The Statesman|November 28, 2024
ISKCON Kolkata Vice President and spokesperson Radharaman Das on Wednesday strongly condemned the arrest of Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari, a prominent Hindu priest and religious minority leader in Bangladesh and said this was "nothing short of genocide."

Radharaman Das expressed his concern over the growing unrest in the country, which has been intensifying for over a hundred days, particularly targeting minorities.

"Chinmoy Krishna Das became the voice of the resistance movement in Bangladesh, speaking out against the atrocities being committed against religious minorities," Das said.

He highlighted that the ongoing protests have attracted massive participation, with hundreds of thousands of people in Dhaka joining the rallies demanding justice.
