The government should protect the minorities! Doing nothing is not an option.

Awami League is using the Hindus as bait. In many areas Awami thugs are torching and looting Hindu properties, and propagating that Jamaat-Shibir has done this.

Minority
We do not want to see more violence. In Satkhira, Awami League also attacked Hindu families. We will not accept such type of attack by the ruling party.

Talat
Is there a government?

Some of the houses belonging to minorities were ransacked and torched by majority AL. Trust me, I saw some pictures in the local newspapers.

India with its allies in government is indirectly responsible for this. India's similar interference caused anarchy and destruction in Sri Lanka where Hindu Tamils fought Buddhist Sinhalese. With turmoil and chaos, it's only India that will benefit by making Bangladesh dependent on India.
The people of all faiths and beliefs will have to pay a heavy price unless Bangladesh is freed from Indian hegemony.

You guys are creating panic among Hindus by this type of news, and you are well aware of this.

Abul Mashud
You are only pointing to the Jamaat for this heinous vandalism. But do justice to yourself as a reporter: find out who is the beneficiary of such attacks.

“An undignified acquiescence” (December 12, 2013)

Arif Abu
Quite interesting.     The struggle in Thailand is completely different than what we are seeing in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

You mean if this government was in opposition it would not behave in the same way?

Arif Abu
If they did I would not support them. When this party was in opposition they did not behave in the same way.

These leaders did not fall from the heaven; they grew up by public support and sustenance. The unceasing mayhem with increasing ferocity is going on for the last few months for which according to the author both the parties are equally responsible but none of them are taking the responsibility. But I am sure if by a miracle a free and fair election is held right now under a neutral caretaker government, either of these callous parties will be voted to power again. People will never unite and refuse to cast their votes for either of these parties. So who is really responsible?

Salim Ullah
If people are given a “No vote” option, majority people certainly would cast their vote to 'No', because people have no confidence at all on either of the parties.
