Bangladeshi journalist Sajen Shamsuddoza downplayed attacks on Hindus

Op India  

On 7th August, in an interview with The Wire, Sajen Shamsuddoza, a journalist at Bangladeshi media house The Daily Star attempted to downplay the severity of the recent attack on the Hindu community following the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina amidst ongoing protests and violence. While he has downplayed the attack on Hindus, it was his employer media house, The Daily Star, that had reported that there were attacks on Hindus in 27 districts across Bangladesh. On the international platform, The New York Times called the attack on Hindus “revenge attacks” in the headline of a report and changed it after backlash on social media. There is a common feeling that the people want a new political party rather than the existing ones.” Speaking on the possibility of fundamentalists taking control of the country, Sajen Shamsuddoza said that Islamic parties like Jamaat-e-Islami have never gained more than 5% votes in elections.
