Hindu Temple Vandalized, Religious Festival Attacked by Bengal Islamists.

The onslaught of resurgent and fanatic Islamic faith (thanks to West Bengal’s Islamic custodians like Trinamool Congress) on Hindus in Bengal is unabated and as part of the same series, the age-old Shiva Temple at Pagla Tala in Haringhata P.S. (Police Station) area of Nadia District, famous for holding the heritage rural religious congregation named “Pagol Thakurer Mela” for centuries right from the time of Raja Krishnachandra Roy, becomes the latest target of the Muslims.

On 28.03.10 at around 7 p.m, when the Hindu congregation was at full blast, a violent crowd of approx 400 Muslim goons strongly-armed, with sinister designs, usurped the vicinity and ransacked the entire gathering along with local shops and the Shiva Temple (Pagol Thakurer Mandir) was  also destroyed alongwith the idols of Godess Kali , Laxmi , Saraswati , Lord Krishna and Ganesh.

The Muslim mob also severely damaged and looted the shops (25 nos. approx.) of the Hindu people, fatally injured the Hindu people and looted their belongings including money, ornaments, mobile phones, etc. They looted 26 bicycles of the visitors, 20 plastic chairs and 40 bamboo sticks used for barricades of the mela.

As a mark of protest against the humiliation of Hindus, the angry Hindu community leaders staged a “Dharna” blocking the nearby roads for hours. On 30/03/10 morning, local Hindus formed 4 to 6 groups of 300 to 400 people in each group and blocked 5 roads leading to the Khudar Mela, about 3 km away from this temple, organised by the Muslims. The protest and road-block by the retaliating Hindus was so successful that the Khudar Mela of the Muslims, which was scheduled for that day was unable to take place. Tension prevails in the local area still now.

Eleven Hindus viz. 1) Sunil Singhadar (right eye fatally damaged), (2) Jagadish Goldar, (3) Sankar Sarkar, (4) Joydeb Roy, (5) Sujoy Mandal, (6) Uddhab Goldar, (7) Sunil Singha, (8) Ajit Goldar, (9) Tapan Roy, (10) Manik Goldar and (11) Panchugopal Mandal were severely injured by the Muslim thugs in the first attack.

Among those, Ajit Goldar and Sunil Singhadar were mercilessly beaten up in the Mela Committee office. The Muslim rampaging mob beaten up Manik Goldar and looted wrist watch, mobile phone and money from him. Beside the above mentioned persons, many unknown temple disciples and volunteers were mercilessly beaten up by the fundamentalist Muslims.

As per available report, 1) Sadek, (2) Masood, (3) Sabbir Goldar s/o, Alimuddin, (4) Kabir Goldar s/0, Alimuddin, (5) Bilal Mandal s/o, Jhuro Mandal, (6) Haider Ali Goldar s/o, Majnu Goldar, (7) Ratan Goldar s/o, Majnu,(8) Bishe Goldar s/o, Deedar, (9) Rabbari Mandal s/o, Haran, (10) Altaf Goldar s/o, Mamlabox, (11) Mafroj Goldar s/o, Mamlabox,(12) Moynak Mandal s/o, Mansur, (13) Alamat Bag s/o, Late Golam Bag, (14) Laltu Goldar, (15) Haider Ali Goldar, (16) Majnu Goldar, (17) Mainoor, (18) Ijjal, (19) Mobijul, (20) Firoj, (21) Rafik, (22) Raju and others were leading the Muslim goons (read soldiers of Allah) to hurt the Hindus, shouting the slogans : Narayee Takbeer, Allaha ho Akbar !!  Some fire arms were also shown to the Hindus to terrorize the Hindus in the spot. Local Administration and Police were completely failure to keep and maintain the peace at the material point of the time of  this “Mini Jihad” against the Hindus.

When they were destroying the idols of the temple, Smt. Renuka Bakshi, Priestess of the temple protested. She was threatened that she would be killed if she did not keep quiet.

The attack started at about 7 pm. Mela Committee repeatedly informed the Haringhata Police Station over phone. But the reply came from the police (a) there was not enough police personnel, (b) they have no car to go, (c) there was no petrol/diesel to run the jeep, etc. etc.

About 5 hours after the incident started, police came. Seeing the seriousness of the incident, they arrested 14 Muslims from nearby Muslim village Mitrapur Muslim Para. But under pressure of local Trinamool Congress leaders Biswajit Roy, Nemai Das and Chitta Das, they all were released next day without registering any case so far.

Police took away with them all the broken idols to the police station ignoring the objection of local people. This act of police is totally irreligious and against the rituals of Sanatan Dharma. The local police is very much conspicuous to destroy all the evidences of Islamic Torture made upon Hindu Temples, Hindu Idols and Hindu people gathered in the Mela in general.

On 31st March when a Representative Team of Hindu Samhati led by Advocate B.N.Roy and Sujit Maity thoroughly visited the area and  went to the Haringhata Police Station, police absolutely refused to give them any information. Officer in Charge of Haringhata Police Station and Investigating Officer (I.O.) of the case did not meet with the members of the team.

The Hindus of the area are feeling absolutely insecure and threatened. An exodus of Hindus from the area is just a matter of time. With the other 09 districts in West Bengal, Nadia has also been declared by the State Government, as Muslim populated district with special facilities for Muslim development.
