Imam allowance sets off in Malda

Communalization of politics will rape Bengal only

There has been lots of hue and cry from people against the calamitous generosity of Didi on Imams across the state (followed by Muazzins) but the juggernaut of ruling clique in Bengal, to strengthen the Islamic vote bank and (thus) secure its prolonged existence in the corridors of power, is unabated and the onset of allowances to Imams in the district of Malda proves it best. Well, you can certainly ask (being a citizen in a democratic country) the nitty-gritty of this decision, taken by a cash-strapped government virtually, - many have already done it but Didi’s choicest thing on earth (Imams) is invulnerable and can’t be obstructed from getting the celestial (?) aids through her.

On May 30, 2012, cheques were given to 32 Imams in Malda and in accordance with Dr. Archana, District Magistrate of Malda, all have been done to strengthen the spirit of harmony throughout the district. It has been learnt, procedures to make the government’s decision a reality started a few days ago and the form of application was sent to almost all Imams. She also said that Malda, being a Muslim-dominated district, earns a special attention from different echelons of the government in this regard. There happens to be 2500 Imams (at least) in Malda, as per governmental records, and applications of 1056 Imams have been duly checked by now. Imams having core banking account will get the money through banks altogether and will not have to travel all the way to district administration office in Malda in such a sordid summer.

Each Imam was given allowance of one-and-a-half-month (starting from April, 2012) amounting to Rs. 3, 719.

Without a shred of doubt, the newly-founded tradition will go on vigorously and strengthen with each month it passes.

Democratic culture of India has an unparallel feature also – new governments are not (commonly) found to scrub decisions of earlier governments. And surely no party in Bengal, in the following days, will dare to rescind Imam allowance – all have got to remain secular and tolerant.          

Thus begins a new journey, weird (in every capacity) in the political culture of Bengal (from August 15, 1947 thus far), leading to the utter communalization of its political scenario.

What’s if Hindus remain indignant? Who does care for them? Let them go for personal salvation and sing hymns in temples; beggars are not allowed to address, not to mention their own aspirations or agonies. 

Islamists thrashed heavily in Basanti

Whether it is Puja or any other celebration of exclusively Hindu form, it happens to be an eyesore to Islamists and no stone is left unturned to spoil it. This is not any new development but has been a part of Islamic tradition – in short, its perennial attribute that can be throttled only if combatants of other religion get stimulated and offer stiff resistance.  

It was May 14, 2012 when a Shiva Puja took place under the auspices of 4 Hindu families of Ojhapara in village: No. 7 Kumrakhali, P.S. Basanti, District: 24 Paraganas (South). Necessary permission for making use of sufficient electricity was also there and hence, electric lines were attached to the plinth of Puja. Everything was fine but on May 24, 2012 at 10.30 am the electric supply got disconnected all of a sudden.   When inquired it was found that students of nearby Madrasa were solely instrumental behind the incident. Two Hindu youths, Swapan Ojha and Toton Ojha, went to the Madrasa and brought back the electric wire forcibly.

When they returned to Ojhapara, several discussions were going on between the Hindu youths and at that time Toton Ojha stated that perhaps students of Madrasa are more apt in all such nefarious designs to perturb Hindu families in particular. An Islamist youth, Ziarul Naia, heard this, started to admonish Toton and also thrashed him. Hindu youths of Ojhapara got enraged as a result and to save Toton, they thrashed Ziarul as well. Gautam Ray, another Hindu youth, turned out to be the interlocutor at this time and got successful to bring the fast worsening situation to a close.  It was decided that guardians of both families would resolve the issue before long.

But Ziarul was not ready to pardon Hindus in any way. This became most prominent when Satyen (Shibu) Ojha, while returning from tutoring students through a Muslim area (on the same day during night), was grabbed by Ziarul and his cohorts and was beaten black and blue. The information of such an inhuman thrashing reached to Hindu youths (engaged in a meeting just then) soon and all of them including Milan Ojha, Gopal Ojha, Debu Ojha, Pratap Dolui rushed to the spot and thrashed the entire gang. The clash continued till Satyen was rescued and witnessing the valor of Hindus no Islamist dared to advance later on even. 

