A commentary published on June 13, 2026, by retired Major Rokon Uddin argues that the Hindutva ideology promoted by India’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its ideological parent, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), poses a direct threat to Bangladesh. The article traces the roots of Hindutva to Vinayak Damodar Savarkar’s 1923 work and the founding of the RSS in 1925, describing its vision of a unified ‘Akhand Bharat’ encompassing India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and other South Asian countries. It claims that this vision has moved from ideological aspiration to state policy under BJP rule since 2014.
The author highlights incidents such as the Gujarat riots, the demolition of the Babri Mosque, and the Citizenship Amendment Act as evidence of a systematic effort to marginalize Muslims in India. He argues that BJP leaders’ rhetoric toward Bangladesh, including labeling migrants as threats, reflects a broader strategy of regional dominance. The piece asserts that India’s political and intelligence influence in Bangladesh has undermined its sovereignty.
The article concludes that Bangladesh must strengthen its defense, economy, and national unity to resist external dominance and preserve its independence.
