Alarming decrease in Hindu population in Bangladesh

[ShadowFaux]

Oh God. Enough of this Hindu Muslim thing.

Listen everyone! Bangladesh is not for Muslims only. It's for Hindu's too!

People from all religions of Bangladesh live in peace together mostly. But yes, there have been incidents where Hindu's were specifically targeted by some political parties. They have been the victims of killings, rape and plundering. Everyone in Bangladesh knows that. Now the thing is, they are not only migrating to India, they are migrating to other countries as well; just like the Muslims; for better social security. People from Bangladesh go to USA, Canada, Europe, Australia each year for education or immigration purpose. People who go for education purpose, they compare the lifestyle of both countries, and decide to settle there. Now, lets say, there are 100 Hindu's and 900 Muslims in Bangladesh. Hindu percentage is 10%. Now 50 from each community decide to go abroad. So, now the Hindu percentage becomes 5.55%. So, same amount of people from both communities are leaving the country, but the percentage of Hindu's are decreasing. Just because of their historical low population.

Okay, now, some people are going to India. Most of the cases, they had relatives living there from before. Some of them migrated after 1947. Some of them after 1971. And some of them living in India even before 1947. Now, if they had enough social security, why would they leave the country?

@Iajdani
I have something to say man. You said something about Hindu's stealing money etc. So, when a Hindu family is cornered and don't have enough courage to live in THEIR OWN LAND anymore, they should just distribute all their money and lands to other people before fleeing the country, is that what you're trying to say? I'm sorry man, but I don't agree.

Generally Hindus live in peace with the Muslims. But right before/right after elections, there have been many incidents to drown the community in fear.

No one wants to leave their own lands unless they are forced. Shouldn't be too hard to comprehend.

Now, I hope Hindus and Muslims will live in our country together and will prosper together. We are brothers. Though some might forget, but WE ARE BROTHERS. And we are members of an Independent country. Long live Bangladesh.

I agree with the Indian posters who seem to infer another partition is due. Let Muslim majority parts of Bihar, P/bangla, Assam - NE and Andaman Nicobar come to BD. Let Muslim districts of E Punjab-Haryana, Lakkadive, Junagadh-Manvadar and J&K go to Pakistan. Let Kerala become autonomous.

Lets do the partition........ West BD goes to India and East BD to BD muslim.....50 ..50.....Done....so easy.....

I acknowledge the threat India faces from Muslim and Christian community. And solution is there. Divide again and this time fairly and equally.

BD can mediate and work as a referee.

lol!!!
Christian community poses a threat??

I think Hindu community feel alienated in Muslim majority Bangladesh. It's a class of culture and ideology. Perhaps Hindus are uncomfortable living among Muslims due to the fact that we consume a lot of Cow. I have witness many well off Hindus migrated to West Bengal over the years. There aren't much we can do to make them stay if they don't want to because 90% ain't going to change their ways to satisfy 7%.

You can stop killing Hindus after Jamaat e Islami goes to power for a starter! And oh, by 'you' I don't mean the whole Muslim community; only the people who kill Hindus and break Protima's and plunder Hindu households, rape women etc etc

I've seen the last time it happened. It was just sad.

ADDITION | And oh, not changing the way, that's your opinion. And you don't even live in Bangladesh. But most of the Muslims I know, are very friendly, and they are even ready to make a few adjustments in their lives to make the Hindus more comfortable.

Thats going to increase your problem many fold. If we let go West BD which is the poorest part of the country for being close proximity with poor people of WB which will only increase the total poor muslim population in India. The end result will be a bigger partition of India.

Bro, not muslim men. Just some opportunists taking advantage of the situation. I don't think religion has anything to do with it.

Bro, some of them might be. But I don't believe all of them are. As I've said before, religious freaks exist on both sides of the border. But I bet most of the people of the subcontinent are peace-loving. I've been in India. I've seen how people from both religions celebrate Eid and Puja. Same here in Bangladesh. Let us cut them some slack. They will come around.

You did not go to India at the time of Gujrat rioting. YOu did not go to Assam at the time of Nellie massacre. Dont put us in the same shoes as Indians.

But I was here right after Jamaat came to power. I've seen extremism. Just don't want more of it.
