Violence against the Hindu community is not stopping even during the ongoing Durga Puja celebrations in neighboring country Bangladesh. According to police reports, so far 35 such incidents have taken place in which 17 people have been arrested and about a dozen cases have been registered.

Durga Puja is being organized in more than 32,000 pandals across the country. Last month, before the Durga Puja celebrations, Islamic groups had threatened the Hindu community not to celebrate Durga Puja, after which the interim government's religious affairs advisor AFM Khalid Hussain had warned that strict action would be taken against anyone who resorts to violence.

Giving information on the attacks during Durga Puja in the country, Director General of Police Moinul Islam said, since October 1, there have been 35 incidents related to Durga Puja celebrations, in which 11 cases have been registered, 24 general diaries have been filed and 17 persons have been arrested.

In this case, Krishna Mukherjee, leader of Bangladesh Hindu Buddhist Christian Unity Council, has demanded the government arrest the accused as soon as possible. Bangladesh Police has identified a person in the case of theft of the crown and has assured to arrest him soon. After this incident came into discussion, the Indian High Commission in Bangladesh expressed its objection.
