Muslim Radicals Desperate to Destroy Hindu Temple, Construct Mosque in Baruipur

Islamists are never ready to tolerate the existence of Hindus even and how can their hatred or anti-Hindu view be got apparent on December 16, 2012 when hundreds of them gathered at Shani Battalar More in Ramnagar, P.S. Baruipur, District: 24 Paraganas (North) at 7.30 am to destruct temple of Lord Shani (of almost 100 years’ old) and construct a mosque.

The temple falls within a PWD area, alongside PMGSY (Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana) leading to a Muslim majority area in the environs. And owing to the same, Islamists (local) have got a shot in the arm and are hell-bent to acquire the entire locality. A bus depot (Shani Battalar More Yatrinibas) does also exist there. In recent months, Islamists have turned the bus depot into a club virtually; a namaz room has also been built within the club and what is more imperative, interior decoration has begun to turn the same room along with the club into a mosque.

The temple exists next to the mosque. Islamists are not ready to accept its existence and this has been the basis of Hindu-Muslim tension for years. Islamists have been trying to bump off the temple; Hindus have been offering valiant defence in return also.

Now, to call the Hindu defence a halt forever, on December 16, 2012 hundreds of armed Islamist youths gathered in the morning to construct the mosque forcefully. The gathering did not comprise Muslim youths only; Muslim women were also perceived to take part in strength. While Muslim youths were displaying all forms of lethal weapons, Muslim women were armed with powder of red peeper.

Local Hindus, to stop the Islamic aggression, phoned the local police station lots but at every time, IC of P.S. Baruipur – Subrata Kangsabanik – turned their helpless pleas down. Later, Hindus getting desperate, phoned Mr. Partha Acharya, SDO and thanks to his timely interference the crisis subsided. Following his orders, Subrata Kangsabanik, though reluctantly, went to the spot and restrain Islamists.

But the crisis has not come to an end. Islamists are resolute to go on with their agenda and attain the objective.

With this end in view, on December 17, 2012, a large mob of Islamists ravaged local party office of Trinamool Congress. Attackers were heard to say that Muslims would do anything to build the mosque and destruct the temple. They also said that something enough to stun entire India would happen soon and Hindus would not be spared (Hinduder chulkani hoyeche, chulke debo).
