Book Review | The ‘Joy Bangla’ Deception by Kausik Gangopadhyay and Devavrata

This essay is a review of 'The ‘Joy Bangla’ Deception', a provocative book and deeply unsettling inquiry into the foundational myths of Bangladesh, and their long-term impact on the Hindu-minority population. Harshly critiquing mainstream liberal narratives, the book presents a forceful counter-history - one that interrogates the politics of identity, exposes state-sanctioned discrimination, and laments the ongoing erasure of Hindu and Buddhist cultural presence in a land propped up internationally as a symbol of secular nationalism.
