Re: [mukto-mona] Fwd: [ALOCHONA] Amendments to controversial Enemy Act rejected



Across history, Muslims always considered non-Muslim properties as mal-e-ganimat, religiously sanctioned to them.  Being on the wrong side of ethical standard, no Muslim such as Q. A. Rahman should raise question on what other religious groups have done to them.

A correction to Dr. Roy's comment below; ordinary Hindus did not leave Pakistan/Bangladesh for India for 'whatever reasons'. They left because of systematic hatred and discrimination in their homeland of centuries by religious majority controlled governments, not just by ordinary criminals. All the Muslims migration from India happened during the turbulent break up of the subcontinent in and around 1947. Most of the Hindu migration from Pakistan and Bangladesh happened during pretty normal times - ignore the 1971 migration which was mostly reversed shortly after the independence of Bangladesh on December 16, 1971.

There is a big difference between what Pakistani-King is asking and what Hindus in Bangladesh are asking. Bangladesh is not returning the properties of Hindu Kings and Jamindars. This is an attempt to return properties taken from ordinary folks who left for India for whatever reasons. I am skeptical about its success. Only time will tell. The difference between these two claims is huge, and we should analyze it with proper context. Otherwise it will be construed as toying with anti-Indian sentiment.
