Kolkata: More than a dozen policemen were injured while about 30 vehicles were torched after a massive Muslim protest rally turned violent in West Bengal’s Malda district on Sunday.

The crowd was protesting certain alleged derogatory comments on Prophet Mohammed made by Bharat Hindu Mahasabha leader Kamlesh Tiwari.

Protestors had blocked National Highway 34 and train services were disrupted for a couple of hours as the protesters ransacked the nearby Khaltipur station on the main railway line. Violence erupted when a bus was trying to negotiate past the crowd on National Highway 34. As the passengers got off the bus, the protesters burnt it down, The Indian Express reported.

"There was a rally of about 2.5 lakh people, which took an ugly turn. About 25 vehicles, including some police vans, were set on fire. Policemen were beaten up but there was no severe injury. I have heard of one person sustaining a bullet injury but there is no official confirmation of it,” Additional Superintendent of Police Dilip Hazra said.

Violence spread from a rally organised by the Anjuman Ahle Sunnatul Jamat (ASJ). However, an ASJ official later claimed that “outsiders” had masterminded the rampage.

A little later, another BSF vehicle coming from Malda was also set ablaze. The mob then turned towards the nearby Kaliachak Police Station. The protesters drove out the policemen and set a part of the police station on fire, including the barracks, eyewitnesses said.

Beating Policemen, driving the Policemen and setting a Police station on fire along with a BSF vehicle .

A Common Man would be a sitting duck against these criminals in Mamta Didi's Bengal.
 
Peaceful religion. That's the first thing that came into my mind. And off course those pathetic Hindu Maharaja leaders
 
Dont know where will all this lead India towards in the future.
 
Just for curiosity. What a muslim should do if a kafir insults the prophet.
 
Wonder where are those Muslim celebrities talking about the growing intolerance in India.
 
Police got whipped , what a joke. Talk about the law and order in the state.
 
Why are we surprised? A similar Muslim mob burned 400 Hindu homes 2 years ago and authorities and media did zilch. No award waapsi, nothing. Let's hope Modi ji changes the tide.
 
Funny enough when MLA leader Owaisi called Hindu gods most diguating names in front of 1 lakh crowd, no Hindus went around slapping or burning stuff. This is when India is a majority Hindu. Honestly I really wanted someone to just go and slap Owaisi but I guess Hindus in general are soft
 
Insulting God/Prophet/Invisible Skyman ---> Can result in buring down vehiles, buildings and public property.

Daily defecating on streets, pollution, poverty, population growth ---> No one bats their eye lid. Its just how Indians roll.

Incredible India.

Does God or Prophet or Gods really need people to defend them? If they need people to defend their honor, they are not really Gods or Prophets.

I do not care about other Muslim countries and how their citizens are destroying them. They will deal with their own problems.
Lets worry about India and its incredible problems.
 
According to media , a curfew has been imposed to pacify the situation.

Of course only Modi can deal with this.

It was a riot. 3rd world countries aren't short of people who are willing to kill and die for revenge/religion. It was a failure of Indian society and it's values. I won't blame Modi for it.
 
There needs to be serious consideration by authorities about what needs to be done to control these extremists in India.Such incidents are rising in Bengal.
 
it's funny sl gets a bad rap for muslim sinhalaese relations when the worst that has happened is a mosque got stoned (along with a few stores) 2 years ago.

Polarization of society, Muslims living in special Ghettos cutoff from the rest of the country is the major problem.
Christians in India do not live in special areas. You can find them distributed in all parts of the city and town. Unfortunately Muslims tend to live in closed areas and most are poor. Youth are jobless and seek religion as refuge. The brainwashing by religious preachers also do not help.

Though most Muslims are peaceful, all it takes is a few radicalized ones to start a riot.

Its always the poor Muslims that suffer while the rich ones are happy and they do not seem to care. Politicians like Owaisis take full advantage of peoples miseries.

I am not 100% sure, but I think Muslims always lived in special areas in all cities and towns.

I wonder if this was the case when Mughals were ruling India too?

I am not sure but i think Mughals were Muslims and by the right of them being rulers they could live anywhere. But i would understand that during that time Hindus, Sikhs would be living in low income areas.

The Prophet PBUH went to a town, Taif, outside Makkah in the early days of Islam to bring the message of Islamand was greeted with insults, words and stones. He was so physically hurt that he was bleeding from his feet iirc. When offered to destroy the valley, he said No, and prayed for the inhabitants of the town instead.

Similarly an old woman in Makkah used to obstruct his path everyday and would throw trash and other things to put him off. She did this for many days. One day she did not do the usual and the Prophet pbuh got concerned as to why and upon enquiry found out she was very sick. He went and took care of her and prayed for her health.

