The interim government of Mohammad Yunus in Bangladesh completed 100 days of its tenure on 16 November. A report released by Transparency International Bangladesh on 18 November stated that violence against Hindus has increased under the rule of the interim government of Bangladesh. The Yunus administration has failed to stop crimes against minorities. According to this report, between 5 and 20 August, more than 2 thousand cases of crime against minorities were reported, in which 9 minorities died. In these cases, the government has been negligent in identifying and punishing the criminals. Since the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government, attacks against minorities, especially Hindus, have increased in Bangladesh. During this time, Durga Puja and other religious programs have also been targeted. In these 100 days, cultural programs and crafts academy were attacked at 22 places in Bangladesh. Due to these attacks, cultural programs and fairs also had to be banned. Yunus is targeting political opponents The Rights and Risk Analysis Group (RRAG) has stated in a report that the Yunus administration is not much different from the old government of Sheikh Hasina. The Yunus government has not taken any action to stop the atrocities on minorities in the country. Apart from this, the Yunus administration is targeting its political opponents by using force. The Yunus administration has targeted more than 2 lakh people in 1598 cases. Most of these people were political opponents of Yunus. Attacks on Hindus are happening continuously since August Ever since the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government in Bangladesh, cases of attacks on Hindus were coming to the fore. Hindu temples were damaged at many places in the country. Just a few days ago, a case of sedition was registered against the secretary of the ISKCON organization and 18 people in Chittagong. They were accused of hoisting a saffron flag above the national flag on the Azadi Stambh in the New Market of Chittagong. ‘Sanatani’ was written on this flag. After the violence in Bangladesh, former PM Sheikh Hasina came to India on 5 August. She had resigned from her post. On 22 August, the interim government also canceled the diplomatic passports of Hasina and her family members. After this, an interim government was formed in Bangladesh on 8 August.
