Hindu social activist and businessman shot dead and chopped ghastly by suspected Islamist goons in West Bengal.
The deceased Kartik Chandra Methia was
known as a social worker in his locality and had good relations with
various social and political organizations. Apart from that he also
maintained his faith on various Hindu Organisations like Bharat
Sevashran Sangha, Goudiya Mission, Vishwa Hindu Parishad and used to
donate various rural Hindu functions and various social welfare
activities. He was also the Secretary of Sahararhat Businessmen’s
Association. Mr. Methia was a extraordinary man with profound courage
who stood as a stonewall before Islamic expansionism in the locality. It
has been known that Mr. Methia opposed an Islamic ‘Jalsa’ in a ground
traditionally maintained as ‘Rash Math’ in the locality, where local
Muslims reportedly were trying to build a mosque. As the Jamaat-e-Islami
supporters were failed to erect any Mosque in the Hindu place of ‘Rash
Math’ due to resistance of local Hindu mass led by Kartik Chandra
Methia, the perpetrators were supposed to have a plan to clear the main
hurdles for their Islamic goal. Mr Methia has left his widowed wife, three daughters and other members of the bereaved family.
The mortal body of deceased Kartik
Methia was cremated on Sunday night as per Hindu rituals at Sarswati
Burning Ghat at Falta under police protection when the protesters
lifted their agitation after getting the assurance of arrest of the
perpetrators within three days by the police agencies.
Hundreds of BJP activists led by Amaresh
Mukherjee, Nitish Mondal and Abhijit Das offered floral writhe to the
mortal body of Mr Methia and conveyed deep condolence to the bereaved
family.
The shopkeepers of Sahararhat kept their
shops closed on Sunday as mark of mourning for the untimely death of
their friend in need.
Sri Amaresh Mukherjee, an educationist
and a senior key person of Falta Literature Association narrates the
entire matter as a pre-election violence as the public says that the
deceased person denied to give any donation to any political party
connected with Muslim appeasements. It is heard that Mr Methia had a
rough altercation with some Muslims in the last week over the issue of
wearing Muslim dress and keeping unusual relations with Muslim leaders
by the present CM of West Bengal, Miss Mamata Banerjee. Those Muslims
came to the confectionery shop of Mr Methia to get donation for an
Islamic jalsa. Mr. Methia refused them in a straight way.
Though whole situation is grief stricken, the Hindu wrath can strike
hard at any moment if the police and administration are found more
callous and impotent. The locales apprehend that some Islamic agencies
are distributing both money and arms to strengthen the Islamic environs
so that the Hindus can be evicted from their homes and hearths from
Falta and Diamond Harbour -II Block. The Hindus of nearby Magrahat – II
Block have already become a pity minority and the Hindus of Blocks like
Magrahat – I (Usthi) and Diamond Harbour – I, are fighting hard to
retain their slight majority against the Islamic expansionism yet. The
ruling parties in West Bengal have been always extending their favours
to the Muslims to gain from Muslim Vote Bank.Post Script:
