Tapan Ghosh speaks at Hindu Samhatiââ¬â¢s Third Anniversary
I would like to initiate the speech by paying tribute to venerable Swami Pradiptanandaji, venerable Swami Tejeshanandaji, Dr. Richard Benkin, Ms. Miriam Jones, my old friend Sri Dhananjay Pathak, Shailendra Jain, Arvid Mishra, Manishji, Amitav Tripathiji and the youth resolved to fight for Hindutva and MatriShakti.
Now there is a question. Why such a great leadership has been brought in?
It is to depict that the desperate struggles of Hindus in the length and breadth of the Indian state of West Bengal is not alone; it is advocated by like-minded people and an international force across the globe and similar struggles are taking place in all four corners of the world.
In 1947, during the partition of the then undivided India, there was a demand of East-West corridor by the protagonists of Pakistan movement, rejected outright by the then Indian leadership. But sadly and conforming to Sri Dhananjay Pathakââ¬â¢s speech, the corridor is becoming a hard reality more and more and the existing situations in West and East UP (Uttar Pradesh), North Bihar along with Murshidabad, Malda and Dinajpur (significant districts in West Bengal) denote the same. In accordance with international agencies, Pakistan and Bangladesh are enjoying bonhomie at the moment and are steadfast to get combined soon.
The Pakistan movement, from its inception in 1940, was ridiculed by both national and provincial leadership but within a span of 7 years it turned out to be a reality. But what is most unfortunate, the Indian leadership and intellectuals till date steer clear of revealing the same reality. And the bitterest truth is that Hindus are getting into a hopeless minority. If the modern statistics is taken into account, Muslims comprise 35% of the total population in Assam, 30% in West Bengal and 25% in North Bihar.
Now the questions remain whether the Bengali Hindus will become refugees once again. Muslims, at the present time, have 57 nations under their jurisdiction throughout the globe while Christians, Buddhists, Jews have 70, 10 and 1 nations respectively. All these bring forth a new question ââ¬â is this not our land. Will the Hindus have to become immigrants like Jyoti Basu, Buddhadev Bhattacharjee, Mamata Banerjee, forsake this land and plead to Lalu Prasad Yadav and Nitish Kumar? Will all these fit the dignity of Hindus?
Hence, Hindu Samhati is waging a war against the adversaries and thanks to all these, within a period of 3 years, it has attained the present position. What is my greatest achievement then? By means of Hindu Samhati I have been able motivate Hindus to fight in no less than 50 places. Hindus would not bow down to anyone any longer. Only on yesterday Muslims destroyed temple in Village Howapota, Sankrail and in P.S. Minakha they assaulted a Hindu religious fair. All these prove police and administration in Bengal have become completely incompetent and the turmoil regarding the Taslima episode proves it best.
How can lessons in Deganga be forgotten? The Islamic assault in Deganga, North 24 Parganas (resulting from a planned and nefarious planning) took place on 06, 07 and 08 September under aegis of Haji Nurul Islam, Trinamool MP from Basirhat, and local Hindus numbering into several hundreds were brutally tortured. Hindusââ¬â¢ homes were looted and destroyed, temples and Deities were desecrated and shops were also put on fire by their Muslim neighbors. A Muslim zealot named Moklukar Rahman urinated on the idol of Goddess Kali in the Kali temple.
But the government and Chief Minister Buddhadev Bhattacharjee failed totally to rein in the situation; army had to be called in. The honorable CM even did not dare to arrest Imam Barkati of Tipu Sultan Mosque for instigation to the murder of Taslima Nasreen. But the same government proved to be quick enough to succumb to the demands of Muslim protestors and arrest editor, publisher of The Statesman (bailed out later).
Two other small incidents are to be mentioned. Father of Jyoti Basu, ex-CM of Bengal, had farsightedness (realized the fast deteriorating situation in spite of alleged Hindu-Muslim unity programs in then undivided India) and built up the house in Ballygunje unlike the hapless Matua community and millions of other people. The situation was no different with the Nehru family, natives of Kashmir, as well. Motilal Nehru, father of Jawaharlal Nehru, built a residence in Allahabad.
