Former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy ne Bangladesh mein Hindus ke khilaf targeted violence ki ninda ki hai aur wahan ke “victimhood-laced quota systems” par sawal uthaya hai.
**Short mein:**
Vivek Ramaswamy ne kaha ki “bloodshed” hamesha “victimhood” ka ant hota hai. Unhone bola ki 1971 mein rape aur violence ko theek karne ke liye banaye gaye quota system ne 2024 mein aur zyada aise incidents ko janam diya hai.
Ramaswamy ne January mein US presidential race chhod diya tha aur Donald Trump ko endorse kiya tha.
Vivek Ramaswamy ne Bangladesh mein Hindus ke khilaf targeted violence ki ninda ki aur wahan ke “victimhood-laced quota systems” par sawal uthaya. Ek lambi post mein, unhone quota protests ke bare mein bataya aur kaha ki grievances aur victimhood hamesha bloodshed tak pahunchti hai.
Unhone tweet kiya, “Bangladesh mein Hindus ke khilaf targeted violence galat hai, chinta ka vishay hai, aur yeh victimhood-laced quota systems ke liye ek cautionary tale hai.”
“Bangladesh ne 1971 mein apni independence ke liye ek khoon-kharaba yudh ladiya. Hazaaron Bangladeshi civilians ko rape aur murder kiya gaya. Yeh ek tragedy thi, aur iska gham sahi tha,” Ramaswamy ke tweet mein likha.
Quota systems ke bare mein, jo June mein Bangladesh bhar mein protests ka karan bana, Republican ne kaha ki jab yeh “disaster” sabit hua aur Sheikh Hasina-led government ne 2018 mein isse mostly khatam kar diya, tab bhi “victim-patrons ne wapas ladai ki aur quota system is saal phir se lagoo ho gaya.”
“Jab chaos shuru hota hai, to ise rokna mushkil hota hai. Radicals ab Hindu minorities ko target kar rahe hain. 1971 ke rape aur violence ko theek karne ke liye banaye gaye quota system ne 2024 mein aur rape aur violence ko janam diya hai. Bloodshed grievance aur victimhood ka ant hai,” unhone tweet kiya.
Vivek Ramaswamy ne tweet ko US ke reference ke saath khatam kiya, kehkar ki Bangladesh crisis ko dekhte hue, yeh sochna mushkil hai ki Americans kya “lessons” seekh sakte hain.
“Bangladesh ko dekhte hue, yeh sochna mushkil hai ki hum yahaan ghar par kya seekh sakte hain,” post mein likha.
Bangladesh mein bade protests jo 500 se zyada logon ki maut ka sabab bane, quota system ke khilaf demonstrations ke roop mein shuru hue the. Yeh protests baad mein anti-government ban gaye aur logon ne Sheikh Hasina ki resignation ki maang ki. Sheikh Hasina ne 5 August ko resignation diya aur desh chhod diya. Iske baad ke unrest mein, Bangladesh ke minorities, khaaskar Hindus, severe violence ka samna kar rahe hain. Mandir jalaye gaye hain, Hindus ke businesses aur houses ko loot liya gaya hai, aur logon ko lynch kiya gaya hai. In incidents ke chalte, kai Hindus India ke border par refuge lene ki koshish kar rahe hain. Nobel Peace laureate Muhammad Yunus, jo interim government ke chief adviser bane hain, ne minorities ko protect karne ki appeal ki aur attacks ki ninda ki hai.
**BANGLADESH QUOTA SYSTEM**
Bangladesh quota system 1972 mein introduce kiya gaya tha, jisme 1971 ke Bangladesh Liberation War ke freedom fighters ke parivar ke logon ke liye jobs reserve ki gayi thi. 2018 mein, jab 56 percent government jobs various quotas ke under reserved thi, to Sheikh Hasina-led government ne zyadatar quotas ko khatam kar diya, students ke protests ke baad. Quotas ko freedom fighters’ families, women aur underdeveloped districts ke logon ke liye 30 percent tak reduce kiya gaya.
Protests June mein phir se shuru hue jab High Court ne quota system ko reinstate kar diya, 2018 ke decision ko overturn karte hue. Baad mein, Supreme Court ne most quotas ko khatam kar diya aur 93 percent government jobs ko merit ke candidates ke liye open kar diya.
