You are the change makers who toppled a fascist regime and set the country on course to create a NEW BANGLADESH.

Not only we salute you, the whole world is now saluting you for your sacrifices and your contributions. The world, through THE ECONOMIST, now recognizes Bangladesh as the winner of The Country of the Year 2024 Award.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Happy New Year!

Google Search prioritises ultranationalist outlets more prominently, thereby fueling a global disinformation campaign amid heightened diplomatic tensions.

According to a report published by Techglobal Institute, for instance the search engine giant populates its search with content from Indian media over Bangladeshi media – even when the actual issue in question has taken place in Bangladesh.
In doing so, it casts aside local, original journalism on a story rooted in Bangladesh in favour of an avalanche of divisive coverage from neighbouring India, according to a report published by Techglobal Institute.

www.newagebd.netEnforced Disappearance in Bangladesh: Commission finds Indian involvementThe Commission of Inquiry on Enforced Disappearance has found prima facie evidence of the involvement of Indian authorities in the system of enforced disappearance in Bangladesh.

In recent months, Indian media outlets have embarked on an aggressive misinformation campaign aimed at discrediting the interim government in Bangladesh, which was set up following the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s regime on August 5. The narratives being propagated are not only misleading but also reflect the erosion of journalistic integrity in favor of political loyalty, a transformation that has turned much of the Indian media into a “Godi” media or pliant press under Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The Diplomat · Indian Media’s Misinformation Campaign on BangladeshBy Rushad Faridi

This video is from August, where people were giving "nagin dance" punishment to a caught thief.

However, Hindutva propagandist added sad background music to the video and is falsely sharing it to show religious hate crime against Hindus in Bangladesh. This is completely false, the dance punishment has nothing to do with religion.

Continued thread

As soon as the event occurred, Indian media outlets, journalists, religious and political leaders started spreading misinformation about the incident.

They even published an article on Reuters.

The whole incident appears to be pre-planned to create communal riots in Bangladesh.

A trainee lawyer was killed and 25 others injured during a clash between followers of former ISKCON leader Chinmoy Krishna Das Brahmachari and law enforcement agencies on the Chattogram court premises on Tuesday over sending Chinmoy to jail in a sedition case.
Saiful Islam Alif, 35, son of Jamal Uddin of Lohagara upazila in Chattogram, was taken to Chattogram Medical College Hospital where the duty doctor declared him dead. 

The hospital’s duty doctor Nibedita Ghosh said that the lawyer was stabbed in his neck and head indiscriminately.
Chattogram Metropolitan Police additional deputy commissioner for media Kazi Md Tarek Aziz said that the trainee lawyer was critically injured in the clash on the Chattogram court premises at Laldighi.

It is deeply unfortunate that media outlets, such as @Reuters, are perpetuating narratives that align with Indian propaganda. Contrary to claims by Indian media, the lawyer was not defending Chinmoy Krishna Das. In reality, the lawyer was attacked by followers of Chinmoy Das and later succumbed to the injuries. This misinformation needs to be addressed and corrected.

Boosts are appreciated 🚀

In the first week of November, joint forces intervened to rescue a Muslim man from a Hindu mob at Hazari Goli, Chattogram. The mob had attacked the Muslim man's shop, and there was a serious risk of mob lynching. When the joint forces arrived to protect him, the mob retaliated by hurling stones and acid at them. To control the situation, the joint forces had to use baton charges and later conducted raids to arrest the attackers. The incident was not communal in nature, but Hindus and Hindutvadis falsely portrayed the raids as a communal attack. (Also, no one was killed, but they spread false propaganda of hindu deaths) Ironically, these same individuals are now celebrating police killings of Indian minorities.
