Shashi Tharoor Condemns Vandalism of 1971 Surrender Statue in Mujibnagar, Bangladesh
Aug 12, 2024, 05:06 AM
Recent reports from Bangladesh indicate that a statue commemorating the 1971 surrender of the Pakistan Army was vandalized at the Shaheed Memorial Complex in Mujibnagar. The incident has sparked condemnation from Indian politician Shashi Tharoor, who highlighted the destruction as part of a series of attacks on Indian cultural sites, temples, and Hindu homes in the region. Tharoor has urged the interim government of Bangladesh to take action to restore law and order. The vandalism is seen as an attempt to erase the historical significance of the 1971 Liberation War, which led to the creation of Bangladesh from what was formerly East Pakistan.
