Haindava Keralam - global community of dedicated Hindu Keralites with a peace mission
- From 14th April Communal Riot started in Panchthupi village and surrounding area of the village under BURWAN Police Station of Kandi sub division of Murshidabad district.
This Panchthupi village is a very big village consisting of 18 paras (localities).
The clash started when some Muslim boys spat on the Hindu devotees of Shiva on the day of Charak Puja. These devotees were drinking water from a tube well. The devotees protested resulting in clashes between two groups. Some people from both sides were injured. - Peace Committee was formed taking representatives from both communities.
But, on 16th April, suddenly about 300 – 400 Muslims attacked the Hindus. Many Hindu houses and shops were looted and destroyed. Hindu houses were bomb charged indiscriminately. Naru Gopal Mukherjee’s house in Achoa Para and one ex elected Pradhan of Dakshin Para were damaged in the bombing by the Muslims. Many Hindus were injured. - In this attack, Muslims from another village, named Godapara on the other side of the river Mayurakshi (now dry) joined the attackers.
In this large scale bombing, one Hindu youth of 22 years age Sujit Ghosh has been killed at about 11 am on 16.04.10. The bomb was thrown directly on the back of him.
On the same day morning (16.04.10), the Dak Bunglow Market, about 6 km distant from Panchthupi village, was attacked by the Muslim miscreants. - Hindus are apprehensive what will happen when he police force will leave the place.
In this, the District Magistrate (D.C.) Mr. Parvez Siddiqi is playing a dirty role to misuse administration in favour of Muslim hooligans. - He has made it a point to offer Namaz every Friday noon in different Mosques of the Baharampur town and Murshidabad dist. He particularly chooses those mosques which are not visited by many Muslims. His intention is to popularise that mosque and to give encouragement and inspiration to the Mullahs and Imams of those unpopular mosques.
- Hindus are extremely scared as they know that they live in a de-facto Pakistan. In fact, in 1947, since 15 August, Pakistani Flag hoisted for three days in this district.
