On this special report of India First, host Gaurav Sawant examines the systematic targeting of Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh under the Professor Muhammad Yunus administration. Former Indian High Commissioner Veena Sikri describes the current situation as the ‘worst ever since 1971’, alleging that minorities are being forced to pay ‘Jizya tax’ or face death. While Bangladeshi columnist Shafqat Rabbi argues the violence is a result of a general breakdown in law and order during an election cycle, other panelists, including General KJS Dhillon and Abhijit Iyer Mitra, contend the attacks are a deliberate, ISI-backed ethnic cleansing. The programme explores the lack of inclusive elections and the potential for Bangladesh to face radicalisation similar to Afghanistan. The discussion highlights the perceived silence of the international community regarding these human rights violations as the interim government enters its eighteenth month in power, with reports of lynchings, land grabs, and the suppression of media freedom continuing unabated.
