Tipra Motha Leader Urges International Action on Bangladesh Minority Oppression

Tipra Motha supremo Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma has called on India to expose Bangladesh for failing to protect its minorities. During a rally in South Tripura, he highlighted ongoing attacks on temples and churches targeting minorities. He urged the Indian government to raise the issue at the United Nations.

Tipra Motha supremo Pradyot Kishore Manikya Debbarma on Thursday urged the Centre to expose Bangladesh for its failure to protect minorities.

Addressing a solidarity rally in Sabroom, South Tripura, he said, ''Since Sheikh Hasina was ousted, attacks on temples, churches, and properties of minorities in Bangladesh have become commonplace, systematically aiming to displace them.'' Debbarma emphasised that this pattern of violence against minorities has persisted for decades, noting, ''The agenda is to systematically drive out minorities from their homeland and seize their properties.'' He urged the Indian government to bring this issue to international attention, particularly at the United Nations, to pressure Dhaka regarding the oppression of minorities.

''The government of India must take the issue to the United Nations and put pressure on Dhaka over the oppression of minorities'', he said.

Expressing solidarity with those affected, he reassured the minorities across the border that Tiprasa people stand with them during these challenging times.