Frantic efforts of Islamists to desecrate, destroy Kali Temple in Usthi

A frantic endeavor of Islamists to desecrate and destruct a Hindu Kali Temple took place at village: Deula Bholer Haat, P.S. Usthi, District: 24 Paraganas (South) (at almost 12 am) on May 24, 2012.

It must be stated (at this juncture), these kinds of incidents are getting common in the aforesaid area and its vicinity more and more making Hindus remain conscious forever and a day. Hence, the vigilant Hindu villagers became able to get hold of two Islamic miscreants on the spot (even in the dead night) while two others managed to flee.

The horrendous incident shocked Hindus highly and this led to an outrage among them and hence, the two Islamists were thrashed heavily. 

As soon as police came, the two Islamists were handed over to police, and as per reports, police is heading an investigation to nab the two Islamists on the run.

Villagers of Deula Bholer Haat claim that 4 Islamic criminals were from the neighboring village of Kaharpur, a strong Muslim-dominated area.  

Hindus pay back Islamists in the same coin in Budge Budge

It was reported on May 06, 2012 (Daily Bartaman) that a thief, Mainul by name, (young as well) was taken hold of by locals at Kharapara, Budge Budge at dead night and became victim of a public outrage soon; he was beaten heavily.  People claimed that regular thefts had been troubling them lots and so they were prepared to catch the individual then and there. Prior to handing Mainul over to police, his head was shaven. Perhaps Hindus considered it as a mark of punishment.

But the situation refused to end there and the next part of the development was not reported by the aforesaid popular Bengali daily (for obvious reasons – to maintain tranquility in the society through chanting the mantra of weird secularism). 

Here is the next part.

As soon as Mainul was handed over to police, a number of clubs of Islamists along with their members, instigated by Aminul Safui, local councilor, went to the police station, gheraoed it while hurling abuses on Hindus. Some of them were also found to admonish Hindus in public and tear down a few Hindu shops.   

But Islamists erred; they considered that Hindus, as usual, would not dare to protest and the match would turn out to be one-sided. Activists of Hindu Samhati, contrary to their belief, geared up to offer a stiff resistance to this nasty design of Islamists. They led a large mob of Hindus representing areas like Chowkgopal, Byanjan Heria of KhariBeria and at 10 pm, all went to the local police station to lodge a formal complaint against Islamists.

The aggressive posture created a sensation in the area and inhibited the alleged hardihood of Islamists.

Islamists in that area found out that Hindus can also be daring and can outshine them in terms of valor. 

Hindu religious procession beaten mercilessly in Hooghly

Islamists flaunting muscles still; police remains spineless onlooker

There has been a sudden ascension in onslaughts on Hindus by Islamists throughout Bengal and in the majority of cases the circumstances appear to be quite the same. While in most cases the police stand as a hopeless, spineless bystander (with no discretion to stop Islamic fanatics), administration appears to be a greater cohort to all those (responsible for) hatching the conspiracy. It is found to be prompt enough to adopt an anti-Hindu position (at any time) through harassing or even rejecting formal complaints of Hindus in these riotous situations.

It will be too early to knock the ruling clique to mastermind ongoing attacks; the situation was similar in the earlier regime too. But with each day it passes, the situation is getting murkier. Hindus are already at the receiving end; they are found to lose faith on and to have any justice from the administration.

How Islamists remain outfitted (round the clock) to harass and also thrash Hindus got apparent yet again on May 15, 2012, at village: Santoshpur, P.S. Jangipara, Distirct: Hooghly. Hindus have been observing Raksha Kali Puja there for decades and as a part of the program, on the fateful day, Hindus, most of whom were women, were carrying Gangajal (holy water of River Ganges) from Sheoraphuli Ganga ghat to Santoshpur along with the holy deity (this convention has also been continuing for decades). Musical instruments were also being played in the procession and undoubtedly, the environment was joyful. Almost 50 policemen were also guarding the long procession.

But all joys ended soon. At 6 pm, police stopped the elated procession at No. 31 route for 40 minutes at a stretch. When inquired, police replied that all were done to let the namaz (being performed at the Santoshpur mosque) remain undisturbed. Hindus got agitated and reacted strongly; they also blocked the road to give vent to their hurt feelings but police stated barefacedly that everything was being done as per order of SDO.

