The Spectre of Terror: Bangladeshi Militancy in West Bengal

  The presence of Bangladeshi terrorist groups in West Bengal has emerged as a grave concern for national security. Intelligence reports and sporadic incidents point towards the infiltration of these extremist organizations, primarily originating from Bangladesh. This disturbing trend poses a multifaceted threat to India's internal security, economic stability, and regional peace. The porous border between India and Bangladesh offers fertile ground for the movement of militants. The lack of adequate border infrastructure and manpower makes it difficult to effectively monitor and control cross-border activities. Exploiting this vulnerability, terrorist groups like the Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) and the Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami Bangladesh (HuJI-B) have established a foothold in the state. The presence of these groups has been linked to various acts of violence, including bombings, targeted killings, and recruitment drives. Their aim is to destabilize the region, instigate...

Begging bowls for Kolkata doctors says Bangladeshi leader

 Against the backdrop of the strained relations between India and Bangladesh with the minority Hindu community being persecuted brutally, a Bangladeshi BNP leader's bizarre remarks that doctors in West Bengal would be forced to take to the streets with begging bowls in the absence of Bangladeshi patients have evolved strong reactions from Kolkata based doctors. A number of doctors have rubbished the claims made by the Bangladeshi leader saying that it would only have an adverse impact on the Bangladeshis patients who flock to the city hospitals in large numbers to get specialised treatment. With Bangladesh lacking a suitable medical infrastructure to cater to the comprehensive treatment of its nationals, the comments by the BNP leader is totally misleading. With the Government of India imposing severe restrictions on issuing visas to citizens of the neighbouring country, the number of patients from Bangladesh coming to Kolkata for medical assistance has sharply declined and a major...

West Bengal minister propagates theory of Muslim supremacy

 Kolkata mayor and West Bengal Urban Development minister Firhad Hakim's nefarious comments at an event in Kolkata where he implied that with the Muslim population in West Bengal at 33 percent and an overall Muslim count of 17 percent overall in the country, the minority community could easily out number the populace of the majority community through the grace of Allah is not only repulsive but speaks of a sinister design to change the demographic nature of India. He also urged those present at the event not to rely on candlelight marches seeking justice for their grievances but increase their population to such an extent so that they can seek redress to their problems. Such fanatic remarks emanating from a minister belonging to the ruling dispensation in West Bengal  which often describes itself as a champion of securalism is totally unwarranted and ought to condemned by all those who portray West Bengal as an oasis of communal harmony. This is not the first instance of Firha...

The nonsensical claims of Bangladesh and Jihadi elements

 The ridiculous and somewhat comical utterances by a group of Bangladeshi Army veterans leading an anti India campaign asserting with great force that they were well trained to grab Kolkata in a matter of four days is not only absurd but also points to the lack of understanding about the power of their country's armed forces against India which boasts of a much superior army capable of challenging every major country as far as armed conflict is concerned. This is just a diabolical ploy to whip up anti India sentiments in a bid to provoke the radical Islamists to continue their assault on the minority Hindus of Bangladesh. The widespread sentiments of hatred being exhibited by Jihadi forces in Bangladesh to attack India is really a matter of grave concern. The way in which a religious leader has urged Bangladeshi Musligms to keep lethal weapons in the form of swords ready to butcher Indians is very shocking and points to a sick mindset. His contention that if a Bangladeshi Muslim ca...

Bangladesh and its obnoxious tale of betrayal

 The minority Hindu community in Bangladesh has been subjected to unprecedented violence by the Muslim populace which are in a majority, with no signs of the prevailing situation altering for the better in the near future for the Hindus living in constant state of fear and intimidation. The provocative speeches emanating from Bangladesh against India have crossed all limits. The disgraceful and insulting way in which a Bangladesh National Party leader, Rahul Kabir Rizvi has urged the people of Bangladesh to boycott products that are made in India bears testimony to the ungrateful nation's growing hatred towards India. The BNP leader in order to emphatically put forward his point forcefully, set afire to a saree purportedly belonging to his wife which he claimed was an Indian product. The leader also revealed that he was willing to skip a meal everyday if the situation warranted in the event of the people of his country boycotting products coming from India. Such acts of extreme dis...

India and its weak strategy to counter Hindu oppression in Bangladesh

 The Indian government's weak response to the persecution and protracted assaults on the Hindu minority community as well as other minority groups in Bangladesh is quite concerning with no concrete strategy emanating from the Indian side to combat the barbarities inflicted on the minorities in a country which is now directly under the control of Islamic radicals. The denial of legal assistance to Chinmoy Krishna Das an ISCKON monk violates the basic principles of  fundamental human rights that an individual is entitled to in a democratic nation. Not a single lawyer dared to fight for Chinmoy Krishna Das in a Bangladesh court following an open threat by a group of Bangladeshi lawyers which stated that any lawyer who represented the ISCKON devotee in the court would face severe consequences and even called for the ISCKON monkk's capital punishment for creating unrest after his unlawful arrest by the Bangladeshi authorities. Such brazen acts of targetting an individual because of...

President of PDP Mehbooba Mufti and her absurd views

 Former Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir and President of People's Democratic Front of India, Mehmooba Mufti's observation that the conditions prevailing in Bangladesh and India in terms of persecution of minorities is similar in nature is totally unfortunate and does not speak volumes for the truth that is there for everyone to see. Her irrational comparison of the situation in Bangladesh comes at a time when the minorities in Bangladesh including the Hindus, Sikhs, Christians and Buddhists have been systematically targetted and assaulted by rogue Islamist radicals that are at the helm of affairs in Bangladesh. By comparing the Sambhal incident in which members from the minority community attempted to violate a court ordered survey of a mosque in compliance with the existing law of the land she has only made a mockery of her own statement. Her views that protesters were brutally targetted by the administration for defending their rightful demand of standing up against a tri...
