Hindus are facing severe human rights violations all over the world. These violations occur in various forms like religious persecution, religious cleansing, targeted riots, murder, sexual violence, physical assaults, hate crimes, hate speech, legal & racial discrimination, forced conversion, cultural assaults etc. Many Hindus remain ignorant about these violations as they are often sidelined in mainstream media, thus allowing concerned governments to get away with an apathetic response.
HinduPost is attempting to remedy the situation by building a database of human rights violation of Hindus across the world. We will be tracking crimes and human rights violations driven by anti-Hindu sentiment and/or perpetrated by non-Hindus. The project is huge, and envisioned as a community driven effort. We need the active participation of informed Hindus around the world to submit any news of such violations through this form. Or send us your report at our email id [email protected]

| Noakhali Massacre : how systematic killing of Hindus was unleashed to force partition in East India | Genocide | 1946-10-10 | Bangladesh | Noakhali | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noakhali_riots https://byjus.com/free-ias-prep/this-day-in-history-oct10/ | Persecution of Hindus | Noakhali | In Noakhali, which was not much affected during the Calcutta killings, the violence started on 10 October mainly in Noakhali District – Ramganj, Raipur, Begumganj, Chhagalnaiya, Lakshmipur and Sandwip. Tipperah District – Chandpur, Faridganj, Hajiganj, Chauddagram and Laksham. The perpetrators were Muslim National Guards and private military. They targeted Bengali Hindus. Unfortunately, the Muslim League government of Bengal, headed by Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy did not actively check the rioters. Some believe this was to send the message that the partition of the country was warranted. This was in line with the communal propaganda by the League leaders who had asked its supporters to ‘take Pakistan by force if needed’. Even though the violence started on the 10th, enforcers were sent to the affected areas only on the 14th. An earlier intervention from the government might have prevented thousands of deaths. It is estimated that about 5000 Hindus were killed during these riots. Thousands were forcibly converted and many women were raped. aniketProperty was ransacked and houses and shops looted and burned. Temples were desecrated. Lalmohan Sen, a revolutionary leader who had participated in the Chittagong Armoury Raid and had been imprisoned for 16 years by the British, was killed by a mob during the riots. |

Chief secretary O P Yadav said the incident at Kalaban took place at 3 a.m. The same group of militants was believed to have struck at believed to be mostly labourers. Kalaban is about 30 km from the state's border with Jammu and Kashmir and the nearest road head from the village is 15 km away. Official reports said the militants, who are suspected to have crossed over from Doda district of Jammu and Kashmir, first struck at a near Kalaban village where they fired with automatic weapons at labourers who were sleeping. Twenty-six of them were killed. The militants are then believed to have gone to Shatrundi where too some labourers had camped for the night. After killing nine persons, they escaped under the cover of darkness. Unconfirmed reports said the militants first tied all the labourers in Kalaban to trees before killing them. The district authorities came to know of the incident six hours after the incident when two of the injured, Naseerudin and Dhyan Singh, managed to reach the Mansa police station after undertaking a trek of 8 km. By that time, the militants might have crossed over to Doda. The militants are suspected to have targeted the labourers to disrupt the work on the Bairagarh-Shatrundi link road which would ultimately make the remote areas of Chamba accessible. The militants are believed to take refuge in these remote areas during summers when the snow melts and also when security forces mount pressure on them in the neighboring state. Besides, the inhospitable terrain and the thick forest cover provide a perfect hideout for the militants. Chief minister Prem Kumar Dhumal, who was in to the two villages. He is reported to be in touch with Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Farooq Abdullah and suggested a joint operation to nab the militants. A unit of the Rashtriya Rifles, camping at Bhaderwah in the Doda region of Jammu and Kashmir, was being rushed to assist the Himachal Pradesh police. President K R Narayanan and Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee condemned the killings by militants in Chamba district. In a statement, the President said: "the hope the authorities would take all possible steps to stop this cold-blooded carnage and apprehend the culprits to ensure communal harmony." Condemning the incident as outrageous, the Prime Minister called upon the authorities to take sternest measures to deal with such elements who were out to disturb peace and harmony. It may be recalled that militants had recently killed four persons from Himachal Pradesh who had gone to the neighboring Doda district to collect herbs. Their bodies were seen by a Gujjar who reported the matter to the police. Only last week, the chief minister had informed the Himachal assembly that he had asked Union home minister L K Advani and Mr Abdullah states against the militants with the help of Central forces. Mr Dhumal had said that when snow melted, people living in the higher areas of Chamba moved to the plains in search of work. Their empty houses were used by the militants from Jammu and Kashmir as hideouts. Red alert has been sounded in six districts of Jammu and Kashmir - Doda, Rajouri, Poonch, Udhampur, Kathua and Jammu following the massacres, inspector-general of police of Jammu zone Kuldeep Khuda said. |

