Genocide of Indigenous People in Bangladesh by Muslims

[my2cents]

Do you know bro, that Jinnah was expecting the same...Asam and some other states (perhaps joona garh, i forget from my text book, there were controversial states and decision were made in night)...were illegitemately joined with India...As one of these states ruler was muslim (with populaton mostly hindues), but that ruler joined it with Pakistan (BD I guess), but then India occupied it saying its population is in majority hindues, ----but alas! their same judgment could not be applied for poor our Kashmiris bros (who were in majority muslims) as it's idiot ruler joined it with India and then India forget its earlier rule of thumb...

It is Junagadh and Hyderabad you are talking about. You are right about Junagadh-- that Nizam of Junagadh joined Pakistan, much to the displeasure of many people of his state, majority constituents being Hindus. In the case of Hyderabad(located in south India), the Nizam was ambivalent about joining Pakistan and wanted to be independent. His majority constituents were Hindus. In both the cases the princely states were surrounded on all sides by India.

Here is the crux of the issue you guys miss in your textbooks. Mohammad Ali Jinnah main argument for partition was that Muslims and Hindus cannot live together as one nation. He wanted to create a separate nation for Muslims of Indian subcontinent. Now on what bases Junagadh and Hyderabad being Hindu majority states should join Pakistan. It is against the two nation theory championed by him. Also, Junagadh and Hyderabad had no shared border with West and East Pakistan. How can two small princely states exist inside India with no shared border??? In the case of Junagadh, the nawab fearing for his life was forced to flee to Karachi by the people of his state. Junagadh with tensions brewing between Hindus and Muslim communities and with no Nawab in sight, it was just matter of time, it would have joined India. Hyderabad took little longer with its Nawab adamant on remaining independent.

It is to the credit of both Jawaharlal Nehru and Sardar Vallabahbai Patel, who in their wisdom saw the simmering discontent and
heightened communal tensions, ordered the Indian Army to annex them by force. It was an easy walkover for Indian army with no major loss of life.

Every child is born a muslim until his/her parents bring him up to be a non-muslim. ISLAM is the true nature of every human being as it is the religion(way of life) ordained by Allah(swt) for us. A child is masum (innocent) but his parents are not. Got the point.

Are you fcking serious? Is this what you people believe?

West part of Bengal has always been more urban and industrial while East part because of it's remote location and too many rivers blocking navigation has been in Shurawardy's parlance - An overpopulated rural slum.



Murshidabad was exchanged with Khulna and Murshidabad is in West Bengal. Dhaka was more like an outpost for Mughals to curb the Mog and Portuguese pirates, it was hardly a capital.

Wari Bawteshar is figment of imagination of Bangladeshis.

Murshidabad was a natural choice for capital as it was not only Bengal but Bihar and Orissa were also ruled from Murshidabad/Gaur. There was nothing in WB in those era except Gaur which is actually in the border of BD/India and some of the structure still falls withing BD border.

It was a blunder of partition to have CHT be handed overto the fundamentalists.

It was a blunder of Partition to have Assam and the Norhteast handed over to Hindu terrorists. That land is Bengali land and now the Hindus have been carrying out mass Genocide against Bengali Muslims there.

Those were not Muslim majority areas.

They're not Indian areas either.

Bangladesh is the land of Bengalis. That whole region along with West Bengal is majority Bengali and we have had relations with Tibeto-Burman tribals for centuries. The Indians are just random foreigners who have come in.

 

[Bangla25]

I don't want Assam or any of the Nprtheast. Let India have those areas. Also we should evacuate the tribal populations from Bangladesh into the Northeast and the Hindu Bengalis into West Bengal (although I might make an exception for them since they are Bengali). Bangladesh is for Muslim Bengalis.

Wrong! Bangladesh is the land of Muslims, maybe Bengali Muslims, and that's why Bengali Hindus had been driven away from Bangladesh and left overs are continued to be persecuted and driven away to West Bengal of India. Don't distort history please, East Pakistan was created on religious lines.

That's totally incorrect. Today the advantages the BD Hindus get in employment, education , promotion,etc far exceeds what would be authorized to a 5% minority. Bengali Hindus maintain families on either side of the divide. This was limited to the well-to-do pre-47 but is now almost 100%. They are reducing because of biological reasons, food habits, life style and copulation inhibitions. That is why Hindu population is dwindling in Hindu India also.

Leaving aside the lame excuses, East Pakistan was created on religious lines, and not on the basis of (Bengali) ethnicity. Bengali Hindus were murdered and driven out of East Pakistan (which is known as Bangladesh today) during the time of partition (of undivided India) to create a pure Muslim land, and not a land for Bengalis as the other member claims here.

1.The new country that was created to designate Muslim majority areas was/is called Pakistan. This project was successful largely because of Bengali Muslims who had been suffering under the serfdom of British and their Hindu agents since 1773, Permanent Settlement Act. That Act had transformed the affluent Bengali Muslims into slaves of newly appointed Hindu zamindars. At partition transfer of population was not in the cards. More Muslims left the Hindu part than the other war round. Yes Hindu feudal were dethroned by new laws. Hindu money-lender banyas were uprooted again by law.
2. Of course, E Pak/BD is a nation of Bengali Muslims. However, here the minority enjoy privileges far beyond their due. And we feel this is an example Hindu India should follow rather than decimating the minorities.
