Actor Sonu Sood recently shared a video on social media in which a Bangladeshi Hindu woman is seen pleading for help amid the unrest in Bangladesh. He expressed solidarity with the Hindu community there, urging everyone to help ‘fellow Indians’ stranded in violence-hit Bangladesh.

Sharing the video on Instagram, Sonu wrote in the caption, “We should try our best to bring back all our fellow Indians from Bangladesh so that they can have a good life here. It is not just the responsibility of our government, which is trying its best, but also of all of us. Jai Hind.”

The original video shared on X was titled, “A Bangladeshi Hindu woman expressing her pain about how Hindu genocide is happening in Bangladesh and wants to go to India to save her life.”

Meanwhile, scenes have emerged of Bangladesh’s Muslim clerics guarding a Hindu temple in Cumilla. A report in Bangladesh’s Daily Star said that homes and business establishments of Hindus were attacked and their valuables were looted by mobs in at least 27 districts on Monday.

An ISKCON temple and a Kali temple in Meherpur, located in the Khulna Division of Bangladesh, were vandalised and set on fire.

The widespread attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh are the most severe since 2021, when protests broke out across the country after Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit. Several Hindu temples were attacked in the violence.
