Vested Property- the main causes for the losing Hindu land of Bangladesh
Nearly two lakh Hindus have lost 22 lakh acres of their land and houses during the last six years, Said Prof. Abul Barkat, reknown economist and prof of the university of Dhaka. The market value of this land is Taka 2, 52,000 crores (about $156 million), which is more than half of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP).
This is a man-made problem contrary to the spirit of humanity and it is going on here in Bangladesh. When this types of minorities plight will establish to establish a civilised society? Politically powerful people grabbed most of the Hindu lands during the reign of Begum Khaleda Zia’s BNP-led four-party alliance between 2001 and 2006. Forty-five per cent of the land grabbers were affiliated with the BNP, 31 per cent with the Awami League, 8 per cent with Jamaat-e-Islami and six per cent with the Jatiya Party and other political organizations Said Prof Abul Barkat in his report.
