A 27-year-old Hindu man, Dipu Chandra Das, was brutally lynched in Bangladesh's Mymensingh, sparking widespread outrage and protests in several Indian cities. Bollywood actor Elvish Yadav has now joined the chorus of condemnation, calling the situation 'deeply alarming' and demanding sustained attention. Following in the footsteps of Janhvi Kapoor, who had earlier expressed her horror at the incident, Elvish Yadav took to X to share his thoughts. He emphasized that the situation requires more than just statements, but a serious and sustained response. He had previously raised concerns about the treatment of minorities in Bangladesh in 2021 and 2024, and is reiterating them now. The incident, which occurred on December 18, has left the world shaken. Videos of the lynching have flooded social media, showing the horrific violence that led to Dipu Chandra Das' death. According to reports, a workplace dispute may have triggered the attack. Protests have erupted in at least seven Indian cities, including New Delhi, Kolkata, Bhopal, Jammu, Agartala, Mumbai, and Hyderabad, with people demanding justice for the victim. The incident has also led to diplomatic tensions between India and Bangladesh, with both countries summoning each other's envoys. Elvish Yadav's comments highlight the urgent need for attention and action to prevent such incidents in the future. As he said, 'The state of minorities in Bangladesh is deeply alarming and cannot be ignored any longer.'
