Mayawati took a dig at SP-Congress’ silence on violence against Dalits in Bangladesh

Lucknow. BSP supremo and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati said that a large number of Hindus are being victimized in the neighboring country Bangladesh. Most of these people are Dalits and weaker sections. That is why the Congress party is silent on this matter and that is why it is shouting ‘Sambhal-Sambhal’. Mayawati said that in this matter, be it SP or Congress, all are birds of the same feather. In such a situation, the central government should fulfill its responsibility, so that atrocities on the people of Dalit society can be reduced. Let us tell you that ever since Sheikh Hasina’s government was forcibly removed in Bangladesh, the condition of the minority i.e. Hindu community has remained bad there. They are being attacked here every day. These attacks are increasing every day since the arrest of ISKCON saint Chinmay Krishna Das. Protests are being seen in India against the atrocities on minorities, but Congress, Samajwadi Party, Chandrashekhar Ravan’s Azad Samaj Party and all such parties which do politics of Muslim appeasement are maintaining silence. Mayawati posted on Twitter saying that the opposition in the Parliament is raising issues of their political interests instead of raising issues of the country and public interest. Especially the SP and Congress party are trying to please the Muslim voters on the pretext of the violence in Sambhal, but till now they have not said anything about the atrocities being committed on Hindus in Bangladesh. They are only engaged in pleasing their Muslim voters. They have nothing to do with other issues. She further said that not only this, these parties are making the Muslim communities fight among themselves in Sambhal. The Muslim community also has to be cautious. Mayawati took a dig at Chandrashekhar Aaj and said that it is even more saddening that those due to whom Dalit MPs have reached the Parliament are also silent on the issues of Dalit oppression to please the bosses of their parties. It is worth noting that Bangladesh has the highest number of Muslims and Dalits. Dalits are the biggest victims of violence there. In such a situation, the government should fulfill its responsibility with full vigor. People who are victims of exploitation should be brought back to India by talking to the government there.
