The number of Hindus in Bangladesh has been declining since the partition. The main reason for this is the communal oppression, despite that, something else is written in the history of Bangladesh. For a long time, the local Hindu kings and Zamindars were the social patrons of the East Bengal region. But over time, those Hindu kings and Zamindars have been established as oppressors in the conventional history of Bangladesh and the victory story of Bakhtiyar Khilji has been composed as bravery. As a result, the social reforming consciousness of Hindu kings and Zamindars has been completely suppressed. On the other hand, the majority of people of the East Bengal have done land reform under oppression, this narrative is very much popular in Bangladesh.
Meanwhile, the history of the Hindus of Bangladesh says something else. At the same time, the witnesses of time, various establishments, had been silently clinging to the truth for a long time. Looking at the names of the old educational institutions in the East Bengal region i.e. Bangladesh, it is clear that the fictions of oppression of Hindu kings and Zamindars in the history of Bangladesh are very fabricated and malicious. Here are the names of some schools and colleges in the East Bengal region i.e. Bangladesh. These educational institutions were built under the patronage of Hindu kings and Zamindars. From these names alone one can get an idea of how generously the Hindu kings and Zamindars performed their duties for the betterment of the people of East Bengal.
