Atrocities in Bangladesh
Dear Editor,
The recent rapes, killings, burnings, desecrations against Hindus in Bangladesh bring into sharp focus the fate of minorities in three Muslim dominated countries in Asia.
One can only hope that the government brings to justice the perpetrators, and that the teachings that bear such fruits do not find fertile soil in Guyana.
The systemic decimation of Hindus in these countries is not finding the kind of media coverage it deserves and this raises several questions which I will raise later.
For now, we in Guyana must celebrate and give thanks for our diversity. Perhaps the government should issue a statement of condemnation of the atrocities committed in Bangladesh and reaffirm its commitment to global and local diversity
The media, too, must cover such issues fairly and fearlessly and not highlight atrocities committed on other groups disproportionately.
Thank you.
Yours truly,
P. Lall
