Although i appreciate infinity foundations effort in bringing this up, I think the issue has been misrepresneted. I am a nepali and have seen and worked with bhutanese refugees in Nepal. Getting back to the point, the Bhutan government was against Ethnic Nepalis inhabiting their country which has an ethnic bhutanese majority. Both Nepalis belonging to or identifying themselves as hindus and those identifying themselves as buddhists were displaced from bhutan. So the issue was more about ethnicity rather than religion. Although hindus among them who were more distinctly identified by their cultures and festivals and appearance could have been targeted more. But the issue was mostly about ethnic identity. Also the atrocities mostly happend from the bhutanese government and regular ethnic bhutanese people weren't directly involved in it.

[@ashwaryp]

A few years back i had read about *Lhotshampas Expulsion* from Bhutan. I even visited Bhutan few months back. Although I am not sure but i think maybe, the issue might be more related to ethnicity rather than religion as most of the Hindus in Bhutan are of Nepali ethnicity (Lhotshampas). That's why after ethnic cleansing the refugees settled in Nepal rather than India and to reach Nepal they had to go through India. Still there are around 21-25% Hindus is Bhutan while remaining population is Buddhist. We should help our Hindu brothers and sisters who are in need but at the same time keep in mind the Chinese factor before taking any emotional decisions towards Bhutan as it has been a pro-India nation since independence and any radical decision would push them towards China just like Nepal which can have dire consequences on India security. Other than that we should read and learn our History and find pragmatic solutions. And the most important thing is to spread awareness and make the world hear about our issues and empathize with Hindus as well.

As far as I am aware, many Nepalese moved from Nepal and settled in Sikkim, Bhutan and North India.

In case of sikkim the nepali people outnumbered the sikkimese and overthrew the king resulting in sikkim becoming a state of India..... in case of Bhutan the bhutanese king being scared drove all the nepali immigrants away... similar in case of nagaland assam manipur etc.....

The interview given by these people are mostly false. I am a Hindu in Bhutan, come and see it's totally different than what they say. These people are simply seeking publicity. Actually the time was darkest period of Bhutan and it marked a stain in Bhutanese history. The time was without proper media and Transparency between Bhutanese people(Southern Bhutanese) and The Central Royal Government. In the name of protest Nepli ethnic people raised their voice along with thier weapons. They burnt schools, public properties, and forced every other innocent villagers to joined the movement. The majority of the people involved in the violence were from Outside of Bhutan, the people who were not from Bhutan but entered Bhutan during the turmoil and supported the movement. If there was no violence from the side of Nepali-speaking people, the problem could have been easily solved within. The issue is not to related to Hinduism at all. It's about the difference in culture and lack of transparency between the people and the leader: the intention of King for the change was not well understood by the Nepali-speaking people, and the voice of people manipulated when it reached to the leader. We cannot even say it as ethnic cleansing because majority of the Nepali-speaking Bhutanese still reside and shares the equal right and responsibilities as rest. Just that the people who couldn't digest the new ideology left the nation and there were some of the corrupt government officials who took the advantage of the situation and targeted the Nepali-speaking Bhutanese to move out of country. If anyone doesn't believe my statement the reality can be seen in present Bhutan.

[@nanjappa42]

However much we may venerate the Buddha and appreciate his teachings, we find that historically whenever his followers got the upper hand, they induced the rulers to embrace Buddhism and the converted rulers started persecuting the Hindus. This seems mainly to be the work of Buddhist clergy. This is what is happening in countries where the Buddhist clergy is strong, as in Sri Lanka and Myanmar, and now in Bhutan. Unfortunately, it is the Buddhists who introduced the practice of religious conversion, though strictly speaking the Buddhist dharma is also part of the larger Hindu dharma. By the way, the so called religious freedom in the US is also phoney, for there is deep seated antagonism towards Hinduism there.
