I hope our lawmakers are watching these news where minorities are being left unprotected by our administration. According to the following report, all these attackers were Hindus themselves. Why Hindu leaders are not speaking up against them?
While we are going after those "Pakistani allies of 71" who burnt this temple during 71, it is equally important that, we do not live in the past and take strict measures on these extortionist vandals who are attacking a place of worship in the year 2010.
Should we wait 30 more years before we do something about it? I hope not.......
Shalom.

Hope Bangladesh Hindu Buddha Christian Oikya Parishad will talk to our PM to bring justice to Utpal Saha and other BCL terrorists who attacked a place of worship.

Hindu temple vandalized by ruling party men in Bangladesh
A group of ruling party activists of Dhaka University wing vandalized several deities at Ramna Kali Mandir [Temple of goddess Kali in Dhaka] following confrontation between activists of the same party on question of collecting extortion from the locality.
Right after the incident, police arrested Animesh, Govinda and Prakash, who are members of Bangladesh Chhatra League [student from of the ruling party] from the spot while they were continuing such notoriety.
Police sources told reporters that the clash had erupted over ownership and extortion into shops located in the area.According to eye witnesses, during afternoon of Saturday [October 30, 2010], at least 45-50 activists of the ruling Bangladesh Awami League [BAL]'s student front, led by Utpal Saha, armed with machetes, iron rods, cricket stumps and hockey sticks went on the rampage and vandalized at least two deities inside the temple and ransacked the rooms of the priest.
It may be mentioned here that, since Bangladesh Awami League came in power in January 2009, members of its student wing are seen active in violence in almost all the university campuses in the country. Bangladesh Chhatra League is openly involving in extortion, terrorism, grabbing land and properties and various forms of illegal activities and the government has virtually become captive in their hands.
