New Delhi: Shahi Imam of Delhi's Jama Masjid Syed Ahmed Bukhari has asked the Bangladesh government to stop injustice and attacks against Hindus. He wrote in a letter, “As a trusted neighbour, close ally of Bangladesh and custodian of shared cultural heritage, I expect the current head of Bangladesh, Nobel laureate Mohammad Yunus, to desist from any kind of violence against Hindu minorities.” He must take immediate steps to stop the injustice and ensure that his international reputation remains unblemished.”
'Bangladesh has been a close ally'
Ahmed Bukhari said in the letter that Bangladesh has had close relations with India since its formation. He said, “Since the founding of Bangladesh, our national leadership, media, civil society and influential people have maintained close relations with Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, his daughter Sheikh Hasina Wajid and his party Awami League. “Bangladesh has always stood with us as a close ally in international issues and matters related to the Muslim world.”
Shahi Imam mentioned the United Nations
Shahi Imam also said that after Sheikh Hasina left for India, both Muslim and non-Muslim supporters of the Awami League were targeted due to the protests against her. He said that the injustice, attacks and unilateral action against Hindu minorities is condemnable and should be stopped immediately. There is no justification for such actions. We were the first people to stand with them in every natural disaster. Bukhari also said in the letter that there is a Universal Declaration of the United Nations regarding the protection of equal rights of minorities, which is binding on all members of the international community and all member states of the United Nations.
