As Bangladesh grapples with escalating violence following student-led protests demanding reservation reforms and the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, spiritual leader and founder of the Isha Foundation, Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, has expressed his concerns on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). Sadhguru has called for urgent action to protect Hindus in Bangladesh, emphasizing the need for the Indian government to intervene and provide support.
Standing in Solidarity
Sadhguru highlighted the importance of standing in solidarity with the Hindu community, stating that if India fails to protect its people, it can never truly be called the "Mahabharat." He remarked on the unfortunate transformation of a region once part of India into a neighboring state and stressed the responsibility of safeguarding those who share our civilization and heritage.
Reports indicate that attacks and looting have targeted Hindu residences and businesses across 27 districts in Bangladesh. In his post, Sadhguru urged for measures to ensure the safety and security of the Hindu community amid the violence and unrest.
Nationwide Protests
The unrest in Bangladesh was sparked by calls from students for nationwide protests against reservation reforms. This movement has gained significant support from the general public, leading to widespread demonstrations that have turned violent. Many have been killed or severely injured during the protests, prompting the government to impose curfews in an attempt to restore order. Despite these measures, student protests have intensified, challenging the capabilities of security forces to maintain peace and stability.
Sadhguru's response reflects growing international concern over the situation in Bangladesh, highlighting the need for immediate and effective intervention to prevent further escalation and ensure the protection of vulnerable communities.
