West Bengal in the Peril of Islamic Jihad: Islamization and Jihadi ViolenceWritten by Dr. Radhasyam BrahmachariWednesday, 13 January 2010 03:08

An alarming account of Islamization and Jihad violence in the state of West Bengal, India...

India in the process of Islamization In the previous article, West Bengal in the Peril of Islamic Jihad: Part 1 , it has been mentionedthat, not only the state of West Bengal but also the entire India is fast turning into a Muslimmajority country and the state of West Bengal and Assam are going to be sacrificed first at thealtar of the new Muslim homeland of Mughalstan. In Assam, Muslims constituted only 20% in 1947, which has shot up to 40%, thanks to highMuslim birthrate, and illegal infiltration and settlement of Muslims from Bangladesh. West Uttar Pradesh was almost equally balanced between Hindus and Muslims in 1947, butnow has become a largely Muslim-majority area. Likewise in Kerala, Hindus were 70% in 1947,but about 50% now. Furthermore, North Kerala has become totally Muslim populated, while theCentral Kerala a wholly Christian dominated. As for Indian Kashmir, even in 1981, non-Muslims were 36%, but only 28% now due to increasein Muslim population. If this trend continues, which is all but inevitable, India may soon become an Islamic nation inthe not-too-distant future. Figure 1 shows the decline of Hindus and other non-Muslims versusthe rise of Muslims. It also shows that the total Muslim population zoomed from 12.5% in 1991to 30.3% in 2001, in just 10 years. An extension of the curves shows that Muslims wouldoverpopulate or become the majority in India in 50 years (2061) (To read more, see V.Sundarams article in News Today: Deathly Demographic warnings for India ).

Islamization of West Bengal It has been mentioned in the first part of this article that the Muslim population in West Bengal isincreasing very fast due to: (1) Planned and deliberate rejection of family planning measure by the Muslims, (2) Uncontrolled illegal infiltration of Bangladeshi Muslims through the porous Indo-Bangladeshborder, and, (3) Conversion of local Hindus to Islam. Table 1 shows the block-wise Muslim population in West Bengal. It shows that out of 341blocks, 142 are fast turning into Muslim-majority blocks, while Muslims constitute over 40% ofthe population in 83 other blocks. In other words, these blocks have turned or are turning intomini-Pakistans. It has been pointed out in the previous article that Mughalstan, a proposed new homeland forMuslims of India, is the brainchild of the Mughalstan Research Institute (MRI) of the JahangirNagar University (Bangladesh) under the patronage of two intelligence agencies: PakistansInter Services Intelligence (ISI) and Bangladeshs Director General of Forces Intelligence(DGFI). The MRI is monitoring the creation of Mughalstan, the corridor connecting Pakistan andBangladesh through Northern India. It is also monitoring and making a list of suchmini-Pakistans not only in West Bengal but also in entire India.

In 1947, Hindus were 35% of the population of erstwhile East Pakistan, nowBangladesh; it has now come down to mere 9%. On the other hand, Muslims, 9% of thepopulation of West Bengal in 1947, have grown up to 35%, thanks to high birthrate and illegalinfiltration from Bangladesh. It should also be mentioned here that during the partition in 1947, Hindus were 45% of the totalpopulation of undivided Bengal, but West Bengal, which was supposed to host the Hindus, wasgiven only 30% of the land area. And Hindus today constitute only 28% of the population of theEntire Bengal Region comprising West Bengal and Bangladesh. Table 2 below shows thedeclining population of minorities and Table 3 shows their employment pattern in thegovernment departments of Bangladesh.

