Hindu Samhati meeting in Malda inspires Hindus to become more resolute

Islamic fundamentalism and its fast and unchecked growth in Malda have become a cause of concern for the Indian administration, though it does shiver to accept the same in public, and particularly for Hindus, witnessing their own destruction at the hands of Islamic perpetrators for centuries. And the situation, at this point in time, is such that any more compromise or hesitation to struggle will lead to Hindu extinction altogether. To educate and motivate Hindus so that they carry on the self-defence Hindu Samhati, led by its president, Sri Tapan Ghosh, is working tooth and nail.

This zeal was found again in the Bazar meeting at Baishnabnagar, P.S. Kaliachak, Malda on January 20, 2012. Sri Tapan Ghosh was the chief speaker in the meeting.   

The village is positioned on the bank of Ganga, on the upper side of Farakka barrage and heavy rain and subsequent flood thanks to the great width of the river, every year, endanger the village a great deal. All these indicate that Hindus in the village fight in two fronts at the same instant – an alien nature and belligerent Muslim neighbors.

Is marriage of a Hindu man to a Muslim woman crime in India?

Need to take a hard stand or dump Secularism forever

The definition of secularism, as per western schools of thought, is one and simple - a doctrine that rejects religion and religious considerations or a permanent separation between religion and the state. But the same is completely missing in the Indian context at the moment where it has become more synonymous with capitulation to Islamic fundamentalism and minorityism. Myriad instances are there to prove this latest chronicle but none can put it across better than a marriage between a Hindu and Muslim. If the groom is Muslim and bride is Hindu, it’s the perfect sort of secularism but the reverse is communal indisputably.  And this alleged antithesis has become synonymous with the lot of Sandip Sarkar and his wife Nasima Yasmin who married on November 21, 2010 and authenticated in the “Special Marriage Act” on December 28, 2010.

While Sandip resides in village Salash, Tapan, P.S. Tapan, Nasima was living in Asharubasti, P.S. Chopra (both in District: South Dinajpur, Bengal) and all problems, including harassments and life threats, started once Sandip brought his wife to his ancestral residence. A complaint of kidnap has already been filed by Nasima’s parents while two MLAs, votaries of distorted secularism, Hamidur Rehman, independent MLA supported by Congress of Chopra and Bacchu Hansda, Trinamool Congress MLA of Tapan, are leaving no stone unturned to meddle in this private affair.

Nasima is courageous enough to face all these onrushes and has already complaint of a conspiracy between her parents and politicians to terminate the marriage, done by her willfully and devoid of any external pressure. As per Nasima, Bacchu Hansda had convinced her some days back to return forever and he retreated only when she threatened to commit self-annihilation. But Hamidur Rehman is more stubborn and is gnashing his teeth as a Muslim lady has married a Hindu and agrees to live as a Hindu. He has stated clearly that Sandip has got to prove his legal marriage and then a solution can be accomplished.

The newly married couple is living in abject fear of losing life and so, Sandip, working in a private mobile company in Siliguri, can’t think to go to his office even. Albeit Nasima has contacted West Bengal Commission for Women and Sm. Jyotsna Agarwal, member of the Commission, has assured that pertinent measures will be adopted fast after talking with the Chairperson, the fear refuses to die down.

Can this despair of Sandip and Nasima brought to an end? Is India for momins only?

Decisive victory of Hindus in Kaliachak, Maldah; Muslim encroachers desert Hindu lands mutely

Whether it is cremation chamber or even a small stretch of land belonging to Hindus, Muslims intrinsically remain attracted to it and leave no stone unturned to grab that land – and in such cases adoption of foul measures come first. Hundreds of such reports have already been published in this site and hence, there is no need of any justification. If Hindus, on the contrary, get united and steadfast to struggle victory is found imminent. Such a gallant success took place recently at Kaliachak No. 3 Block, P.S. Baishnabnagar, District: Maldah regarding the longtime dispute over extensive tracts of Hindus adjoining Khejurighat Crematorium (Shamsan Ghat) occupied by Muslims forcefully for years.

The Hindu strength tuned out to be too overwhelming for Muslims and they had no other option except to retreat.

The large tracts bordering Khejurighat Crematorium belong to Hindus for generations and whenever Hindus started to move to urban areas for better sources of living, parcels of land started remaining vacant. Muslims, never ready to miss a chance to oppress Hindus, captured these pieces of land without seeking permission and started various kinds of farming including wheat. Even if Hindus pleaded to the Muslim cultivators to return their lands, those were never heeded and at times, Hindus were also manhandled and even beaten.

Bolstered by the victory Muslims started creating several problems, harassing Hindu families and their pals during cremations of loved ones. And these problems, with each day it passed, were reaching new heights and became unbearable in due course.

The first initiative to form a Hindu defence against the said misdeeds was taken by Sri Harendranath Sarkar, noted Hindu activist in the environs and also president of the Khejurighat Crematorium committee , and thanks to his insistence, Hindus of the neighboring villages created a strong fold  to wage a struggle to recover Hindu tracts and make their own destiny.

A series of meetings of Hindus took place and finally on January 07, 2011, large numbers of Hindus attended a meeting in the crematorium. The valiant Hindu congregation devastated Muslims and to settle the matter peacefully Morol (age 35), Muslim leader, came forward and agreed to desert tracts of no less than 8 bighas. There is no more tension at the moment and Hindu families are jubilant to get back their ancestral lands.

The decisive victory has stimulated Hindus to a large extent.
