Recognizing the Bangladesh Genocide of 1971 and protection of religious minorities in Bangladesh.

This resolution formally recognizes the 1971 atrocities in East Pakistan as genocide and calls on the U.S. President to officially label the events as crimes against humanity and war crimes. It specifically highlights the targeted persecution of Hindu religious minorities, who were systematically killed, raped, and expelled by Pakistani military forces and allied Islamist groups. The bill does not impose new laws or sanctions but serves as a congressional statement to preserve historical memory and condemn the documented violence against civilians. It also affirms that entire ethnic or religious groups are not responsible for the actions of their individual members.
