Hindu Activist hounded out from residence in Rajarhat
Uttering words of protest against
injustice and expressing one’s own opinion (as a citizen of India and also
according to the Fundamental Rights as enshrined in the Constitution of India)
has become a bane in Bengal these days and what is being done to the protestor
can be said none except Santanu Basak, s/o late Tapan Basak, inhabiting
village: Choto Chandpur, P.S. Rajarhat, District: 24 Paraganas (North), at the
moment.
Santanu
is known as General Secretary of Vishwa Hindu Parishad in Block: Rajarhat and
at the moment, he is fleeing his own residence with the entire family. His
residence was assaulted, dashed while his wife, daughter were molested by a
large group of 5,000 Islamists on July 5, 2013 at 9 pm. Sanatnu strived to
publish a leaflet questioning whether Barasat, following spate of recent
attacks on Hindu women – especially gang rape and murder of Shipra Ghosh in
Kamduni, has turned into a mini Pakistan.
What
the handbill expressed was nothing except basic truth haunting millions of
Hindus in the state now. It pointed out that the dominance of Muslim radicals
in Barasat is not anything abrupt but the fallout of devilish policies of both
CPIM and the reigning governance to deprive Hindus and oust them
eventually.
Even
if the distribution of flyers among commoners witnessed a great success, the
hardiness of Santanu with straight info in the handbill irked both Islamists
and local administration highly. As a result, his residence along with whole
family became aim of the violent attack for which they had to flee.
Local
police administration failed to assure him security in the area from the Muslim
goons. These protesting and attacking Muslims do not think it proper or
necessary to lodge any complaint, if any, against Santanu Basak for publishing
and distributing the said leaflet with the competent authority. They took law
in their own hands. This is common feature all over West
Bengal nowadays, and people are accustomed to live with it.
Strikingly,
the armed, violent pack of Islamists was led by Muslim radicals, termed as
absconders by the police and administration till date. Some of these absconders
are Yaar Ali Mandal, Abdul Mandal, Entaj Gazi, Tapan Islam, Salim Gain, Rashid
Mandal, Sabir Mandal and against all of them Santanu Basak lodged an FIR No.
152/12 dtd. 27/10/2012 under sections 4/5 of West Bengal Animal Slaughters
Control Act, 1950 for slaughtering cows intentionally to hurt Hindu sentiment
within the premises of village: Choto Chandpur Mallikati.
None
of the above-mentioned felons has been arrested yet (remaining as absconders to
police) but all of them were reportedly present in the assault on Santanu Basak
and his family.
