The pogrom that started on 5 August, post Sheikh Hasina's removal, is continuing. But now that the Hindus are standing up against the massacre of their co-religionists by Islamists, the regime in Dhaka and its followers and backers have started branding anyone who speaks out as a terrorist.
Bearing the brunt of this ire is the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), a Hindu sect popularly known as the Hare Krishna movement, established by Swami Prabhupada in 1966. The sect has a major international following. Even Tulsi Gabbard, who has been picked by Donald Trump to be his Director of National Intelligence, is an ISKCON devotee. Practitioners of non-violence, ISKCON members are among the most peaceful that the world has known and are involved in major philanthropic activities. They draw their inspiration from the 15th century Bhakti movement saint Shri Chaitanya, the founder of Vaishnavism.