We may cite the example Kashmir in this regard. In India, its the only state where Muslims arethe majority and let us see what happened there. Hundreds of temples were razed, Hindus wereforced to flee, their women were raped, children were killed and houses forcibly occupied. Theentire Kashmiri Hindu population, known as Kashmiri Pandits, have been driven out, killed orconverted between 1990 and 2000 in a silent Hindu genocide.Nearly 300,000 Kashmiri pundits are now living in makeshift camps in Delhi as refugees. It is needless to say that the Hindus in Bangladesh are victims of severe religious persecutionsby Muslims. It is a matter of serious concern that exactly similar types of oppression and tortureare now common affairs in the Muslim-dominated districts of West Bengal lying along the entirestretch of Bangladeshi border, where robbery, abduction and raping of women, murdering andbeating Hindus mercilessly, stealing their cattle, catching fish from ponds of the Hindus andlooting their grains and other valuables have become a regular feature. While Muslims, as a partof their jihad against the Hindus, commit all these crimes, police and other administrative andlaw enforcement authorities remain silent spectators. In most of the cases, police arrests theoppressed Hindus and set the Muslim perpetrators free. In the Muslim populated villages of West Bengal,where the condition of Hindus are not verymuch different and in some areas even worse than in Islamic Bangladesh, looting of Hinduhouses, cattle lifting, desecrating and profaning Hindu idols, molesting Hindu women is beingopenly carried out with the moralsupport of Islamic radicals, as well as tacit support of both theleftist and rightist political leaders, who, for the sake of vote-politics, appease Muslims. Thesepolitical leaders do not find any wrong with Muslims. In the case of a conflict, the police, beinginstructed by politicians, arrest the oppressed Hindus, while Muslim offenders are left alone. Presently, the ruling Left Front Government in West Bengal is replacing Hindu officers in policestations of Muslim dominated areas with Muslim ones, which will only further the Hindusufferance at the hand of Muslims. As a matter of fact, the process of ethnic-cleansing of Hindus is under way in theMuslim-majority localities, where Muslims are adopting exactly the same tactics, the Prophethad adopted in Medina, to drive out its Jews. Merciful Allah has commanded in the Koran tostrike terror into heart of the infidels, and following that command, the Prophet resorted toviolence and bloodshed, and struck terror into the hearts of the Jews and other non-MuslimsMedina and greater Arabia, thus, evicting them, and grabbing their properties, land-holdings,and women and children as spoils or mal-e-ganimat. The ghastly massacre of the Beni KoraizaJews by Muhammad was simply to strike terror into heart of the Jews and other non-Muslims ofArabia. Following the prophetic example or Sunnah, Muslims of Muslim-dominated pockets of WestBengal are also using the same tactics to strike terror in the hearts of Hindus by repeatedrobberies and looting properties of Hindu households, setting their homes ablaze, kidnappingHindu girls to rape them or convert them to Islam, throwing acid and pushing hot boiled egg orhot iron rod into their private parts, creating obstructions to their religious rites, demolishingtemples, desecrating or breaking Hindu idols, and so on and so forth, with the ultimate aim ofdriving them out of the locality and grab their properties and other valuables, and to occupy theirlandholdings. A few incidents may be presented to narrate the miserable condition of Hindus. 20 Hindu Families forced to flee their Homes Hoglaberia is a small village in the district of Nadia, West Bengal, situated at the border ofMurshidabad, and also near to Bangladesh border. Murshidabad is a Muslim-majority districtfrom days of the Muslim Nawabs and the border areas of Nadia have also become infested withMuslims due to uncontrolled illegal migration or demographic aggression by BangladeshiMuslims. The Muslim majority, and the despicable policy of Muslim appeasement of the LeftFront Government of the state, has turned these regions, spread over all the districts borderingBangladesh, into fertile grounds of Islamic jihad. For the past a few years, most of the Hindu households of Hoglaberia, subjected to constanttorture and atrocities by Muslims, have been forced to leave and taken shelter inHindu-dominated areas far away from the Bangladeshi border. But nearly 22 families of theDurlabhpara and Baganpara areas of Hoglaberia had to stay due to lack resources. Thesepeople claimed that, for past 4 years, they are being targets of severe jihadi activities. LocalMuslims and Muslims from the neighbouring district of Murshidabad have unleashed constantterror, torture and atrocities on them. Robbery, rape and abduction of their women in thedarkness of