Outrageous Comment of Indian Army Chief regarding Bangladesh: Hasina Regime proved its Despicable Loyalty by Maintaining Absolute Silence

On February 22, 2018, Indian Chief of Army Staff General Bipin Rawat has claimed at a seminar that a planned influx of illegal migrants from Bangladesh into India's north-eastern region is underway as part of Pakistan’s “proxy war” against India, with support from China, according to a report by The Times of India (February 22, 2018). Even though the statement, which has been covered by all the major newspapers in both India and Bangladesh, has provoked huge reaction in political arena, but, with utter disgust, we observed that Hasina government has remained in complete silence, demonstrating its unbending loyalty to the archenemy of the Muslims and Bangladesh. Even the appalling statement of Rawat that Bangladesh is being used for proxy warfare of Pakistan, did not offend the professed “chetona” (spirit of liberation war) of the current regime that it keeps bragging about!

O Muslims of Bangladesh! This is clear beyond the shadow of a doubt that this ruling class will spare no effort to bring on us unending humiliation and disgrace at India’s behest. India, no matter how big a bully in this block, did not possess an iota of courage to mess around with the incredibly brave Bangladesh Army even a few years back. This land of shirk had a hard time to forget their nightmarish experience of defeat by our paramilitary force Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) in Padua and Rowmari across the border in 2001. But alas, the subservience of the Hasina regime towards India has done more damage to this nation than India could have ever imagined by herself. This regime has been paving all the ways possible for India to have Bangladesh under her dominance from practically every corner. Since the ascension to power in 2009, this regime’s key aim was to destroy the morale of our army which they tried to achieve by “putting a dagger” in our military’s heart through orchestrating the Pilkhana Massacre. There was a time, not very long ago, when Indian army was considered the main external enemy for the trainings and exercises of our military force. And now, the Hasina regime has ensured that India is not portrayed as a threat anymore in our military exercises, rather our armed force is now compelled by this spiteful regime to hold joint annual exercise like “sampriti” with the killers of their brothers. Hence, only fanciful minds can wish for a strong protest from this subservient regime against such offensive statement of the mushrik general. So come forward, O Muslims! Join and support Hizb ut Tahrir in its struggle to bring back the glorious Khilafah (Caliphate) that will crush the backbone of all the local agents of the Western colonialists and their regional allies and will restore the forgotten honor of this Ummah.

O sincere officers of Bangladesh Army! This is high time you realized that obeying this subservient regime of Western imperialist and mushrik is the cause of destruction and loss of honor and dignity, and that waving the banner of Jihad under the second righteous Khilafah (Caliphate) is the only way to glory, victory and strength. So respond to the sincere call of Hizb ut Tahrir and rush forward to give the material support (Nusrah) to the party to reestablish the mighty Khilafah on the method of the Prophethood.

﴿بَلْ اللَّهُ مَوْلاَكُمْ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ النَّاصِرِينَ * يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنْ تُطِيعُوا الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يَرُدُّوكُمْ عَلَى أَعْقَابِكُمْ فَتَنْقَلِبُوا خَاسِرِينَ﴾

“O you who believe! If you obey those who disbelieve, they will send you back on your heels, and you will turn back as losers. Nay, Allah is your Mawlaa (Patron, Lord, Helper, Protector), and He is the Best of helpers” [Al ‘Imraan: 149-150].
