Mumbai: Actress Rashami Desai has raised her voice against atrocities on Hindu girls in Bangladesh, after they were reportedly attacked, since the resignation of former Prime Minister of Bangladesh Sheikh Hasina August 5.
Taking to Instagram Stories, Rashami re-shared a video, posted by a news website, which shows a Hindu girl being attacked by a group of people, and later she was thrown into a pond.
Rashami wrote in the caption: “Why humans are trying to become God or demon. Jabke there lot to face in life. Karma comes back”, followed by several broken heart emojis.
Horrendous acts of violence have been reported against the Hindu community in Bangladesh since August 5. The Bangladesh Jatiya Hindu Mohajot (BJHM), a grand national alliance of 23 religious organisations in the country, said that Hindu families have faced violence and vandalism at as many as 278 locations across 48 districts of the nation since August 5.
