'You spoke a lot on Gaza, why are you silent on the Hindus of Bangladesh?' Anurag targeted Rahul

Parliament Session: BJP MP Anurag Thakur on Friday fiercely targeted Congress and Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha. He said that Congress and Rahul Gandhi worry about Gaza but remain silent on the atrocities being committed on Hindus in Bangladesh. He said that PM Narendra Modi congratulated the head of the interim government of Bangladesh through social media and said that the security and development of our Hindus and minorities there should be ensured, but Congress did not do so.

'Big things were said about Gaza'

Thakur said that Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge and Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi did not even mention the safety of Hindus and minorities while congratulating the head of the interim government of Bangladesh. He said that it is unfortunate that when the Leader of Opposition and the Congress President congratulated the head of the interim government of Bangladesh, they did not talk about the safety of Hindus there. He questioned what was the compulsion that they could not talk about the safety of Hindus and minorities, while Congress had said big things about Gaza.

After Mohammad Yunus took oath, PM Modi congratulated him through social media. Along with this, PM Modi raised his voice against the attack on Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh and also urged Mohammad Yunus to ensure their safety.

BJP attacks Congress' silence

On the other hand, Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi also congratulated Mohammad Yunus. However, in his congratulatory message, he did not say anything about the atrocities being committed against Hindus and minorities in Bangladesh. BJP alleges that all the leaders of Congress have not spoken a single word against the atrocities on Hindus in Bangladesh. This is the reason why BJP is constantly targeting Congress.

My best wishes to Professor Muhammad Yunus on the assumption of his new responsibilities. We hope for an early return to normalcy, ensuring the safety and protection of Hindus and all other minority communities. India remains committed to working with Bangladesh to fulfill the…
