JAMMU, Dec 11: Jammu and Kashmir BJP chief spokesperson, Sunil Sethi, today, criticized NC, PDP and Congress over their approach of selective condemnations and keeping silence on what is happening in Bangladesh.
He was addressing media persons at party Headquarters, along with party spokespersons G.L. Raina, Dr. Tahir Choudhary, Y.V. Sharma and Balbir Ram Rattan.
Sunil Sethi said that Hindus in Bangladesh are facing atrocities. They are being killed, and women are being raped. A wave of uncertainty and total insecurity is prevailing there. It is most unfortunate that parties like NC, PDP and even Congress, which project them as champions of human rights, have adopted silence and not showing any sympathy towards the affected Hindus in Bangladesh. “If Hindus are subjected to atrocities and physically assaulted in Bangladesh or elsewhere, none from NC, PDP and Congress condemns the inhumane treatment to the minority community”, said Sunil Sethi, adding that selective condemnations by these parties have exposed their anti-Hindu mindset.
Sunil Sethi, while appreciating the united protests and condemnations of Bangladesh incidents by the people of Jammu, belonging to all sections and religions, raised questions for no reaction from Kashmir over the inhumane treatment of Hindus in Bangladesh. He said this speaks of the communal approach of the Valley-based parties and people there.
Whereas these parties are making hue and cry over the illegal settlement of Rohingyas and also showing concerns over the distant Israel-Palestine war, they are least concerned for the Hindus of Bangladesh.
Sunil Sethi, while quoting that during partition of the country in 1947, there were over 20 percent Hindus in Pakistan and today they have been reduced to just two percent. Similarly, the number of Hindus in Bangladesh has also come down. This all speaks of the conspiracy to eliminate Hindus.
In India, people of all religions are treated equally, they enjoy freedom of expression, follow their religious practices and all are equal in all matters and at all levels. Sethi further said that people in Jammu and Kashmir and other parts of the country are minutely watching the anti-Hindu approach of few political parties and would condemn them in the strongest words.