All these are great lessons for Hindu Samhati and that's why, enough is enough. Hindu Samhati is resolved to fight back. Hindus are no longer alone; whenever there is any news of atrocities on Hindus, news are broadcasted throughout the globe. There is another thing to be noted. Islamic Ummah is the greatest strength of worldwide Muslim community and it is therefore the time that Hindu Ummah must be built. Surely, the name would be Hindu Brotherhood or Hindu Solidarity or Hindu Consolidation or Hindu Samhati. Itââ¬â¢s first and foremost aim would be to make all Hindus realize agonies of and tortures on Hindus.
Hindu Samhati workers would go on with the struggle.

Hindu valiance can save Bengal only
Islamic appeasement makes government blind
The reigning political clique in Bengal is hell-bent to curb Hindu Samhati and thus to stamp down the voice standing for Hindu rights and their legitimate claims whereas the mounting troubles in the Indo-Bangladesh border area owing to Islamist rowdies, cattle smugglers in particular, remain unnoticed. Well, several reports of this incident have already been published in this website prompting many to term Hindu Samhati as blatantly communal but the threat it puts forth is undeniable. Mainstream media, after lots of brainstorming, have concluded it as a burgeoning threat to the security of India.
Perhaps the government of Bengal needs more time to wake up as the gruesome happening is spearheaded by Islamists, being regarded as the mainstay of the government and hence, placated at every nook.
What is most striking, BSF personnel are not allowed to fire a single shot (as per order in April, 2010) against Muslim encroachers (from Bangladesh) in the border areas who have got a fillip hence and enter India clandestinely almost every day. And all these have led to the tragic death of a BSF jawan, Sartaj Singh (age 45), hailing from Uttar Pradesh.
He got wounded viciously on last Saturday when a band of BSF personnel positioned in Kaijuri, Swarupnagar, Sub-division: Basirhat, District: 24 Paraganas (North) tried to fight hundreds of Islamist cattle smugglers from Bangladesh. Owing to the weird order, BSF personnel had rural weapons like bamboo sticks, wooden bucklers only. On the contrary, aforesaid Islamist smugglers were armed with all kinds of lethal weapons. Soon the later ones overwhelmed BSF jawans and Sartaj along with Jitender Pal Singh were chopped mercilessly. Grievously injured Sartaj was first sent to Basirhat Sub-divisional Hospital, later to SSKM in Kolkata where he succumbed to death on Tuesday.
And the governments, both at the center and state, are yet to adopt any fruitful approach in this regard. Surely they are more interested to go on placating Islamists to ensure their minority vote bank.
In accordance with J S Prasad, DIG, BSF (HQrs), ââ¬ÅThe decision of no firing was adopted on last April and 49 attacks took place in 2011 altogether. 69 jawans were wounded as a result. In this year 6 attacks have taken place on us leading to the injury of 12 BSF jawans.ââ¬Â Everyone is aware of the mindset behind such attacks but Bengal government due to its treasured Islamist friends has not said single word thus far.
People living in border areas of Basirhat and Bangaon Sub divisions have turned out to be the greatest casualty of governmental indecision and Islamist appeasement. Why donââ¬â¢t we focus on the worst affected areas here then? Swarupnagar, Hakimpur, Bithari, Kaijuri, Sholadana, Ghojadanga, Shayastanagar in Bajuria, Jalalpur in Hasnabad, Katakhal, Sutia in Gaighata, Hingalgunj ââ¬â all in Sub-division: Basirhat have become the greatest victims where inhabitants are having sleepless nights virtually. And they consider the governments, especially Bengal, as most culpable in this regard. People, in strength, are witnessed to blame the Islamist appeasement candidly. Why shouldnââ¬â¢t they do this as well? It is too easy for Islamist encroachers to travel across rivers (in these areas) with cattle; villagers claim this can be made highly difficult given that the local administration and police remains vigilant round the clock.
Here is a question. Is the Bengal government too naïve to comprehend the sinister design behind this daily campaign from Bangladesh? It is a part of the design of Greater Bangladesh; Islamist smugglers are simply encouraged to sneak into Indian territory and to have shake up as far as possible to break Indian, virtually Hindu, morale completely.

