Quick Read
Days after a Hindu man named Dipu Chandra Das was killed in Bangladesh, there has been concern escalating to anger and outrage here. Hindu outfit Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has specifically announced that they will lead a protest outside the Bangladesh Deputy High Commission in Mumbai’s Cuffe Parade on Tuesday afternoon. The announcement was made on Monday at a press conference held at the Marathi Patrakar Sangh, Azad Maidan.
VHP’s International President, Alok Kumar, said at the outset, “Dipu Chandra Das was brutally killed. Even after he was dead, his body was set on fire.” Kumar pointed to the reason why Das was killed for ‘blasphemy’. He claimed that Das had posted a comment on social media, merely stating that all religions lead one on to the same correct path and that they are all equal. “This is not blasphemous, yet it was construed to be a criticism of Islam, and Das paid with his life.”
