The Rohingyas are a group of minority people, especially in a large number of Muslim<\/a>s, who were once considered a citizen of the state of Myanmar. These immigrants are an ethnic group, who predominantly live in the Western Myanmar province of Rakhine<\/a>. They speak a particular form of a Bengali,<\/em><\/strong> as they are opposed to speaking their Burmese language. Myanmar had denied their citizenship<\/span> as they believed that these people have migrated to their land during the Colonial rule<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These Rohingya\u2019s have been said to belong to the South East Asian countries<\/a> and Indian sub-continent parts, for generations. Rohingya\u2019s were not allowed to leave their country with government permission. The western coastal belt of Rakhine<\/span> is stated as the poorest in the country due to lack of basic services<\/em>. Due to ongoing violence and persecution<\/a>, hundreds of thousands of Rohingya have fled to neighboring countries either by land or boat over the course of many decades.<\/p>\n

From where these Rohingya came from?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Myanmar had denied their citizenship since 1982 and made them stateless. The ARNO (Arkan Rohingya )<\/a>\u00a0 said that \u201cRohingyas have been living in Arakan from time immemorial. They are a people with distinct culture and civilization of their own\u201d. During the British rule<\/a>, there was a significant amount of migration of laborers was done from Myanmar, to what is now known as India and Bangladesh.<\/p>\n

What happened in the violence of 2012 between Buddhists and Muslims<\/strong><\/h3>\n

There were communal tensions<\/a> held between Rakhine Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims, leading death of hundreds of people. The storyline was a rape of a young Buddhist woman which give a spark to the deadly events, since then. The violent crashes number got increasing pertaining to many Rohingya\u2019s being butchered, maltreated and killed. The government had made the scenario of state emergency and midnight curfews<\/em><\/strong>, but it leads to no fruitful result in the end.<\/p>\n

What About Rohingya Crisis in August-2017<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Rohingya \u2013 stateless minority group of Muslim people have persecution of many years<\/strong> <\/em>from their so-called native land Myanmar. Their deep-rooted hatred for Rakhine Buddhists had to lead to deadly communal violence in the past<\/a>. This year on August 25, Rohingya attacked more than 30 police posts<\/span>, with knives and handmade bombs. It leads to the death of 12 members of the security forces, which led to term them as \u2018security threat\u2019. And since then Rohingya\u2019s had fled to Bangladesh in a large number.<\/p>\n

Human Rights Watch<\/a> say most damages occurred in Maungdaw Township, between 25 August and 25 September – with many villages destroyed after 5 September, when Myanmar’s de facto leader, Aung San Suu Kyi, said security force operations had ended.<\/p>\n

What India has to say for \u2013 Rohingya<\/strong><\/h5>\n

As per the ministry of Home Affairs, it is said to have nearly 40,000 Rohingya\u2019s are living in India. Recently, Union minister of state for home affairs Kiren Rijiju informed the Lok Sabha<\/span> that the accurate number of illegal immigrants is yet not available. He also added that India has a record of accepting many such refugees, of which none of them has been deported yet. India has been internationally acclaimed for dealing with and providing protection to such refugees.<\/p>\n

India has provided them opportunities<\/strong><\/em> but because of the limited resources, it needs to be more serious with security challenges perspective<\/span>. We found many Bangladeshi women working as maids and men as rickshaw pullers in Northern Central region of India.<\/p>\n

The UN and HRW<\/a> have their opinions on Rohingyas \u2013 ones who have faced decades of discrimination and repression<\/span> under successive Burmese governments. Their tolerance towards humanitarian crisis has to be dealt with strict protocols, providing them with food, shelter, and water.<\/p>\n

The Right to Humanity<\/a> is inherent to every human being without being any sort of discrimination. Losing morality decreases being human, let\u2019s stop oneself from this.<\/p>\n
