Bangladesh's Haunting Memories and Desperate Pleas: Hindu Refugees Recount 1971 Horror in Bangladesh
Following the independence of Bangladesh, many Hindus faced severe persecution, prompting mass migration to India. Stories from refugees like Sushil Gangopadhyay and Anima Das reveal harrowing experiences of violence and displacement during the Bangladesh Liberation War. Despite seeking safety in India, the trauma of their past remains vivid, with ongoing violence against Hindus in Bangladesh reinforcing their fears. Current refugees express relief at their safety in India but demand international intervention to safeguard the rights of Hindus in Bangladesh. Their collective experiences underscore a persistent insecurity and highlight the need for protective measures for minority communities in Bangladesh.

11:14We want them to see the world from here.
11:18If they don't, they will be sold, they will be harmed.
11:25When did you come from that country?
11:27I came to this country after the independence struggle.
11:31When you came here, how were you treated?
11:35Were you treated with respect?
11:37How were you tortured?
11:42We were tortured by the Hindus from the last days of Pakistan.
11:49Even after independence, we were good there.
11:52Even then, we didn't go to the streets.
11:55We didn't show any hatred towards the Hindus.
12:01We are working for the well-being of all.
12:03What were you facing at that time?
12:07What problems did you face?
12:09At the time of independence, all Hindus and Muslims in Bangladesh were protesting for freedom.
12:16At the time of independence, all Hindus and Muslims in Bangladesh were protesting for freedom.

12:40Did you have to flee?
12:41Yes, we had to flee.
12:43How were those days?
12:44It was a very difficult time.
12:46We had to leave everything.
12:48We had to leave our birthplace.
12:50We had to leave the world.
12:51It was a difficult time.
12:52But we had to survive.
12:56We had to save our dignity.
12:58That is why we had to flee in the darkness of the night.
13:01Did you have to hide?
13:03We had to hide in many places.
13:05At times, we had to hide in the water.
13:07There were many people who died in the water.
13:11Many people were killed in the firing.
13:14Where is Malayalam? Where are the Hindus?
13:17There is a word in Malayalam.
13:19My sister-in-law used to say Malayalam is here.
13:24We heard that Malayalam is in this place.
13:26There are Hindus and Muslims living in this place.
13:32They make this place their home.
13:36They are still in that country.
13:38We don't have a place to live.
13:41The Hashina government can't give us what we want.
13:45They can't give us.
13:47They have to throw everything away.
13:50There are still a lot of people who are in trouble.
13:54A lot of people have been killed.
13:56The atrocities that are happening,
13:58we want to do something about it from the Indian side.
14:00We want to stand by the people.
14:02Do you have any application from the Modi government?
14:05I am asking the government to do something.
14:08So that the people of Bangladesh can live well.
14:11Do something for them.
14:14Do you have any problems after coming to this country?
14:19No, not like that.
14:20We are living in a difficult situation.
14:22We are trying to earn money.
14:25But that is the only difficulty.
14:27At night, we don't know if someone is harassing us.
14:31Or if someone took something from our house.
14:34We are free from that.
14:36Did you come to this country from Bangladesh?
14:38Yes.
14:39When did you come?
14:40I came to Bangladesh in 1956.
14:42Why didn't you come when you came?
14:46I came because the Muslims of that country were very angry with us.
14:51They were angry with our house.
14:54They were angry with the women.
14:56They cut our house.
14:58They cut my grandfather in front of me.

15:21We don't want to go there again.
15:25We said that we don't want our land.
15:27We said that we will live here.
15:29There is peace here.
15:31But no one is harassing us.
15:33Even if we live there,
15:35we can't sleep at night.
15:40They cut my grandfather in front of me.
15:44They cut my grandfather in front of me.