night have become a daily affair. These unfortunate people also said that they havenever obtained any respite by making complaints to the police and local administrativeauthorities. Complaints to the local Panchayet have also fallen on deaf ears. But from the second week of July, 2007, the terror unleashed by the jihadis crossed all previousrecords. Durga Paharia, the head of the Hoglaberia village, standing on the bank of riverJalangi, says: There are about 120 Hindus living in the village, and most of them earn theirliving as agricultural labourers. When men go out of the village in search of work, women remainto guard the households. At such hours of the day, Muslims, mainly from the district ofMurshidabad, come to Hoglaberia by crossing the river Jalangi and unleash atrocities on thewomen that continue for hours. Sometimes Muslim settlers from Bangladesh accompany thelocal Muslims in such operations. He also says that, being unable to sustain such attacks anylonger, they had to flee the village. Dhiren Paharia, another elder of the village says: Situation turned so bad that grown-up girlswere no longer safe. We had no other option but to withdraw them from schools and lodge themto their relatives elsewhere for safety, or marry them off early. In such a situation, nearly fourdays ago we have left our village Such are the stories of Hindus living in the Muslim-dominated areas in West Bengal, spreadover the entire stretch of Bangladeshi border. They find no help from the police; in most cases,law-enforcement agencies let the Muslim oppressor a free hand, while arresting and harassingthe oppressed Hindus. Following story would clarify it all: A 14-year-old Hindu boy burnt alive (From Dainik Statesman, a Bengali daily from Kolkata; A Distressed Hindu Family SeeksJustice; 23 June, 2007)

West Bengal in the Peril of Islamic Jihad: Islamization and Jihadi ViolenceWritten by Dr. Radhasyam BrahmachariWednesday, 13 January 2010 03:08

Dainik Statesman, a Bengali daily from Kolkata, reported on 23 June 2007 that two notoriousMuslim dacoits, Jamshed Ali Gain and his brother Gousher Ali Gain of the village Bantala, underthe police station of Basanti in South 24-Parganas district, and their gang are terrorizing thearea, but neither police nor the local MLA (Member of Legislative Assembly) and Village Councildare to take any action against these Muslim ruffians as the Left Front Government of the state,as a part of its policy of Muslim appeasement to stay in power, has instructed the police not totake any action against Muslim miscreants. The situation has deteriorated to such an extent that life and property of the Hindus are longersecure in Muslim-dominant areas in the state, and perhaps in entire Hindustan today, due thepolicy of Muslim appeasement adopted by the Government. The Bantala area is now mostlypopulated by Muslims, having only 26 Hindu households left. Surath Mandal (54), son of late Meghnad Mandal, was a resident of Bangal Para, in the villageof Kharimachan ofBasanti Police Station. As his family was well off, the above-mentioneddacoits made him a target. On one night in January, 2007, the dacoits Jamshed Ali Gain and hisbrother Gousher Ali Gain, along with their gang, fell upon Suraths house and committed aviolent robbery and plunder. Surath Mandal wanted to report the incident to police, butSamsuddin Molla, an influential member of the Amdhara Panchayet Samiti, prevented him fromdoing so on the plea that both Janshed Gain and Gousher Gain were the members of thePanchayet and the matter would be settled by the Samiti itself. It should be mentioned here thatKrishnapada Sardar, the President of the Amdhara Panchayet Samiti was sympathetic to SurathMandal. But he could not do anything as the majority of the members of the Samiti wereMuslims and he had to oblige the most influential member Samsuddin Molla, supported by theMuslims. Horrible as it may, due to Suraths offence of intending to report the crime to police, dacoit gangof Jamshed and Gousher committed dacoity in the house of Surath Mandal repeatedly, sixtimes in five months between January and May, 2007, plundering all their valuables and cash.When Surath approached the local Panchayet Samiti, the Panchayet, dictated by SamsuddinMolla, who was in collusion with the criminals, advised Surath to leave Bantala and settlesomewhere else. One sub-inspector, Mr. Ghosh, sympathetic to Surath and his family, helpedSurath lodge an official report with the Basanti Police Station on May 4, 2007. On the same day, to retaliate Suraths filing the case with police, the Jamshed-Gausher gangcaught hold of Suraths 14-year-old son Samrat Mandal while returning from school, draggedhim to a dark place, beat him mercilessly. They then pushed him into a ditch, poured a can ofKerosene on his head and set him on fire. The boy cried for help, nobody came to his help,given its a Muslim area. A cousin of Samrat, incidentally passing by the