We have a duty to protect Hindus of Bangladesh: Yogi Adityanath

The Hindu  

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday said that it was the duty of Indians to protect the Hindus of Bangladesh and support them in times of distress, irrespective of the circumstances, adding that 90% of the Hindus being “tortured in Bangladesh are Dalits”. “It is our duty to protect the Hindus of Bangladesh and support them in times of distress, and we will always stand by them,” said Mr. Adityanath, while addressing a public gathering at the installation of the grand statue of the Acharyas of Shri Ram Darbar at the Ayodhya Vidyapeeth campus in Milkipur, Ayodhya. The visit to Milkipur holds significance as the Assembly constituency is slated to go for polls after the resignation of Awadhesh Prasad who got elected as Lok Sabha member from Faizabad seat in 2024 polls. Mr. Adityanath accused the Opposition of remaining silent over the atrocities faced by Hindus, especially Dalits, in Bangladesh.
