The Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC) are not just India’s “internal problem” any more, and Bangladesh authorities have to take a clean stance concerning them, speakers at a discussion said yesterday. The developing “disaster” in India could badly have an effect on Bangladesh just like the Rohingya problem of Myanmar did. Considering this, Bangladesh should take precautionary measures, they stated on the roundtable at Dhaka Reporter’s Unity.

Ganosamhati Andolon, a left-leaning political party, organised the occasion titled “CAA and NRC in India: Impact on South Asia and what Bangladesh can do”. “[Bangladesh] government has been saying it [CAA and NRC] is India’s inner problem; that is objectionable. It is a worldwide problem,” Dhaka University Professor Emeritus Serajul Islam Choudhury stated. “If the neighbour’s house catches fire, ours will too at a few point,” he added. Explaining the strike on the multi-cultural character of Indian subcontinent through the partition in 1947 under British rule, he stated, “India is becoming a prison for communities.” He also said, “India is going via an ‘extreme economic crisis’ and the [Indian] authorities is attempting to divert people’s interest from it.”

Terming Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi “second Hitler”, Gonoshasthaya Kendra founder Dr Zafrullah Chowdhury predicted that the NRC difficulty ought to spark the 0.33 world war. “Impact of the cutting-edge Indian government’s religious bigotry is already glaring in cities throughout the country. The genuflecting coverage of Bangladesh authorities will best courage them,” he claimed. Bangladesh in already beneath terrible stress over “12 lakh Rohingyas”, he said. “We won’t be able to tackle a disaster centring Indian refugees,” Dr Zafrullah added. He counseled arranging a march towards the Indian High Commission in Dhaka and rejecting Indian products, as a part of a stance in opposition to India’s NRC. Prof Sayeed Ferdous of Jahangirnagar University supplied a concept observe at the CAA and NRC disaster wherein he said the issue may be catastrophic for India in the end in addition to a large blow for Bangladesh. Due to Bangladesh authorities’s “subjugated attitude” towards India, declaration of Ducsu VP Nur makes them uncomfortable and he is being attacked, Prof Sayeed said, criticising the remarks of Awami League leader Tofael Ahmed on Nur’s activity.