place, could identify theloud cry of Samrat and rushed to the spot with a few other Hindus. Samrat, trying to escape theordeal and save his life, jumped into a nearby pond, though suffered more than 60% burns.Samrat Mandal was rushed to Canning Hospital and was admitted to the Calcutta MedicalCollege Hospital, and, finally, to a private nursing home for nearly a month. Meanwhile, the sub-inspector Mr. Ghosh, sympathetic to Surath Mandals cause, was readilytransferred, replaced by a Muslim officer. After this incident, Surath Mandal sought protection and safety from higher administrative andpolice authorities, but in vain. He also got no help from the local political leaders. Failing to getassurance of security of life, honour and property, he had to move his family to the place of hisson-in-law in Vivekananda Nagar, Madhyamgram, under Barasat Police Station, in North 24Parganas district. Kanak Bala Mandal, wife of Surath Mandal, after much persuasion, succeeded in makingBasanti police authorities to start a police case (Case No. 4507, under section 34/326/307 ofIPC) on 7 May 2007. Samrat, who has lost faith on law enforcing authorities of the state and institution of justice,resignedly said: I have seen Jamshed and his brother to commit robbery in our house in myown eyes. It was the same Jamshed, who poured kerosene on my head and set me on fire. Isaid all these things to the police, but they did nothing. I do not know whether I shall be curedagain and this might be the end of my educational career. Surath Mandal told reporters: I have sold my property at Basanti and have spent the entiremoney amounting to Rs. 4 lakh to my sons treatment. I have registered complaint againstJamshed and Gouser with the Superintendent of Police, South 24 Parganas, the local MLA andthe local Panchayet Samiti. But no action has, so far, been taken; no arrests have been made.On the contrary, the culprits are still continuing their reign of terror in the locality. The life andproperty of the Hindus are not protected today. And, perhaps, I shall never be able to go toBantala again and settle there. Watch video on Samrat Mandal's interview: http://www.youtube. com/watch?v=bUz72IAD8J0 When India, violently insisted by Muslims, was partitioned in 1947 on religious grounds andMuslims got West Pakistan and East Pakistan (now Bangladesh), they had a vultures eye onthe entire north-east India. They were not satisfied with the two Pakistans. They wanted thewhole of the north-east region (undivided Assam) integrated with East Pakistan. Manul Haq Chowdhury, Jinnahs private secretary, who remained in Assam and later became aminister in Assam assembly, wrote to Jinnah in 1947: Quaid-e-Azam, wait for the next thirtyyears, I shall present Assam to Pakistan on a platter. Since then, a sinister game-plan to growmore Muslims in the north-east has been going on surreptitiously. Today, six out of the total 24 districts of Assam, namely Nagaon, Goalpara, Dhubri, Karimganj,Barpeta and Hailakanndi, have 60% Muslim population while six more, namely Bongaigaon,Kokrajhar, Kamrup, Nalbari, Darang and Cachar, have above 40% Muslims. Out of the 126assembly seats, the election of 54 MLAs depends heavily on Muslim votes. There are 28Muslim MLAs and four ministers in Assam. Hindus lost 26 lakh acres of land in Bangladesh from 1965 to 2006 says study Extract from a memorandum, submitted by Rabindra Ghosh, President of the Human RightsCommission for Bangladesh Minorities (HRCBM), on Atrocities against Minorities of Bangladeshand Investigative Reports 2008, to Shivraj Patil, Home Minister of India, on June 26, 2008.Members of the Hindu community have lost 26 million acres of land between 1965 and 2006,while an estimated 10 million Hindus were forced to leave the country from 1964 to 2001 due tocommunal conflicts perpetrated by Muslims, and deprivation caused by the Enemy (Vested)Property Act, according to a study. The study, led by Prof. Abul Barakat, was published in the form of a book, titled Deprivation ofHindu Minority in Bangladesh: Living with Vested Property's Act. It said the government has identified only seven lakh acres of vested land of which two lakhacres have been leased out and five lakh acres remain under the control of the grabbers.Below are list further incidence involving Muslims in West Bengal that would give readers howthe future of West Bengal, and India for that matter, is being shaped up: Muslim violence against Hindus in Hasnabad, North 24 Parganas In October 2009, some Muslim youths from nearby Sankhchura village came to Taki town inBasirhat subdivision of North 24 Parganas to attend Kali Puja, a Hindu festival. There theymisbehaved, which led to scuffle, and those miscreants were driven away. In retaliation, a gang of 30-35 Muslim youths from Sankhchura village came to Taki town on25.10.09, and beat up 2-3 Hindu boys and fled. In protest, 26 clubs of Taki town joined hands with 3 to 4 thousand Hindu protesters