00:00In the morning, between 2 and 3 am, there is a famous center of ISKCON in Dhaka, Ujjwila.
00:20Some people came there, threw petrol and burnt the entire temple.
00:26The statue of Shri Lakshmi Narayan Ji, Shri Radha Krishna and many other deities were there.
00:34The statue of Lakshmi Narayan Ji has been completely destroyed.
00:38The entire temple has been burnt.
00:40This is very sad.
00:42We were hoping that the violence would reduce.
00:47It has been reduced by a little since two days.
00:51The attack that took place in another temple of ISKCON is very sad.
00:56Yesterday, the head of the interim government had a meeting with the heads of Hindu, Buddhist and other minorities.
01:06We were hoping that there would be a change in the situation.
01:12But what we are seeing on the ground is a different picture.
01:17Another attack has taken place.
01:19I have some videos with me.
01:22We can see that some people are saying very dangerous things for ISKCON devotees.
01:28They are saying that if ISKCON is not banned, we will give them a few days.
01:34And if the government does not ban ISKCON, we will start killing ISKCON people ourselves.
01:39First of all, if such incitements are being given,
01:44the government should arrest such people.
01:48Because many people are being incited in this way.
01:52And as a result of that, we can see that the attacks are still not stopping.
01:59We are constantly seeing these incidents.
02:01You are saying that the incident is sad.
02:04We are hoping that the government there will fix it.
02:07But if you look at it, the government is the one who is suspected in all this.
02:12ISKCON is such a big organization.
02:14It is happening in such a country.
02:16The rest of the countries are not saying anything.
02:18Some of you do not feel this way. Do you feel this way?
02:21Naturally, we are feeling very helpless.
02:24That is why we held a prayer meeting on Sunday, December 1, all over the world.
02:31And even now, the devotees are going.
02:33We are praying for the minorities there.
02:36This is the hope that the way the incitement is being given,
02:41and until the attacks in the minority areas are not punished,
02:48I think it will not stop.
02:51The head of the ISKCON, the interim government, also met with them.
03:00And he said that whenever there is an attack in your temple,
03:05if you tell us, we will protect you.
03:08So it happened that they have given security in some of our temples.
03:12And when the news of the attack came two or three times,
03:15and when our devotees told them there,
03:18the army sent it and stopped it.
03:21But then we saw that today there was an attack.
03:24So this is what the people who are giving these incitement speeches,
03:28and the people who are attacking,
03:30until the government takes action against them,
03:33we do not think that this situation is going to be normal.
03:37Our foreign missionaries are likely to go to Bangladesh next week.
03:41Do you have any hope from this?
03:43We have a lot of hope.
03:45And we hope that their visit will be fruitful,
03:50and something will come out of it.
