Results of 16 th Lok Sabha
Election have brought forth a historic decision by Indians on the whole; NDA
led by BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party) has achieved an astounding success through
securing an absolute majority. If BJP is taken into consideration apart, the
party has attained its biggest victory ever since its formation in 1980. What
has been its impact in Bengal then? Even if BJP has been able to wrest two MP
seats and also raise its voting share in the state considerably, Trinamool
Congress by procuring 34 seats has also penned a historic success. What would
be the fate of nation and state hence depends on BJP and TMC respectively; certainly
Hindu Samhati is not related to it. But the reign of terror afflicting the
state with a wave of bloodshed must be contemplated highly.
Right to Vote is a rational corollary
of the Fundamental Right to Freedom of Speech and Expression and forms the
basis of any successful democracy like India. You can capture the power only if
you emerge victorious in the election and this basic notion is known to all
political parties. That’s why, violence during election or following it is no
new development in the Indian scenario. But the picture, at this time, is
different in Bengal. On the word of political pundits and other experts, the
minority vote bank has played a substantial role to the astounding success of
Trinamool Congress in the state. Trinamool leadership agrees to this view also and
exploiting this favorable situation, minority hooligans are inflicting the
worst persecution on Hindus across the length and breadth of the state. Even if
this is the cruel reality, criminals are trying to paint the rush of tortures
on Hindus in a political color and Trinamool party’s flag is used hence
rampantly. The situation at vast areas in the district of North and South 24 Paraganas,
areas close to the international India-Bangladesh border, Usti, Falta, Mograhat,
areas close to the international border in North Bengal is worst; Hindu
villagers have become worst victims to relentless attacks of Islamists. Since
Islamists are using TMC’s flags, administration is scared to keep them in
custody. Shajahan Sheikh, Salim, Shaukat Mullah or Abdul Barik have become
trusted lieutenants of TMC. Nevertheless, they used to be vanguards of CPIM during
Left Front’s hegemony; it has got to be kept in mind. With the change of guard
in 2011, these criminals also joined Trinamool brigade. Earlier they used to torment
Hindus by using Red flags; now the same is being done with Trinamool Congress’ silent
blessings. Hindus have no respite in rural Bengal. It’s the high-time for all to
grasp this brutal truth.
It’s also the time for present
rulers in Bengal to get hold of another truth; they didn’t emerge victorious
with minority votes only. Had Hindus not supported them wholeheartedly, triumph
would have continued to remain a victory for them. As a result, the state
government must step in to save Hindus from Islamists as well as atrocities of
police. Culprits, to be precise, ran amok in the areas of Haroa, Sandeshkhali,
Usti, Mograhat and Bangaon for the last few days. Hindus are under a reign of
terror there while many of them have fled as well. Police and administration
must succor these helpless people and restore law fast.
There
is no skepticism with the affection of Chief Minister to Bengal. But her imprudence
has turned the rural Bengal to a casualty. While attacks on women are on the
rise, lands in Bengal are being grabbed stealthily but steadily by hostile
forces. Only the Chief Minister can save the state from such a crisis. She has
an innate capacity to change courses of history. The same can be done here too
but wisdom must be there at the same time. We do appeal to her to save Bengal.