surrounderthe Taki Police Station for pressing them take strong action. Sankhchura village is a notorious for Muslim criminality and a constant headache for theadministration and local Hindus. Moreover, a number of Jihadis and ISI agents were caught bypolice from this village. Protests outside Statesman House Statesman News Service KOLKATA,Feb.7: The traffic gridlock for over four hours from 4.30 p.m.on CRAvenue andadjoining areas of the city due to protests by Muslim organisations against an article publishedin The Statesman eased in the evening today after the protestors withdrew their traffic blockadein front of Statesman House. Protestors demonstrated in front of Statesman House for thesecond successive day today and for nearly six hours until well into the evening. In the afternoon, the protestors blocked traffic on Lenin Sarani,Dorina Crossing and SNBanerjeeRoad but traffic flow returned to normal by 8.30 p.m.following a meeting betweensenior police officers and representatives of the agitators. The protestors began raising slogans and put up posters at the entrance of Statesman Housethis afternoon demanding the "arrest of the author of the article". They were referring to anopinion piece by veteran journalist Johann Hari of The Independent, London, published on TheStatesman's Perspective page on 5 February under the headline: "Why should I respect theseoppressive religions?" KolkataPolice acted with urgency and deployed a huge police contingentin front of Statesman House and the Esplanade area to thwart any untoward incident. Through the evening, various roads in north and south Kolkatabecame clogged due to thespillover effect of the traffic chaos at Esplanade as police had to divert traffic. Many commuterscomplained of being severely inconvenienced due to the disruption of traffic. Police officersspoke to representatives of the agitators repeatedly in order to pacify them but the latter werereluctant to withdraw their road blockades. Commuters were left stranded owing to the diversionof buses and many were caught in traffic snarls. Later in the day, JanabSMNoorurRehmanBarkati,ShahiImam, West Bengal, wrote to theCommissioner of KolkataPolice Mr GautamMohan Chakrabarti.His letter said: "The All IndiaMajlisE Shooraand the Muslim community is very hurt, disappointed and dejected with thevulgar and objectionable article, with references to Islam and Prophet Mohammed published inThe Statesman we express our deepest anguish and resentment at such vulgar and cheapjournalism. We request/appealfor strong and strict action against the people/journalistbehindthe article, as it tend(s) to disturb secular fabric of our state which has always been an epitomeof communal brotherhood & unity." The Statesman wrote to the Commissioner of Police thanking him for sending the newspaper acopy of the communication addressed to him by the Shahi Imam and said: "We note withanguish the sentiments expressed therein. While upholding the right of media to provide spacefor a plurality of opinion, we seek to emphasize it is not and has never been the intention of TheStatesman to defame any individual or institution or cause hurt to any community. If any actionof ours has unintentionally caused hurt to any section of society or group of people we wish toassure you that was not our intention and we have no hesitation in expressing our regret for anyunintended hurt. We will report the day's developments in our editions tomorrow and assure allcommunities of The Statesman's abiding faith in the Constitution of India and the secular fabricof our country." Why should I respect these oppressive religions? Johann Hari The right to criticise religion is being slowly doused in acid. Across the world, the small,incremental gains made by secularism ~ giving us the space to doubt and question and makeup our own minds ~ are being beaten back by belligerent demands that we respect religion. Ahistoric marker has just been passed, showing how far we have been shoved. The UNrapporteurwho is supposed to be the global guardian of free speech has had his job rewritten:to put him on the side of the religious censors. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights stated 60 years ago that a world in which humanbeings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief is the highest aspiration of the commonpeople. It was a Magna Carta for mankind and loathed by every human rights abuser on earth.Today, the Chinese dictatorship calls it Western, Robert Mugabecalls it colonialist, and DickCheneycalls it outdated. The countries of the world have chronically failed to meet it, but thedocument has been held up by the United Nations as the ultimate standard against which tocheck ourselves. Until now. Communal clashes in Maldah village: Gang rape of Hindu housewife Communal Violence erupted in Kanainagar village under Rajnagar panshayat under P.SKaliachak, Maldah district of West Bengal on last 22nd February.