Many other examples, where when Islam and the Prophet was insulted or attacked, the Prophet responded with love and peace.

This is the example our Prophet set for Muslims that when non-Muslims attack or insult your religion, you respond peacefully to make them realize the error of their ways.

Might very well be that Hindus and Sikhs lived in low income Ghettos during Mughal rule. If that is so, even Mughals failed to integrate all the communities.

Islamic culture and religion is so different from Hindu/Sikh/Buddhist/Jain culture. Probably it was hard for people to accept each other.

What do you call "culture" ? Are Punjabi Sikhs, Gujju Jains or Tamil Hindus of the same culture ? Also, who's closer to a Marathi Brahmin (Chitpavan) : a Kashmiri Pandit or a Dalit from Maharashtra ? Quite ironic that you adopt a "two nation theory" reading of more deeper cultural matters, close to sounding like those ummahtic Muslims.

Punjabi/Sindhi Muslims ("Pakistanis") are as Indians as the rest.
 
Amazing how this has been brushed under the carpet by Mamata Banerjee and her state government.

That is the right approach. Why make headlines so that it will be used by anti muslim bigots to further their agenda. Just deal with it firmly but silently.

No.They are trying.But it has caught media attention now.BJP is playing it up and so is the left.Center is sending a probe team to Malda and unlike the team of MPs they cant stop the probe team.If the probe is handed over to NIA,then it would be serious trouble.
 
Not surprised with such incidents happening in Bengal to be honest . Isnt Bengal one of the states where the Muslim population has grown very fast according to the Census report? Quite expected.

Yes, muslims will leave a muslim majority country to live in india, because india is safer for muslims.

So many mechanics in Chennai are illegal immigrants from Bangladesh.I personally know 4 working in garages and 2 of them in furniture shops.
 
Also a lot of young girls from BD in India as sex workers and living n deplorable conditions . We'd be doing them a favour by sending them back home

You will not get threads on him.
 
He should not have made public comments on someone else's religion. It is not safe anywhere. You have to put forward your views in a nice manner.

Isn’t democracy allows freedom of speech?
If someone says against Hinduism then it’s democracy and someone says against Islam then he or she shouldn’t have said it? Why double standards?

IMO democracy comes with responsibility and that is to live in harmony and support unity. We can only promote democracy if it’s implemented without any religious or regional sentiments, until then it’s a broken system with lot of flaws.

Please note I’m not in any way suggesting that anyone should promote disrespecting anyone’s faith. Everyone are different and should be respected as long as they are not shoving down everyone’s throat.

I am all for free speech. It works in civilized countries like West. India is a 3rd world intolerant society.

Anyways, I hope religion stupidity dies off soon. The invisible sky man mania has caused severe destruction to human societies for thousands of years.

I believe God/Allah/Bhagwan exist. I personally keep my faith within me. Even my gf doesn’t know much about my faith as I hardly speak of. She is Hindu and I’m
Muslim and we both get along nicely. Both of us despise Indian society how it is ingrained with stupid ideology that effects everyone’s life over nothing.

Freedom of speech is really unworkable theory that isn’t practical. Even in west there are lot of things you can’t get away saying out in public without any consequences. In reality, freedom of speech comes with a responsibility that is to prevent hurting sentiments of anyone in a society. This stupidity isn’t going to die anytime soon.
 
Everyone in this case needs to be punished strictly. From the mob who destroyed public property and taxpayers money, to the people who committed murder.

The guy who died should have been tried as per the law for hurting religious sentiments (don't know what he said, so if he did hurt there's a law which prohibits it as well).

This whole taking justice into own hand is farcical and government needs to act strictly against these people.

He was in jail for 2 years. The Akhilesh govt invoked the National Security Act againist him. It was only after the Allahabad HC quashed the NSA, that he got bail.
 
This incident is the example why more and more hindus are polarising.

The extremist islamists believe they can establish the primacy of islam in a country of 83% non muslims. They have been supported by the politicians in the past.

Now it seems hindus across the caste horizon are now voting for the Bjp. This is a political signal to the parties that while everyone has equal rights appeasement wont be tolerated. That no amount of minority votes can give you the govt unless hindus too are voting in large numbers.



In terms of elections, anyone who can corner 50 to 60% non muslim votes, will easily win. No amount of muslim votes will help them. This has been proven across elections since 2014.

Jamaat e Ulema e Hind will officially fight the legal case of the 5 accused in the Kamlesh Tiwari assassination.

https://swarajyamag.com/insta/top-i...is-arrested-killers-to-provide-full-legal-aid

No one will utter a word condemning this. But if BJP leader helps the accused in cow lynching, its a big issue.

This is the hypocrisy because of which BJP will continue to garner votes.
