Propaganda of the Bangladesh Hindu-Buddhist-Christian Unity Council

It is very unfortunate that a rootless and signboard-oriented organisation named Bangladesh Hindu-Buddhist-Christian Unity Council (BHBCUC), is engaged in subversive acts of defaming Bangladesh at home and abroad. BHBCUC acts as a tool of neighbouring countries of Bangladesh to implement its ulterior design. One of the burning examples of its notorious activities, are the letters sent to the UN Secretary General Kofi Annan and to Bill Clinton's Global Institute.

The letters were identical in their contents, views and objectives. Both of them repeated the same fabricated and baseless allegations that were used earlier thousands of times since the ruling alliance government assumed power in Bangladesh in 2001. BHBCUC has immediate and far-reaching objectives. Its short-term objective is to launch slanderous allegation against the government and Muslims who are liberal democrats and comprise about 90 per cent of the total population of Bangladesh.

The main objective of the present write-up is to disprove the allegation that BHBCUC and its mentor propagate in home and abroad through their different channels. The letter written to Kofi Annan itself proves for whose interest BHBCUC works. It makes same allegation what India makes. It wants to damage the image of Bangladesh , which also India does and wants. BHBCUC also invited foreign intervention in Bangladesh, which is also an Indian agenda. But India cannot officially suggest UN Secretary General to prohibit the presence of Bangladesh Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia and cancel her address to the UN General Assembly. India used BHBCUC to write letter to Kofi Annan with the request that Bangladesh Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia should not be allowed to address the General Assembly because of the following reasons.

Her government is engaged in killing and torturing the opposition elements. This allegation is totally untrue. It is the agenda of pro-India political party in Bangladesh. No innocent activist belonging to opposition parties was killed so far. It is known to all that many terrorists to avoid the harassment and arrest outwardly join political parties to use them as shield. These terrorists created a reign of terror in the country since the present government came to power. Law enforcers naturally nabbed some of these terrorists and a few of them were killed in cross-firing. When they were taken to recover arms from the hideouts, their accomplices opened fire at the law enforcers and at times terrorists were killed. BHBCUC in its letter branded cross-firing as extra-judicial killing. The most wanted terrorists were killed by shootings of their accomplice, but BHBCUC and its mentors hold the government responsible for it. These types of killings are vogue in India, and elsewhere in the world. India eliminated hundreds of thousands of freedom fighters in Kashmir, Punjab and Northeast Indian states during the last 58 years. Besides, several lakhs of Muslims, Buddhists, Christians and Untouchable Hindus were killed in India in communal and caste violence and rioting. But none ever suggested that the Indian Prime Minister should be barred from addressing any session of UN. Making such request, BHBCUC virtually stood against Bangladesh, its independence and sovereignty. BHBCUC elements frequently make such irresponsible and treasonous comments and demands. If the government was really communal, no BHBCUC element could have stayed in the country.

Another allegation of BHBCUC is that the members of the minority communities are the victims of rape, murder, torture and arson. This is also an allegation propagated by India. To justify their claims, agents were let loose to make fabricated stories in home and abroad. But after investigation, it was found that none of the reports were genuine. On several occasions, police arrested some Hindus when they were making video footage to send them abroad. Even some Indian nationals of West Bengal were branded as Bangladeshis and they narrated fake stories of torture, rape, murder and arson to Indian and pro-Indian journalists, who circulated them in print and electronic media. India also hired some foreign journalists to make believable the fake stories of human rights violation in Bangladesh.

The allegation of BHBCUC about the closure of ETV proves what type of falsity it can propagate. It mentioned in the letter that the government of Khaleda Zia illegally and intentionally closed down the ETV Channel. The reality is that the then government illegally allowed privately owned ETV to use the property and other facilities of state-owned national TV, Bangladesh Television. Some leading personalities of Bangladesh took the shelter of the High Court and the Court declared the process of handing over public property to the privately-managed ETV illegal. In this way it was closed down. Government had nothing to do with the verdict of the Court.

It is to be mentioned that the foreigners are not duly informed of the happenings in Bangladesh. Availing of this situation, India, and her Bangladesh tentacles launch slanderous media campaign against Bangladesh. BHBCUC also spoke in favour of an NGO, named Proshika, saying that the government curbed its activities. . Proshika is infamous for its pro-India tilt. It was found involved in organizing, beyond its legal capacity, an anti-government sit-in programme clandestinely, called by a pro-India political party. Naturally government had to react, when its existence faced from an NGO, which was supposed to work for social welfare, not to implement other's political agenda. It is found that BHBCUC supports those fake issues, which are backed by India and her Bangladeshi allies.

Another fake allegation that BHBCUC made in the letter is the "rise of the warlords and terrorist groups" under the present government. It named Jagrato Muslim Janata Bangladesh, Bangla Bhai, Jamatul Mujahideen Bangladesh, etc. that were backed, in its (BHBBCU) language, by the government to surface. But the reality is something otherwise. The arrestees after the serial blast confessed that the bombs, their materials and technology were brought from India through different border routes. It was repeatedly flashed in the print media that ring leaders of JMB used to visit India without visa and legal documents on regular basis and held rounds of talks with the Indian secret services.