| ‘BNP, Jamaat’ behind Maloparha attack on Hindus | Persecution of Hindus | 2014-01-15 | Bangladesh | Maloparha | https://bdnews24.com/bangladesh/2014/01/15/bnp-jamaat-behind-maloparha-attack-on-hindus | Maloparha | Hindus are attacked after every election whether they vote or not, a community veteran has lamented. “It has almost become a norm to attack the Hindus in Bangladesh after the general elections every five years,” said 96-year-old Adhir Pal, who lives near Jessore’s Maloparha, the site of recent communal attacks. “They are attacked irrespective of whether they cast their vote or not. We vote for the Awami League but it can’t save us from such attacks,” Pal added. He had given shelter to several Hindu families targeted in the post-poll aggression. The nonagenarian was shocked by the brutality of one section on another, though both were people of the same country. Residents of Maloparha are spending their days in fear. When approached, they talked about the attacks, graphically describing how they had lost everything, but stopped short of naming their tormentors. Bikash Biswas, like others in the community, was silent when asked who the attackers were. His house had been vandalised and ransacked. His wife Ujjala Biswas was quick to answer on his behalf. “What would our husbands do [in the event of an attack]? They would rather protect the children than remember the faces of the attackers,” she said in apparent disgust. “The attackers were masked,” she revealed. | |

The girl, who is a yoga instructor, was taken to a local police station along with her parents for interrogation when the Maharashtra police came quickly to Delhi for arresting her three days back. But Maharashtra police arrived without proper documentation and hence the girl was not sent with them to Nagpur. Her family has now hired an advocate and is preparing to fight the multiple cases filed on her under Hate Speech & use of Information Technology laws. She has been asked to appear in the Nagpur Court on 22nd February, 2017 by the Maharashtra police. The girl has also posted an apology for her initial post. | |

In early 2015, Hindu Samhati extended assistance to Muslim girls who wanted to marry their Hindu boyfriends after undergoing Ghar Wapsi. Hindu Samhati & its founder Tapan Ghosh have been giving proper safety to such families. In middle 2015, Hindu Samhati was able to rescue Tuktuki Mandal, a minor Hindu girl, from Muslim abductors who were politically well-connected. This Muslim girl from Munshidanga village of Domjur thana under Howrah district in West Bengal went to meet her boyfriend Saddam on 3rd May of this year. She left home in the morning and reached Diamond Harbour at noon. Then she spent the entire day with her boyfriend along the Diamond Harbour riverside, but in the evening Saddam went away leaving the girl alone. Some sexual predators spotted the lone girl and tried to drag her away, but they were foiled by Sourav Mondal. Later, the girl decided not to return home and soon after, the two (Hindu boy & Muslim girl) tied the knot. This news had been carried out by Assam-West Bengal based Bengali daily newspaper Dainik Jugasankha’s (Dainik Yugashankha) local edition as well as The Times Group’s Bengali daily newspaper Ei Samay Sangbadpatra (Ei Samay Sambadpatra) published from Kolkata. | |

He said they have been manufacturing bricks on the rented land and for past some time they have some dispute with the landlords. On Friday night, Saddam Khan and Hayaat Khan arrived there and asked Bheel to accompany them for some agricultural work.

| Multan Bar Association passes resolution to prevent non-Muslims(read Hindus) from partaking in elections of bar council | Legal or Institutionalsed Discrimination | 2020-01-10 | Pakistan | Multan | https://swarajyamag.com/insta/pakistan-multan-bar-association-passes-resolution-to-prevent-non-muslims-from-contesting-elections | Multan | In yet another act of stifling Hindu minorities from being equal citizen of Pakistan, the Multan Bar Association has passed a resolution to prevent non-Muslims(read Hindus) from partaking in elections of bar council. Pakistan’s constitution calls the country an Islamic country, and persons from Hindu, Christian and other non-Muslim groups are not allowed to becomes the president or the prime minister of the country. The Islamic republic is also infamous for the persecution of non-Muslim minorities. Recently, stones were pelted and hateful sloganeering carried out outside the Nankana Sahib, a Sikh religious place. While the abduction of Hindu girls and murders of Hindu leaders are carried out with impunity in Pakistan, it will be perilous if Hindu community is deprived of even legal representation and recourse. In such case, CAA is much needed for legally persecuted Hindus of Pakistan. | |

