The print and electronic English media have conspired together against the innocent Hindus of West Bengal by completely blacking out the news regarding the savage communal attack on the Hindus carried out by the criminal Muslim elements in Murshidabad district on July 10, 2009.
Murshidabad district (Bengali:) is a district of West Bengal in eastern India. Situated on the left bank of the river Ganges, the district is very fertile. Covering an area of 5,341 km² (2,062 sq mi) and having a population 5.863 million (according to 2001 census) it is a densely populated district. The Baharampur town is the headquarters of the district.
Jinnah and Suhravardy’s Direct Action in Calcutta City on August 16, 1946More than 12 Hindus have been killed and hundreds have been injured including 10 Policemen and one DSP rank Police Officer in Murshidabad District. Two village markets and hundreds of Hindu houses and Hindu shops were looted and burnt. Firing between the Police and Muslim rioters were going on for more than 48 hours till July 12’ 09. BSF and CRPF men have been deployed to help the local police and the RAF. Our English Newspapers and TV Channels have completely suppressed this news. All of them seem to be more concerned about the fight that is now going on between the Muslim Chinese and the non-Muslim Han Chinese in Urumqi, the Capital of Western Xinjiang region, in China.
Most important fact that should be noted is that Murshidabad is a Muslim majority district bordering Bangladesh and unauthorized infiltration of Muslims — the favourite vote banks of CPI(M) and Sonia Congress parties — has been rampant from 1980. When the Congress party was losing it’s political hold in Assam and in the North-Eastern region, the Congress Government of Indira Gandhi deliberately brought in the ILLEGAL MIGRANTS (Determination by Tribunals) Act of 1983 (IMDT Act) to create an endless flow of Muslim vote banks largely consisting of Congress sponsored Muslim infiltrators from Bangladesh. This anti-national Act brought in by Indira Gandhi was struck down by the Supreme Court of India in July 2005. Muslims became the most favoured citizens of India under the IMDT Act of 1983 because under this Act legal rights were conferred upon Bangladeshi Muslims to settle down in Assam or any other part of India and become Indian citizens. On the other hand, in a dastardly act of reverse communal discrimination, the Indians from the rest of India were denied the right to settle and vote in the State of Jammu and Kashmir. The general approach of the Government of India in all matters relating to the Hindus in absolute majority is to oscillate in a deliberate manner between policies and programmes that are specially anti-Hindu, specifically anti-Hindu, particularly anti-Hindu, generally anti-Hindu and generically anti-Hindu.
The Muslims were in minority in Murshidabad District on August 15, 1947. Today they are in absolute majority. The fact that is being deliberately suppressed by both the Government of India and the Marxist Government of West Bengal on the one hand and the nationally / socially irresponsible Media, both print and electronic, is that in many of the Muslim-majority pockets of West Bengal today, the politically pampered Muslims are behaving in the most the intolerant and oppressive manner in which they behaved towards the Hindus in West Pakistan and East Pakistan during and after the dark days of partition. The recent Muslim- Hindu riots in West Bengal….
Let me give some more specific facts about the recent communal riots in Murshidabad District. All the trouble started in Jhaubona High School in Jhaubona village coming under Nawda police station in Beldanga Sub Division in Murshidabad district. Out of a total of 1000 students in this school, about 50% are Muslim students. For long the Muslim students have been demanding to offer Friday Namaz inside the school. BUT SCHOOL MANAGEMENT AND THE HINDU STUDENTS RESISTED IT APPREHENDING THAT IT WILL CREATE A VIRTUAL MOSQUE INSIDE THE SCHOOL. Consequently, the furious Muslim students made objection against Saraswati Puja in the school and the school management has been compelled to stop Saraswati puja last year in the school. Suddenly in a fit of passion, all the Muslim students in this school unilaterally planned to offer Friday Namaz on July 10, 2009 by force inside the school without any permission from the Head Master or the School Management. Hindu students protested against the move to convert the school into a make-shift mosque. As a result altercation started at 12 noon on July 10, 2009 between the two groups of students.

