US condemns Hindu worker's killing, urges Bangladesh to safeguard minorities.
The US State Department has condemned the recent killing of Dipu Chandra Das, a Hindu garment worker in Bangladesh, following a brutal attack by a mob allegedly motivated by blasphemy. This incident has raised concerns over the safety of religious minorities in Bangladesh, particularly Hindus, amidst a backdrop of increasing religious violence and political instability. Prominent US lawmakers, including Congressman Ro Khanna, have urged for a strong denunciation of such acts of hatred and emphasized the importance of protecting minority rights as a core aspect of American foreign policy. The situation underscores the urgent need for measures to ensure the security of all communities to foster long-term stability in Bangladesh.
