Massacre in Bihar
The Rabidas community in Bangladesh condemns the mayhem in the Indian state of Bihar, where at least 10 low caste Hindus were massacred by the upper caste militia. It is unfortunate that such heinous caste oppression still takes place in Indian society, after more than half a century of democratic rule. This does not bode well for the land of Gandhi and Nehru. And it is all the more shocking that the incident took place after the defeat of the BJP and reemergence of the Congress in the political arena.
The Rabidas community in Bangladesh expresses compassionate condolences to the bereaved families and the near and dear ones of the victims.