The religious procession started at 6.40 pm once again and the moment it reached Santosphur crossing, it was stopped by a pack  of armed Islamists (at least 100) led by Sahabuddin Mallik, Samsuddin Mallik, Rezwan Ali (known as strong-armers in the neighborhood). The Hindu religious procession was attacked at once, Hindu women were thrashed with bamboo sticks, some were even stoned and sustained grave injuries, as a result.

All these happened before police (a spent force by now) and only when Hindus were witnessed to hit back, police stopped Islamists and dispersed the gang. However, Islamists, from a safe distance, continued to warn Hindus.

Kali puja completed under a tight security of police.  

Budding doctors to study Islamic history!

Minorities Development Department, Bengal is all set to form a Medical College under Aliah University, and the detailed project report (DPR) of the same has already been completed.

As per sources in Minorities Development Department in the Writers’ Building, a medical hospital under Aliah University is going to be constructed in Rajarhat and the Government of Bengal has allotted 20 acres of lands to the university. Well, the hospital (with 500 beds) will be formed in 10 acres of land there and 200 seats will be assigned to the students of medical college. In accordance with DPR, 501 crores of rupees is required to implement the entire project.

Some other aspects must also be taken into consideration. In accordance with codes of Aliah University, it’s mandatory to study Arabic language and Islamic history. Students of medical college will have got to do the same, as per an official of Minorities Development Department. Dr. Shamsul Alam, Vice-Chancellor of Aliah University, stated, “A proposal to form a Medical College under Aliah University has been sent to the Minorities Development Department. I have learnt that some progressions have taken place in this regard.” As stated by sources in Writers’ Building, the proposal is awaiting the formal approval of Chief Minister, Mamata Banerjee. Mamata, incidentally, happens to be the minister of Minorities Development Department as well and in the current economic year, 98 crores of rupees has been allocated to the Aliah University.

If Mamata gets generous (quite naturally), the project may start at any time and if an official of the concerned government is to be believed, Mamata has already made it clear that Hooghly River Bridge Commissioners (HRBC) will construct the building of Aliah University. All these make us raise a few pertinent questions. Each and every medical college in Bengal does remain under the jurisdiction of West Bengal University of Medical Sciences. Why should a medical college remain under a new university then? Is there any answer to the same?

Well, a government official has made it clear, “If Bengal CM desires such an incident (even if it’s unusual) can happen easily.” He also stated that such an event would make it easier for Muslim students to study MBBS.

But students are enrolled in the discipline of studying medicine only if they get success in the Joint Entrance Examination. How can one ensure the presence of more Muslim students in the aforesaid medical college then?  Aliah University happens to be open to all students irrespective of differences of class, caste or religion.  

Vice-Chancellor of Aliah University states with conviction “As per codes of Aliah University, it is mandatory for every student to read Arabic language. Moreover, since Madrasa education is the cornerstone of this university, studying Islamic history is also obligatory.”       

Minorities Development Department is confident that such measures would enthuse Muslim students to join the university in large numbers. 

Hindus warned in Bhasna

Police’s tacit support to Islamists makes situation agonizing 

This could have been a brilliant saga of Hindu resistance to Islamists’ onslaughts had not the tacit support of the administration to the same perpetrators been there.

On May 15, 2012, at 9.30 pm, Gaffar Zamadar, age 28, an Islamist residing in the neighboring village of Koutala, was caught red-handed while daring to enter the residence of a Hindu individual (sneakily), Sri Govinda Banik, living in village: Bhasna, P.S. Dhola, District: 24 Paraganas (South), to rob the entire family of all their belongings. It is worthwhile to mention that the said village has been an epicenter of nasty activities (of al forms) of Islamists to harm Hindus on the whole and hence, compassion of Hindus to Gaffar was unlikely. Hindus, en masse, after getting hold of him, thrashed him highly and Gaffar got unconscious. He was taken to Kupi Hospital where he was declared dead at once.   

The development created strong reactions among Islamists inhabiting the environs and as a mark of protest, they were perceived to gherao the police station and also block the thoroughfare. What is most striking, Islamists were found to chant wild slogans focusing on the need of vengeance against Hindus openly (this took place before police openly) and term Gaffar Zamadar as an “Imam bhai” and no thief. 