In a dastardly attack on unarmed Sikh worshipper in their holy place, one of very few surviving in Islamic country of Afghanistan, ISIL Gunmen and suicide bombers killed at least 25 worshippers, including women and children, and injured many others in early morning. Up to 200 people were trapped inside the temple when the attack began at about 7am, interrupting worship that had started an hour earlier. The attackers reportedly threw grenades, and after bursting into the complex, started shooting indiscriminately. “The attackers arrived on the stairs and started killing the women. My nephew shouted and said to me ‘Uncle, please go downstairs’, and when I tried to go downstairs, they shot my nephew in the head,” said Harander Singh, who lost several other relatives including his wife, father and daughter.

When thousands of poor people had gathered at Rehrri Ghoth in Karachi to receive food supplies and daily essentials, Hindus were told to go back since the rations were meant only for Muslims. Sindh government had issued an order to distribute ration during lockdown through local NGOs and administration to daily wage workers and laborers. Hindus were told that they were not eligible for having food supplies since it was only meant for Muslims, said activists. The reason for this is that Zakat, Islamic alms giving (one of Islam’s five pillars), is reserved for Muslims. This form of monstrous discrimination shows the deep seated hatred and contempt that has been cultivated through Islamic indoctrination among the Pakistani Muslims against the Hindus. | |

| 80 year old priest murdered in burglary | Temple/Murti Desecration OR Attack on Priest/Sadhu | 2020-04-16 | Bharat | Bihar | https://www.bhaskar.com/local/bihar/patna/sisvan/news/mahavir-temple-priest-murdered-for-protesting-against-theft-in-siswan-theft-of-11-idols-127182213.html | Murder | Mehndar Hanumangarhi, Siswan, Siwan | One more incident of violence against temple priest has come to fore while thieves decamped with 11 idols from the temple. 80 year old priest Janak Das did not survive the assault with knife & blunt objects. According to report, the dead body of the priest was discovered at rooftop of temple and it is likely that he woke up when thieves were stealing the valuables and when he tried to apprehend them, they ruthlessly attacked him with knives, sticks and crushed his head with stone. The villagers are furious over the brutal crime and demanded swift action in this matter. The killings of temple priests is not something new in India. In august 2018, 2 priests were brutally killed by members of "chhah maar" gang in Karnal. These 'all Muslim' gangs specialise in targetting Hindu temples. Their modus operandi is very low profile. They dont carry weapons on them but pickup sticks and stones from crime site and brutally assault the priests or anyone present there. They leave neither witness nor evidence and simply melt away in the crowd in morning. In another case in 2015, when police arrested chhah maar gang members Usman, Sakir & Aamir, it was disclosed by gang members that a 'chhah maar' gang member can get engaged only after killing 3 people while he can get married only after killing 6 people. They seem to enjoy violence in commission of crime. Even though, it is yet to be confirmed that Siwan incident was carried out by chhahmaar gang, the modus operandi points its finger towards similar gang. |

This time the attack happened in Hoshiarpur Punjab. Swami Pushpendra was resting in his ashram when around at 10 pm, two unknown miscreants jumped inside the ashram over the walls and attacked him. Swamiji was taken to a nearby hospital, by a resident Sanjeeb Talwad , where he revealed that the attackers had tied his hands and legs and attacked him. He suffered injuries. He also revealed that the attackers stole away 50,000 rs in cash and some other items from the ashram. Police has registered complaints under IPC 394/34 in this case and is investigating the matter.

In a similar incident of attack on temple priest that took place in this same week in Siwan, Bihar ,miscreants entered the temple complex in a similar fashion, attacked the priest and stole away valuable items. The priest couldn't survive the assault. It is worth pointing out that this modus operandi of attacks on Hindu priests is similar to that of "chhahmaar gang". |