Hindu Temple Burnt, Kali Icon Desecrated and Vandalized in Basirhat West Bengal 33 year old Kali Temple Attacked and Burnt; Kali murthi stripped and vagina blackened; (Posted by Hindu Samhati's International Communications Team.) At the late hours of 16th December, 2009 some unknown miscreants (suspected to be Islamicactivists) entered the 33 year old Kali temple of Kankra village of Kachua Panchayet, underBasirhat Police Station in North 24 Parganas district, stripped the murthi, or icon of Mother Kalinaked and burnt the temple. Before leaving the temple, the miscreants even tied the throat ofthe stone made murthi of the Goddess with a thick rope. The vagina of the idol was blackened.Keeping in view to the nature of the crime and mixed population of the area, one can easilyunderstand that no Hindu can do such a heinous and sacrilegious deed. The finger of suspicionis definitely pointed to the Muslim community. The village of Kachua is a popular pilgrimage place because of the famous temple of renownedsaint Sri Loknath Brahamachari. Hundreds of thousands of devotees visit this this Templethroughout the year. In this area where the Hindus have become a minority, perhaps the nexttarget is this Loknath Temple. Hindus became extremely aggrieved for this desecration of their temple and murthi. All Hindusof the village cutting across party lines jointly put a roadblock and demonstrated at BasirhatPolice Station. At the time of demonstration, local Communit Party of India (CPI) MLA NarayanMukherjee tried to divert the issue saying that the desecration of the murthi(icon) and templemust have been a deed of a mentally misbalanced person. But the Hindus rejected the idea.Police assured the Hindus that they will book the culprit. But till now no culprit has beenarrested. A few days before, the ornaments of the Kali murthi(icon) and other valuables of the templewere robbed similarly. People lodged complaints to the police station. That case too unresolved. Basirhat sub-division in West Bengal is border area with Bangladesh. It has become openground for Jehadi(Islamist) terrorists. The whole area of Basirhat Police Station becameMuslim-majority due to unabated illegal Muslim infiltration from Bangladesh. The illegal activitiesand atrocities upon Hindus have increased simultaneously. The scale of torture upon Hindushas sharply increased in recent times. The desecration of the sacred Kali temple is the latestexample. The aggrieved Hindus demonstrated in front of the local police station and blocked theroads. Communal tension rose in the area and RAF (special police force) was deployed tocontrol the situation.

Bus loot and molest in Dhantola rerunAuthor: A Staff Reporter Publication: The Telegraph Date: August 11, 2003 Passengers of a mini bus on Diamond Harbour Road were looted and the women among themallegedly molested at Mograhat in South 24-Parganas. The daring dacoity was carried out in daylight, around 10 in the morning. The looting continuedfor more than half-an-hour. But passengers said vehicles that went past their bus during theincident did not bother to stop. Some of them even saw a mobile police van go by. The cries ofhelp, defying the scare of guns, did not reach it perhaps. No arrests were reported till late this evening. Police sources said a gang of 10 dacoits armed with revolvers and daggers targeted the bus,which was on its way from Amtala to Hotor in the district. The dacoits decamped with cash and jewellery worth more than Rs 1 lakh, the police said.Passengers said the men were threatened and beaten up when they tried to resist and thewomen molested. The bus was speeding past a deserted stretch of the road near Jhinkirhat when the driver hadto slam the brakes on noticing a log blocking the way ahead of a sharp bend. As the busscreeched to a halt, armed youths crept out of roadside shrubs and moved in. On the night of February 6, a gang of about 20 men had looted two buses returning fromwedding receptions at Dhantola in Nadia. The men were forced onto the roofs at gun point andthe women looted and tormented. Four minor girls were among the six women allegedly rapedthat night. The driver of one of the buses was shot dead when he allegedly recognised one of the dacoits.A zonal CPM leader and a panchayat member of the party were arrested in connection with theincident. Today, the dacoits had their faces covered with handkerchiefs. But the passengers said theyseemed to be in their early 20s. "We could not recognise them as they were masked," saidKalidas Mondal. The dacoits were "heavily armed", added the passenger, still reeling with theshock. "We were dumfounded and too terrorised to react. They started abusing us and beat up severalpassengers," said Tapan Polley, the driver. The police, the passengers said, arrived long after the gang had left. Subdivisional police officer of Diamond Harbour Mehmood Akhtar said: "As soon as I heardabout the dacoity, I asked the force to rush to the spot."