Hindus were admonished (by Islamists) in public of strong actions; witnessing the uncanny silence of police they could not get the courage to remain in their own dwellings any more. An FIR has been submitted by Islamists against 61 Hindus (at least) terming them as the main brains behind the death of Gaffar.

RAF has been deployed in the area to keep any untoward incident at bay but it’s not enough to instill confidence among Hindus there.

A large number of Hindu men along with women have fled to other villages and the remnants are not finding it safe to remain there. 

Political reprisal victimizes Hindus in Joynagar only

Hindus apprehending worst

The murder of Shaukat Khan, at 7.30 am, on May 14, 2012, in the area of Ghoshalchowk, P.S. Joynagar, District: 24 Paraganas (South), has turned into a catastrophe for Hindus in the vicinity. The slain individual, resident of village: Paschim Rupnagar of Beledurganagar village Panchayat, had his own business of clothes but owing to transactions used to live in Metiaburuz, Kolkata. As per sources, while returning to his house yesterday he was attacked by a pack of armed criminals and dragged out of the auto-rickshaw; then, he was chopped up followed by pumping of 3 bullets into his chest. He died on the spot but the gruesome episode, a part of relentless bloody feud between political parties, CPIM and SUCI, had no relation with Hindus who have become worst victims of persecution by Islamists. The bloody vengeance started at 3 pm and in the veil of attacking CPIM supporters, Hindus were thrashed like a shot.        

However, the source of bloody feud happens to be the murder of Sri Bimal Haldar, supporter of CPIM, almost 10 years back. Murder of Shaukat Khan, termed as an active member of SUCI, happens to be the newest addition to the same trend only. Whatever it is, even if the murder is political, its fallout is no political but victimizes Hindus only.    

Hindus living in areas of Haldarpara, Naskarpara, Sardarpara, Baidyapara and Brahminpara, in village Taranagar, have become worst victims of frantic Islamists – considering Hindus as easy prey to teach CPIM a lesson. It’s a well-known fact that no political party in Bengal is ready to espouse the Hindus cause or at least protest against all these. It is needless to mention the role of CPIM in this context.

Almost 30 Hindu houses have been burnt down, granaries looted bringing means of livelihood of Hindus to an end. 2 Hindu housewives – Shabori Haldar and Anita Haldar – were also abducted and taken to Khanpara, an Islamist-dominated area. However, police was able to rescue the two innocent Hindu women later on but dumped them in the Hindu-dominated area of Jiban Mandaler Haat (without providing any primary medical assistance). They, later, were taken to Sudhamayi Pharmacy, by relatives; Shabori is in a nearby hospital while Anita is in her relative’s house.

Ms. Tumpa Naskar, daughter of Sri Mahadev Naskar, was nearly snatched but defiance of women (of her family) saved her. Sri Sukumar Haldar (age -18 years) is also in hospital now as his hand has been injured by Islamists severely.  

It is worthwhile to mention that almost 40 Muslims households do reside in Khanpara while 150 Hindu families live in the neighboring Hindu-dominated areas. To lodge a formal complaint against Islamists, Hindu went to P.S. Joynagar, but the plea was rejected then and there.  Hindu males of Taranagar have fled in fear of police and Islamists’ atrocities while the majority of their women have taken refuge in relatives’ dwellings.  

RAF has been deployed in the locality but Hindus are apprehending more attacks.

It has been learnt, more than 1, 500 Islamists assembled while burying Shaukat Khan today in noon.   

Demand for reservation of all Muslims in Bengal!

Does this desire carry seeds of partition once more?

What we had been apprehending has come true finally – it was apprehended, considering undue eleemosynary (beneficent) posture of reigning government to better Muslims, that there would be demands of reservation of Muslims en masse before long.  

And the fear became most apparent when Sultan Ahmed, senior leader of Trinamool Congress, Union Minister of State for Tourism in the reigning government and also the minority face of his own party, speaking at Teachers’ Conference of Child Education Centre of All Bengal Minority Council, on May 12, 2012, gave a clarion call to make reservation for the entire Muslim community in the state of Bengal a reality. In accordance with the minister, such reservations do exist in the states of Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Tamilnadu and Karnataka; it’s, therefore, high time to introduce and establish the same in Bengal.

He also said that based on Census, 2011, Muslims form 26% of the populace in Bengal; consequently, reservation for the entire Muslim community can’t be less than 18%. And thus Muslims would no longer remain in the tag of OBC.

