Bangladesh

We are often told, “The Indian government is not doing enough to save Hindus in Bangladesh.”It is emotionally satisfying. But, what exactly should the government do? Spell out the roadmap. Because outrage without strategy may comfort the outraged, but it rarely protects the victim.

The US intervention in Venezuela did not emerge in a vacuum. It is part of a long and deeply troubling history of American-led regime change across the world. From Vietnam to Iraq, from Afghanistan to Syria, Washington has repeatedly justified military action as a way to remove “bad regimes” and replace them with democratic systems.

As Hindus face brutal persecution in Bangladesh, the Left erupted in outrage, not over the violence, but over the BCCI dropping a Bangladeshi cricketer from the IPL.

Human rights lose moral force when attention appears conditional. Advocacy loses credibility when outrage is immediate in some theatres but restrained or absent in others. For the victims and their families, this disparity is not academic, but it shapes whether justice is pursued with seriousness or allowed to dissolve into procedural formality and forgotten headlines.
