Jijia Tax Upon Hindu Pilgrims in Ganga Sagar.
About 4 lakhs Hindus took holy dip in the confluence of Ganga Sagar with in 14th January this year at Maha Samkaranti Mela at Ganga Sagar. Hindus from every corner of India and Abroad gathered there with a strong devotion and firm belief that the River Ganga, mother of Indian tradition and culture has the power to give emancipation to the mankind through a holy dip in this auspicious occasion.
The non-believer Communist Government in West Bengal imposed pilgrimage Tax @ Rs.5/- only upon every pilgrim reaching there. The reminiscence of Jijia Tax under Islamic Rule still active here through the extrusion of money from the Hindu Tirtha Yatris in many ways. The Normal fare for every conveyance like Buses, Treckers, Taxis has been doubled or more than that for this period for the Hindu Pilgrims particularly. For example, when the normal fare from Kolkata to Lot 8 by bus varies from Rs. 40/- to Rs. 45/- , now the syndicates take Rs.60/- or much for this time from the innocent Hindu Pilgrims. In the Island the bus fare has been increased by Rs. 35/- from normal Rs.15/- to take the pilgrims from Kachuberi to Mela Ground. The steamer fare for the passage from Lot 8 to Ganga Sagar Island has been increased by Rs. 40/- from normal fare rating Rs. 6.50/- on average. In every stage the fare has been increased for the Hindu Pilgrims step by step for the last decade.
In return, the Government provides insufficient arrangements for cottages, tents, sanitation or enquiry facilities etc. for the pilgrims coming to Ganga Sagar. Sources said that the outskirts of the Mela Khestra is captured by the Majority Muslim People who also take the chance to misbehave with Hindu Women and Girls when bathing or shopping. The local security and administration overlook the matter as a trifling thing. The Muslim goons and anti social of other communities also try to find a scope to their own choice. The Hindu population of the island is also affected by the remarkable rise of Muslim Population in Ganga Sagar. In the last year, the local Muslim fundamentlists led by Sk. Ismail, a Communist leader tried to set ablaze some Hindu activists gathered in Ganga Sagar attending in a training camp there.

Islamic Mob Attacks Hindu Locality in Asansol for protecting a Hindu devotee from Molestation
A large number of Hindus injured due to a communal clash created by a Muslim mob at Asansol in Burdwan district of West Bengal.On January 9 2009, four Muslims attacked a Hindu female devotee returning from a temple, of the Hindu Goddess Kali, and attempted to molest her in the Masterpara locality of Asansol city.Local Hindus were outraged by this incident and beat up these four Muslim hoodlums. The four soon came back to the same location with a mob of around 300 Muslim activists, armed with swords and sticks, and attacked and vandalised Hindu owned shops, looted them, and beat up many members of the local Hindu populace.As the besieged Hindus attempted to protect themselves and retaliated, joined by other Hindu residents of adjoining areas, a clash ensued. A large contingent of policemen from seven area police stations went to the area and resorted to baton-charge to separate the two groups in order to de-escalate the tension. Two companies of Rapid Action Force, an elite armed unit, were also patrolling the area.A large number of Hindus were injured in the clash and resultant police action but the exact number was not clear. Six persons were indiscriminately arrested for the incident with police raids still continuing. Senior police officers were camping at the area as the situation remained vulnerable.As always, the Bengali and Kolkata press remained totally silent whenever Hindus are being persecuted. This is their way of displaying 'Secularism' - a la carte.

West Bengal Media Supresses News of Hindu Persecution
Hindu homes and businesses have been attacked looted and Hindus have been attacked with lethal weapons, the press remains silent in West Bengal.
Areas Affected in Medinipur: Medinipur, Sepai Bazar, Khaprel Bazar,Bara Bazaar, Bot Tola Chowk and many other areas.
On the day of Muharram, 8 January, in the morning Muslim processionists displaying weapons broke through the police barricade, severely assaulting multiple police officers, seriously damaging over ten Hindu homes, setting fire to and looting Hindu owned shops in the town's Bot-tala area: Savitiri Medical shop's owner Mr. Raju panda, a prominent Hindu businesman was assaulted with a sword and his lower face has been cut; Plastic shop owner Atish Sahu's fingers have been cut by sword as well. Amal Gope's house looted.
The whole city of Medinipur is under police curfew for dual purpose-to protect the Hindu population, as well as not to let the news get any publicity thus in effect punishing the Hindus.
Due to the Muslim clergy's ooposition to Taslima Nasreen, the liberal thinker, Medinipur adminstrator probhibited her to come to the town. This is an example how liberal thinking is being subdued and muzzled by the Islamist mafia in West Bengal.
After Thursday's incident in Medinipur, Mamta Banerjee egged on by her Islamic radical support base, has started her typical styled protests blaming the CPI-M for the whole incident in order to conceal the atrocities done by the Muslims.
The West Bengal media has totally censured this news item so Hindus are not made aware of these incients and suppressed even more. Suppression of this kind of news will only ensure even greater future persecution of Bengali Hindus thus creating a greater diasaster. This suppression is nothing but self-deception and will facilitate another Islamic division of Bengal.
Delhi based media has somewhat covered this news.