It is to be mentioned that India since Sheikh Hasina's regime (1996-2001) tried to make it believe to the Western world that Bangladesh is den of the Muslim extremists. India-financed dailies in Bangladesh tuning to Indian line published hundreds of fake news saying that the Muslim extremists were being trained in Chittagong Hill Tracts, Sundarbans and even in some institutions like madrashs and other religious sites. Police and other agencies of Bangladesh rushed to the spots as mentioned in the dailies. But after thorough investigation law enforcers found nothing. Several Western counties also investigated the fabricated reports and allegations made by India and the press, and found nothing. This made USA to repeatedly claim that there is no Islamic militancy in Bangladesh and it is a liberal Muslim democratic country. So it has become an imperative for India to justify her claim and allegation against Bangladesh. After US-led war on terror, India became more serious to brand Bangladesh as home of the terrorists. Her policymakers came to this conclusion to recruit agents from amongst those who are, at least, outwardly in favour of Islamic rule in Bangladesh. India used its own Muslim religious personalities to recruit and instigate their disciples to work for so-called Islamic revolution in Bangladesh . In this way, India succeeded in floating Muslim extremist outfits in Bangladesh to justify her claim before the international community.

Bangladeshi Muslims do not believe in extremism, as Islam does not allow it. The government drive, to net the criminals of August 17 bomb attacks, was hailed by all people irrespective of their ideological and political affiliation. If the government had any link with terrorist groups, they would not have disturbed the government under any circumstances. It is the adversaries of the present government that let loose its agents in the name of Islam, apprehending that their allies would not come to power in the next election if the present government is allowed to work smoothly and peacefully.

To isolate the government from the people, the adversaries used their 'trump card,' of serial bombings. It is as like as a horns of dilemma for the government. If the government nabs the people having beard in their face and caps on their head, it will naturally hurt the feelings of some Muslims who are not aware of the real reason of arrest. So they will go against the government. On the other hand, if the government does not arrest these persons apprehending people's resentment, it will prove that the government protects the terrorists. As a result, India and Western countries will find an excuse to invade Bangladesh, or at least squeeze it by imposing trade embargo, which India already threatened to do.

To incite the Western powers, BHBCUC did not forget to mention in the letter about child labour in Bangladesh, which prevails in all the third world counties, including India . Child labour and all the problems, including bombing also prevailed during the regime of Sheikh Hasina, but BHBCUC never spoke against them.

It is clear for whom BHBCUC works. BHBCUC and its mentors want to install a puppet government in Bangladesh. They know that if the four-party alliance remains intact and run for election jointly, pro-Indian elements will face a debacle. So their immediate target is to breach the unity of the alliance. For this reason, pro-Indian elements launched campaign against Jammat-e-Islam, in absence of which BNP may not be able to return to power. BHBCUC letters are directed to defame the Bangladesh government in the UN. BHBCUC mercenaries may also create more incidents of terror to throw the government to more awkward situation. Western countries, including UN should realise the games of India and its agents in Bangladesh like BHBCUC. India's long-term goal is to grab Bangladesh or make it a vassal state, if occupation is not possible.

Reports repeatedly published in the print media that Indian intelligence agencies train the Bangladeshi terrorists in Indian cities and military cantonments. Terrorists and armed cadres of the immediate-past government fled to India just after the general election of 2001. They were given guerrilla training by RAW. Besides, to disturb and disintegrate Bangladesh RAW raised several organisations, including 'Bangasena,' 'Bangladesh Udbastu Kollyan Samity,' 'Shaktisena,' etc., using those Indian nationals who or whose ancestors migrated voluntarily to India prior to or after the partition of the subcontinent in 1947. These oranisations, are believed to be involved in the subversive activities in the country.

Above all, the BHBCUC - a RAW-controlled group, comprise mainly with the Hindus, do not believe in the existence of Bangladesh. BHBCUC leaders, including Chitta Ranjan Datta, Nim Chandra Bhoumik, often make slanderous, and insulting comments against the country and its Muslim citizens in order to hurt and agitate them, so that communal riots could break out in the country. Government for unknown reason does not take stern action against the most treacherous anti-state communal comments of BHBCUC. Local socio-political parties, even the print media, are totally indifferent of the anti-state comments and activities of BHBCUC. Seminars, symposium and particularly TV-talk shows should be arranged in the national and private TV channels to unmask such activities. Whenever BHBCUC leaders make any objectionable and irresponsible comments they should be interrogated instantly and formal cases should be lodged against them on behalf of the patriotic citizens of the country. Due to the passive mood of the government and the common citizens, international community may think the comments of BHBCUC leaders as true and genuine. On the other hand BHBCUC leaders think that they are unchangeable and none can face them. Common citizens also started to think like this. So time has come to take action against them. Those who are using the name of BHBCUC in order to launch anti-Bangladesh propaganda in American and European counties should also be brought before the Court. Cases should be filed against them for their fake and irresponsible propaganda.

Besides, the illegal Indians, whose number exceeds one lakh, who are engaged in several professions from shopkeepers to business executives, might have linked with the terrorist activities inside Bangladesh. These illegal Indians should immediately be identified and legal action must be taken against them on an emergency basis. Otherwise the security and existence of the country will face serious debacle in future. These illegal Indians may be used to install a pro-Indian government in Bangladesh. All the private enterprises should immediately be asked to remove the Indian nationals from their organisations, otherwise legal actions should also be taken against them.*
