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 Hindu 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. Two 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.