Had he restricted himself to this, it would have certainly been better. Refusing to stop here, he went on saying that members of All Bengal Minority Council must organize conferences in the state level as regards reservation where representatives from Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala ought to be invited to learn from them ways to render reservation to the entire Muslim community.  

Well, this bragging, without doubt, will not generate any result; Constitution of India doesn’t consent to reservation based on religions.  But the trend has been established. While on one hand it will display good wishes of Trinamool to better Muslims en masse, on the other hand it will just boost Islamists to attain their aim of turning Bengali into a Muslim-dominated state in India. 

Trinamool Congress may emerge victorious in the imminent Panchayat election, thanks to this but the development will seal fates of Hindus only.

It is said that Government of India Act 1935 contained seeds of partition in 1947. Bengali Hindus, as per political analysts, at that time were left with opportunities of perceiving and criticizing it only but not to halt it in its tracks.   

History is repeating itself; cudgel of responsibility to defeat it is on Hindus.

Will they become successful this time?

It’s the most important question at the moment. 

Hindus thrash Islamists for attempting to molest Hindu women in Bahir Bena, Canning

Without doubt, village: Bahir Bena (existing within the area of Dhalir Barti), P.S. Canning, District: 24 Paraganas (South), has turned out to be free country for Islamists where anything can take place at their will without fear of punishment from the administration or reprisal of others.

Why is such a harsh accusation being made?

There are indeed enough reasons; while the rape of an innocent Hindu housewife in the first week of April, 2012 (rapist Sarafat Mandal still at large, owing to sheer inefficiency of police) in the same area shocked Hindus, on April 16 the village became a backdrop of another Hindu-Muslim conflict because of Islamists’ misbehavior and bids to molest Hindu women reveling a cultural program. The cultural program was part of a fair going on for several years at a stretch; Islamists’ misbehavior has also been going on without break.

On April 16, at 9 pm, a few Islamist ruffians, perceiving the large presence of Hindu women in the cultural program, sneaked into the program as mere viewers. They included Hizrat Mollah, Dorab Mollah, Habijur Mollah along with several others and from the very beginning, lewd remarks were made to Hindu women.

Hindu women there preferred to bypass but soon it became unbearable and hence, they reported it to the Hindu youths, especially activists of Hindu Samhati, there. Hindu youths challenged the miscreants straight away; nonetheless, Islamists also approached towards them. But the Hindu strength proved to be too powerful to them. Hizrat Mollah, Dorab Mollah, Habijur Mollah were taken hold of while others fled and the 3 Islamists were thrashed.

Police was informed by the fair committee to hand over the 3 Islamists to the local administration. Surprisingly though police came later, they did not arrest the 3 culprits. Islamists were advised not to repeat the same!

Were the 3 culprits freed for being Islamists? Would the police have behaved likewise if they had been Hindus?

Blatant parochialism rules Bengal at the moment.

What a shame for democracy of India. 

Islamist bid to ravish Hindu housewife in Bagda

Hindus burnt Islamist ruffian’s house  

Islamists’ bids to ravish modesty of Hindu women are unabated and the latest in this regard took place on May 06, 2012, around 2.30 pm, at village: Malipota, P.S. Bagda, District: 24 Paraganas (North).

Maloti (name changed*****), a Hindu housewife (age 28), was in her residence all alone when Shahjahan Mondal, son of Insan Mondal, dared to enter it and outrage her. Maloti, being perplexed (at the start) for the sudden attack, could not decide what to do but later to save herself she used a wooden stick to strike the Islamist ruffian. Shahjahan, finding an attacking Hindu woman, had no other option other than to flee.

The disgraceful incident ignited the entire village and its Hindu residents, suffering such incidents (on the rise) in the vicinity for years, in particular. And they were quick enough to express their vigor and anger. As police came late in spite of repeated pleas, Hindus en masse burnt the house of Islamist perpetrator, Shahjahan Mondal, down.

Police did arrive later on to take stock of the situation and accepted an official complaint of the happening.

Nevertheless, Hindus, being experienced with the placative and pro-Islamist stances of police and administration, virtually warned police this time stating if police fails to nab Shahjahan right away, they will settle the matter in their own capacity.
