Turning worst apprehensions depicted through the article “Communal tensions over mosques heightening” (published in this website of late) into truth, Topsia in Kolkata today was thrown out of gear for consecutive hours following clamors and disruptive activities of a large group of hoodlums hell-bent to grab the Asgar Mistri Mosque under Hafez Dilawar Hossain Wakf State within the jurisdiction of Topsia police station. Tension that any such sinister development would take place was prevalent in the area, enjoying an overwhelming Hindu population, and the fear heightened through recurrent malicious propaganda in the environs against Hindus and also slanderous campaigns against Mamata Banrejee, Chief Minister of Bengal. Even if police tired to ward off criminal offense today, they, being ordered by political taskmasters to retain a strong minority support, had to remain silent for most of the time. This event is a dangerous signal to all, especially when religious antagonism is be...

It has come to knowledge from sources that on January 3, 2014, a few prominent leaders of Muslim community, following Jumma Namaz in the mosque situated at Samsul Huda Road, Kolkata – 17, mulled over the fate of two mosques for hours. One of the two mosques happens to be the Hazi Benku Lane Mosque, located at No. 13 Konnagar under the jurisdiction of the police station of Uttar Para in the district of Hooghly. It has also been learnt, the mosque and its adjoining property was purchased by an individual named Subrata Sengupta for a real estate project. But commencement of the venture led to an uproar in the area. To stop the project, Muslims asked the local administration to let them offer namaz in the adjoining land (lying vacant) but the proposal was refuted by Uttar Para police station outright. To stave off any untoward development, the property was termed as disputed and Section 144 of CrPC was imposed. The notice was conveyed to Muslim intellectuals and clerics as well. Howe...

The stupendous rise of  Raja Ganesha or Raja Kans or Raja Danujamardanadeva  in the politics of mediaeval Bengal (in 1415 AD) by overthrowing the Ilyas Shahi dynasty or the first independent Muslim dynasty then fragmented Islamic hegemony in the region and this was based on his vengeful or rancorous activities. His supremacy perturbed Sufi saints or Darbesh such that Sheikh Nur Qutub-ul-Alam, well-known Muslim Chisti saint, sent a letter to Ibrahim Shah Sharqi or the Sultan of Jaunpur to raid Bengal and relieve them from the rule of this Kafir or infidel.  Raja Ganesha’s rule witnessed several ups and downs – his son was converted to Islam under compulsion and then reconverted to Hinduism. Nevertheless, with the help of other Hindu kings he formed a confederacy that posed severest challenges to the dream of establishing an Islamic empire. It is worth mentioning, Raja Ganesha assisted by other Hindu kings controlled entire Bengal even if for a brief period – remain...

Crime against women has become the latest fad in Bengal; whether it is the infamous Park Street case episode in Kolkata or the gang rape and murder of a teenager in Madhyamgram of late, the saga continues. Fate of culprits in these cases is now shared by Sheikh Moti. He has been arrested on January 3, 2014 from the village of Khaitan in Dubrajpur for raping a five-year old girl in Suri, Birbhum on last Tuesday. It has been learnt, he has been sent to jail custody for 14 days.  The dreadful incident occurred on last Tuesday when Laxmi Majhi (named changed) was playing with her friends in the courtyard of Hemanta Mahara in Saddipara in Ward no. 12 in the town of Suri within the district of Birbhum. The culprit who lives in Rutipara visited Hemanta’s residence on that day. While he was talking to Hemanta, Moti saw Laxmi and allegedly dragged her into Hemanta’s residence and raped her. Locals affirm that Hemanta and his wife’s silence incited him to go on with the heinous crime. ...

We are heading to a new Parliamentary election once more and the sole question remains of the victor now. Who will triumph finally?  Will it be the same UPA or whether it’s the time for NDA-led by BJP to ascend? Or will there be any Third Front? Well, it can be anyone but the minority community has nothing to worry.  It, true to its records, has become active already to influence the electoral procedure and it is no secret to any that all political parties in India, cutting across so-called ideologies, are hell-bent to appease them to have their blessings (in terms of votes). Islamic organizations know well how political leaders leave no stone unturned to have their support and hence, visit their offices day in and day out.  So, to exploit such a golden opportunity, a Charter of Demands (containing 20 demands for now) has already been staged to different parties (as published in the Nov. 29, 2013 or Friday edition of Dainik Kalam). The charter, if analyzed meticulou...

Riotous Muslim mob retains sway On January 1, 2014, between 9 am and 1 pm, almost 70 shops possessed by Hindus at Dhaki Bazar within the jurisdiction of police station of Kultali in the district of South 24 Paraganas were captured by a large gang of Muslims. It has been learnt, around 1, 000 Muslim people from the adjoining area and also from outside assembled within the market. They were from all walks of life and from different political parties also but united with a single purpose and it was to oust Hindu traders from those shops. Even if Hindu leaders of same political parties also watched the turmoil, they preferred to remain as mute spectators. According to locals, all Hindu leaders took flight once they learnt that the unruly mob comprising riotous youths was led by Suja, alleged to be a trusted acquaintance of Selim or the dreaded criminal from Mograhat. A contingent of local police station under the supervision of a police officer named Imarul Haque was also ...

Without doubt, current developments in the realm of Bangladesh have caught attention of global community and apprehensions that the impending election in Bangladesh on January 5, 2014 and violent protests orchestrated by BNP and its Islamic cohorts to it will lead the country to a novel stalemate are rising. There have been several developments both to organize the election and to foil it despoiling human lives, especially Hindus, only. The question remains – where this beleaguered nation go from here and how far these developments will affect the Indian state of West Bengal, known to be visited by Hindu refugees from Bangladesh already. The situation is grave and sending wrong signals to this part of the international border too. What is the best way to save West Bengal? Should it also take a tough stand against Jamaat, its accomplices and do the needful to fend off intrusions of their cadres into the Indian mainland? Time is limited and there is the need to act fast. Howeve...
