Hindu Samhati Holds Protest March at Haringhata Police Station
Deputation to Police to Protect Hindus from Islamist Extremists
PROTEST AGAINST THE ATTACK ON HARINGHATA
HINDU FESTIVAL BY MUSLIM MISCREANTS
A peaceful protest march organized by Hindu Samhati, at the Haringhata Police Station in Nadia district, passed off peacefully on May 5, 2010. Tensions had been simmering in this area over repeated assaults by Muslim miscreants on Hindus attending the Pagol Thakurer Mela, a local Hindu festival.
The procession of approximately 500 people walked 7 km. on a hot day, from Paglatala to Haringhata Police Station. The procession started at 1.30 pm and reached the venue at 3 pm, where it culminated into a protest meeting. Speakers were Tapan Ghosh, Advocate B.N. Roy, Advocate Tushar Kanti Tikader, Susen Biswas and Brahmacharini Smriti Devi. Strong slogans were raised from the procession and the meeting against the Muslim culprits and against police inaction. Thereafter a delegation of 8 members entered the police station and met the officers for detailed discussion on the security of the Hindus.
It was heartening to see that although intimation of the meeting was given to the Inspector In Charge (Subrato Sarkar) of the Police Station, his senior officer S.D.P.O. (Sub Divisional Police Officer) Bhaskar Mukherjee was present there to meet Hindu Samhati protesters . I.C. Subrato Sarkar was present too.
Even though there were some disagreements of over the facts mentioned in the memorandum, the S.D.P.O. took the protester's representation seriously, explained them in detail about the steps taken by the police to ensure safety and security of the Hindus.
They were also touched by the presence of a large number of people travelled long distances under the scorching sun, to express their grievances. Hindu Samhati protesters stressed that it is the duty of the administration to act impartially to satisfy these people.
The S.D.P.O. assured everyone that police would do its duty in bringing the culprits to justice.
The protesters were encouraged by the turnout and solidarity shown by the Hindu community of Haringhata. They vowed to continue their struggle against the continued aggression and attacks by Muslims.

Also, hindus should be very careful & intelligent while voting. Our vote should not be divided. Currently BJP is much better than any pseudo secular party in India, though they need to do much more for hindus & all other nationalist citizens.
