Didn't our crowd chant Jai Shree Ram at Mohammed Shami?

 

kabhi khud ke girebaan mein bhi jhaank liya kijiye. 

Bhai, JSR like Allahu Akbar is fine. In fact was the norm in Sharjah matches. Our lot would respond with Ganpati Bappa Morya back then. These don't have negative connotations.

Always was this way, we are insulated from what is happening there because of the language barrier. Only the gen which lived during Tikka Khan and Mujiburs time has some gratitude towards India. 

 

Bangladesh's army has had more coups than Pakistan's btw, if you read some of the stories you will feel for one hot minute that the Paxtanis are actually saner by comparison. lol.

Bengal had more to do with partition, whether it be founding of Muslim League or the massacres of 1946-47. Then comes Bihar, UP, Delhi, in that order. Pakjab actually resisted Muslim League till partition became inevitable.

Cancel India's tour to BD in upcoming WTC cycle. Heck we are scheduled to play T20I and ODI series before that, I think this year. Safety is a major concern, hate against Indians/Hindus/Chakmas is at boiling point in BD even among their educated lot, tourists and businessmen from Kolkata are being randomly attacked on a daily basis in Dhaka. Cricketers will be prime targets for those radicals.

A lot of political upheaval might take place by the end of the year in Bang itself. Don't expect Yunus at least to last very long.

They got united Bengal partitioned in early 1900s well before a separate nation was even a thing.

Wasn't that particular "partition of Bengal" an idea of that Curzon?

It was a bit of both, they didn't come up with it ex nihilo and there was a Wahabi undercurrent in Eastern Bengal too. It also obviously had other benefits.

That he was aware of these foreseeable consequences and was still keen on propping up a counterweight to Congress-led ‘nationalism’ is evident from his letter dated 17 February 1904 to Secretary of State for India John Brodrick, which reveals that the so-called administrative reasons which were offered as justification for the proposed partition were not entirely true:61

The Bengalis, who like to think of themselves a nation, and who dream of a future when the English will have been turned out and a Bengali Babu will be installed in Government House, Calcutta, of course bitterly resent any disruption that will be likely to interfere with the realisation of this dream. If we are weak enough to yield to their clamour now, we shall not be able to dismember or reduce Bengal again; and you will be cementing and solidifying, on the eastern flanks of India, a force already formidable and certain to be a source of increasing trouble in future.

 

This letter was written on the eve of his address to a predominantly Muslim audience on 18 February 1904 in Dacca as part of the tour he undertook62 to assess public reaction to the proposed  partition.63  In  his  address,  he  expressly  wooed  the

 

Muslims of Eastern Bengal and Assam by harkening back to the golden age of Muslim glory in Bharat as follows:64

Let me put before you for a moment another aspect of the case. Much use has been made in this controversy of history, and of all that it is supposed to teach. I also in a small way am a student of history: and if it has taught me anything of these parts, the lesson has been that under the present system of administration, Dacca, which was once the capital of Bengal, has steadily declined in numbers and influence, and that not until the jute trade was introduced some thirty years ago did it begin to revive. In 1800 Dacca was a city of 200,000 people. In 1870 it had sunk to 69,000. Since then it has risen, owing to the circumstances that I have mentioned, to 90,000 in the last census; but whereas the increase was 10,000 between 1870 and 1880, it has only been 11,000 in the ensuing 20 years. Will anyone here pretend that, even after this advance, Dacca is anything but a shadow of its former self? Is it not notorious that for years it has been lamenting its downfall, as compared with the past?

 

When then a proposal is put forward which would make Dacca the centre, and possibly the capital, of a new and self-sufficing administration, which must give to the people of these districts, by reason of their numerical strength and their superior culture, the preponderating voice in the province so created, which would invest the Mahomedans in Eastern Bengal with a unity which they have not enjoyed since the days of the old Musulman Viceroys and Kings, which must develop local interests and trade to a degree that is impossible so long as you remain, to use your own words, the

appanage of another administration, and which would go far to revive the traditions which the historical students assure us once attached to the Kingdom of Eastern Bengalcan it be that the people of these districts are to be advised by their leaders to sacrifice all these great


and incontestable advantages, from fear of being tied on to the tail of the humble and backward Assam?

Well agree that Jai Shree Ram and Allahu Akbar chants are an indirect persecutions, but are persecutions nevertheless, our lots or even Greenbros for that matter are a little sophisticated, but Bangladeshi's are a different level of 3rd grades. So anything coming from that lot should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Call me a genocidal maniac but I won't think twice nuking Kanglus in the event of a war.

Yep, this country is going the pakistan way and very soon.

 

Just hope it doesn't become a complete hib of terrorism and anti social elements who then keep attacking india without any purpose of their own

 

Pity as for a short while the country looked like it was turning a corner, bit as usual religious extremism will consume another country.

Isn't their economy dependent on a single industry, textiles contributing more than 80% of exports. Any instability will cause ripple effects on an economy that has no diversification, specially the fact they do not produce any raw material, and import it from India and China being largest importers, and most of their competitiveness comes from cheap labor which always has a ceiling, and it is not something like semiconductor industry in Taiwan which is not only capital intensive but also has high technological barriers, textile manufacturing can be easily outsourced to other countries from which even India is benefiting.

don’t think that ever happened.

It was happening at the oval in the WTC final. I was in the ground and there was a group near me who were shouting it at both Siraj and shami whenever they would move near the boundary. Indian crowds have a long history of abuse towards foreign black players as well. It is usually the language barrier that prevents it from being more widely picked up

Racial or stereotypical remarks are very common in sports. Happens in all countries without exception. Siraj (and many Indians) was abused by the Australian crowd too. 

 

But what they did to Liton Das wasn't just mere racial remarks but relentless targeted harrasment of a percecuted minority. Hindus in BD have suffered numerous brutal one-way riots. Liton's house was burnt just recently, he faces real danger to his life. 

 

Violence and abuse against Hindus is extremely normalised in BD, even among their educated class. That's not the case in India even remotely. You cannot openly abuse minorities in India and get away with it. #SaarTanSeJuda 

 

However you can call Hinduism "Dengue", "Malaria" and call for "Eradication of Hindus" in India and then easily get away with it...

AhA is not the same as JSR. Nobody has blown themselves up chanting AhA!
