The Bangladesh Government has been gracious enough to accept Rohingya who fled from Myanmar due to persecutions / genocide done by the military but as it is the Bangladesh is neither a signatory to the 1951 Refugee Convention not its 1967 Protocol to the refugee Convention. Technically speaking, they don’t have to step up but they did accept the many numbers of Rohingya who came seeking for a refuge on humanitarian grounds. For that I am grateful to the government of Bangladesh however, taking in the refugees should not stop there. I am pleading to the authorities to please ensure that the human rights of these refugees be protected. They must not be forced to return to Myanmar without any safety guaranteed to them first and as we are all human beings let us treat our less fortunate brethrens humanely too. #Rohingya #refugees #EndStatelessness ** Angela V.
