Guwahati (Assam) [India], December 11 (ANI): Assam Minister and Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) President of Atul Bora on Tuesday expressed hope that the 'atrocities' on minorities in Bangladesh will get resolved soon.
Speaking to ANI, Atul Bora said, "...Bangladesh shouldn't forget what our country has done for them. Whatever is happening there....atrocities on Hindus is very saddening. A senior official of the (central) government went there; I hope things will get resolved soon...
He further said that the borders should be guarded to stop the infiltration from Bangladesh.
"Congress, during its tenure, has done nothing but since PM Modi assumed power, things have changed," he added.
Earlier, Nobel laureate Kailash Satyarthi expressed his disillusionment at the ongoing atrocities against minorities, especially Hindus in Bangladesh.
On Human Rights Day, Satyarthi said that an attack on Human rights is an attack on the conscience.
He called on his fellow Nobel laureate, Chief Advisor of Bangladesh, Muhammad Yunus, to address the situation.
"The suppression of minorities and the violation of human rights anywhere is an attack on our collective conscience. In these challenging times, I call upon my fellow Nobel Laureate, Muhammad Yunus, to address this evolving situation without any delay. I am sure he will rise as a beacon of moral courage and compassionate leadership to control the ongoing violence that is denying the human rights of millions of people," he said.
Satyarthi said he believed that with compassionate leadership, the situation would improve.
Meanwhile, India's former High Commissioner to Bangladesh, Veena Sikri, has said that Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri's statement on India's ties with Bangladesh clearly highlights that New Delhi is prepared to work with the interim administration in Dhaka and speak to them on continuing cooperation.
Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, called on chief advisor to the interim government in Bangladesh, Muhammad Yunus on Monday, who called the relationships between Dhaka and New Delhi as "very solid" and "close," according to a statement released by his office.
He also told reporters in Dhaka that he had a frank, candid, and constructive exchange of views with his interlocutors in the neighboring country. Misri said he discussed the entire gamut of issues in the "extremely important bilateral relationship." (ANI)