Muslims were totally prepared for an armed rioting. Through cell phone they spread the false message that Hindu students attacked Muslim students in the school. Within 10-15 minutes, thousands of Muslims led by the students of nearby Trimohini Madrasa rushed to the school. They attacked the Hindu students in the school. They also indulged in acts of violence in the big village market of Trimohini. Many Hindu shops in the Trimohini market were burnt and looted. Further the armed Muslim rioters attacked the three Hindu villages of Jhaubona, Trimohini and Darapara. Many Hindu houses were burnt and looted in these three villages. According to reliable reports, in one house 4 Hindus died in the fire, including a father and his daughter who were burnt alive. In all, more than 12 Hindus have been killed and more than 150 Hindus have been seriously injured. The injured persons were admitted to Baharampur and Amtala hospitals. I have disturbing news to the effect that all the people living in the Hindu villages coming under Nawda and Hariharpara Police Stations are keeping themselves awake through out the night. They are scared of a possible Muslim attack upon their villages.As noted earlier, the Murshidabad district is a Muslim majority district. All the areas coming under the jurisdiction of 3 Police Stations in Beldanga Sub Division – Beldanga, Nawda and Hariharpara – are Muslim majority areas. Beldanga Sub Division is a communally explosive area bordering Bangladesh.
Mr. Pranab Mukherjee has been elected from Janghipur Parliamentary Constituency in Murshidabad District. The area where the recent communal riots have taken place do not come in Pranab Mukherjee’s constituency. The affected area (Beldanga Division) comes in Baharampur Parliamentary Constituency. Before the elections, Pranab Mukherjee had given a political assurance to the Muslim voters in his constituency that he would take immediate action to open a branch of the Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) in the Murshidabad District in the event of his being elected as MP from that area. Now that he has been elected, as a gratitude to the Muslims of this district, Pranab Mukherjee announced in his finance Budget in parliament that he would allocate a huge sum of money to establish a campus of Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) in this district. All of us are aware that this AMU had spearheaded the separatist movement for creation of PAKISTAN in pre 1947 years.
But tragedy is that a few days ago, Pranab Mukherjee visited his Murhsidabad Constituency on Sunday, the 12th of July, 2009 to personally announce this decision to his Muslim voters. He was fully aware of the fact of the communal rioting which had taken place) on Friday, the 10th of July, 2009 in Murhsidabad District (portion of the District not coming under his Constituency) which had left so many Hindus dead and many grievously wounded. ‘And yet for reasons best known to himself, he did not care to visit the riot-affected area in the same Murshidabad District.!!’Seeing what is happening to the Hindus today in Murshidabad District and other areas of West Bengal, I cannot help observing that the Government of West Bengal and the Government of India are acting in unison to re-enact the same violent drama of ‘Direct Action’ which was jointly enacted by Mohammad Ali Jinnah and HS Suhravardy, the then prime Minister of UNDIVIDED BENGAL, on August 16, 1946 in Calcutta City.
Mohammad Ali Jinnah’s call for Direct Action on July 27, 1946
On the 27th of July 1946, Mohammad Ali Jinnah gave a call to the Muslims to observe August 16, 1946 as “Direct Action Day”. Jinnah declared: “The Muslims of India wouldn’t rest contented with any thing less than the immediate establishment of independent and fully sovereign State of Pakistan. ... Now the time has come for the Muslim Nation to resort to Direct action. ... We have taken a most historic decision. Never before in the whole life history of the Muslim League did we do anything except by constitutional methods. Today we have said good-bye to constitutional methods. Throughout the painful negotiations the two parties with whom we bargain held a pistol at us — one with power and machine-guns behind it and the other with non-co-operation and the threat to launch mass civil disobedience. The situation must be met. We also have a pistol.’
