Abstract

The Rohingya refugee crisis is one of the world’s most terrible incidents, which hasbeen reported since 2012. Rakhine State Riot’s images shared on social media sparkedin a big manner globally. Since 2016, government forces have brutally killed thousandsof people. Organized mobs and army units have brutally handled and killed people.However, this paper critically looks for insights into Rohingya’s historical and ethniclinkage. The paper also looks at Myanmar’s regressive approach towards Rohingya andthe state’s actions. The paper used descriptive methodology, and regressive statebehaviour and analyzed the prosecution of Rohingya people through the human rightsapproach. This paper analyzes how a world-renowned human rights face, Aun San SuuKyi, a winner of the Noble Peace Prize in 1991, neglected the issue of human rights. Theother aspect of the paper highlights neighbour countries like India and Bangladesh,where these Rohingya refugees settled down under the UNHCR. The question is, whydid the UN and World powers have not taken action against the brutal regimepromptly? Why the world left them to suffer for so long, despite international humanrights agencies and neighbours even the Muslim and Islamic World’s effectivepresence?
