d. 8 point plan
ANSWER: 5 point plan
Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has floated a five-point proposal at the United Nations to find a permanent solution to the Rohingya crisis.
Hasina stressed the end to the 'cleansing' of the ethnic Rohingya minority.
The Rohingya crisis is deepening along Bangladesh’s border with Myanmar, a crossing made by over 430,000 refugees fleeing violence in Rakhine State in past over three weeks.
Hasina’s five-point proposal says:- Myanmar must stop the violence and the practice of ethnic cleansing in the Rakhine State unconditionally, immediately and forever;
- the UN Secretary General should immediately send a fact-finding mission to Myanmar;
- all civilians, irrespective of religion and ethnicity, must be protected in Myanmar;
- and the recommendations of the Kofi Annan Commission Report must be implemented immediately, unconditionally and entirely.
- for this, 'safe zones' could be created inside Myanmar under UN supervision; sustainable return of all forcibly displaced Rohingyas in Bangladesh to their homes in Myanmar must be ensured
