing persecution of Hindus and other minority communities in Bangladesh. On December 10, we will hold a protest march to the Bangladesh High Commission in Delhi against the atrocities committed against Hindus and other minority groups in Bangladesh.”

The RSS leader noted that over 200 representatives from social, cultural, and religious organizations in Delhi would participate in the protest march.

He further stated, “We will submit a memorandum to the Bangladesh High Commission. We will also demand immediate intervention from international organizations, including the United Nations, UNHRC, WHO, Amnesty International, and ADB, to stop the ongoing violence and brutality against Hindus in Bangladesh.”

Jindal mentioned that a memorandum on this matter would also be submitted to all District Magistrates in Delhi on December 9. According to a statement from the organizers, the aim of the protest march is to draw national and international stakeholders’ attention to the oppression of Hindus and other minority communities in Bangladesh and seek intervention.
