Amid attacks on minorities in Bangladesh, the country’s interim government head Muhammad Yunus on Thursday sought the cooperation of the religious leaders in collecting accurate information about attacks on minorities and bringing the perpetrators to justice amid reports of attacks on Hindus in the country.
Speaking at a meeting of religious leaders of Bangladesh here, Chief Adviser Yunus said that the issue of attacks on minorities has come up again and there is a gap of information between the reality and the news published by foreign media.
“We want to know the accurate information and want to establish the process of getting the information,” he was quoted as saying by the state-run BSS news agency.
Yunus did not specify the “foreign” media, but several of his colleagues in the interim cabinet and aides have accused a section of Indian media of propagating misleading information, particularly on persecution of the Hindu community.
Addressing the meeting attended by leaders of the Muslim, Hindu, Christian and Buddhist communities, Yunus said he called the meeting as “several questions aroused in my mind seeing what the (foreign) media reports and hearing what people are saying” and sought the religious leaders cooperation and suggestions in collecting “accurate information” and addressing the issue.