BSF and cow smugglers clash in Swarupnagar afresh
Persistent silence of the State to increasing crime acts as indulgence only and the entire structure is then dubbed (by wrongdoers) as a mute, namby-pamby body politic that can be swindled at every time. And this happens to be the frame of mind of cow smugglers (operating in Indo-Bangladesh border area without restraint) at the moment. The same was noticed once more on January 23, 2012 (at night) when cow smugglers attacked BSF personnel at Hakimpur, Barasat viciously for endeavoring to prevent smuggling of cows.
The BSF camp was ransacked completely then and a similar incident was repeated on January 24, 2012 at village Swarupnagar, P.S. Swarupnagar. Nevertheless, intransigence of BSF personnel made the cow smugglers run off later on. On the word of villagers, no less than 100 smugglers enter India from Bangladesh illegitimately on every night and 250 cows (on average) are smuggled to Bangladesh.

you do not have the power to influence the result
therefore you must act without the anticipation of the result
without succumbing to inaction

Hindus will have to pay for their peace and security !
Mr. Tapan Ghosh, Hindu leader and President of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢, which fights for the rights of Hindus in West Bengal spoke on ââ¬ËRiots and communication system of Hindusââ¬â¢ during the Convention. He said, ââ¬ÅEven if a Hindu carries weapons but is not mentally prepared to put up a fight, he is of no use. Therefore, Hindus should develop a mentality to fight. If we want peace and security, we will have to pay for it.
Pandavs had to lose Abhimanyu in the process of regaining their kingdom from Kouravs. Despite the fact that Bhagawan Shrikrushna (God Himself) was his charioteer, Arjun had to lose his son. At that time, Shrikrushna consoled Arjun by saying, ââ¬ËTo gain something we have to lose somethingââ¬â¢.
In Assam and West Bengal, there are at least 100 riots each day between Hindus and Muslims. However, since the media do not say anything on this, Hindus of this country are unaware about it. These States are following the fate of Kashmirââ¬Â.
Is a Muslim motherââ¬â¢s milk more
nutritious than that of a Hindu mother ?
When the Muslims start rioting, Hindu women-folk shut the windows and doors of houses and stop their men from moving out. I have talked strongly many times to alter this mentality. When I challenge them with the question, ââ¬ËHindus as well as Muslims drink their motherââ¬â¢s milk; is a Muslim motherââ¬â¢s milk more nutritious than that of a Hindu mother ?ââ¬â¢ When they are asked this, they fight and are victorious too.
Islamic Jihadism In West Bengal - G.Subramaniam - 09-24-2012
Now we shall discuss another side of the court verdict, even if it may appear unpleasant to many. Many Hundu leaders are considering it as a big victory for the Hindus, but I beg to differ. I apprehend that court verdict may give rise to some form of uproar throughout the country. The court order wants to maintain the present status quo for next three months. When these three months are over, Muslims would raise their demand to hold prayer (namaz) in the one-third portion of the land allotted to them.
Another point I have an issue with is, that there is no mentioning of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) and the Trust (called the Ram Janmabhoomi Nyas) in the court verdict. The third party in this case is Lord Ram Himself. Only his devotees have contested the legal battle on His behalf. Who have won the case? The deity of Ramlala Himself? And hence the sanctum of the temple would be the place of idol of Lord Ram, but who will build the temple? It would not be possible for the Deity of Ram to tell someone ââ¬â ââ¬ÅYou build the templeââ¬Â. Who will build the temple? And that would be the moment when government would come into the picture. Hence, as a matter of fact, the organization that started the Ram Mandir movement, who collected funds for building the temple, and went unrecognized in the court verdict.
We have now reached the concluding part of this article. A new phase of the movement soon start, so that the remaining hurdles can be removed fromm the path of the new Temple. The moot question though still is, whether Hindu Samhati (HS) would join the movement? Most people may be amazed to know that, I do not find it right or logical for the HS to join the movement. Many may also be displeased but I am helpless. I cannot lead my comrades and my sympathizers astray. One cannot assure me that another movement for building a temple will ultimately lead to building a temple.
I ask the reader two questions. Firstly, from 1986 to 1992, the movement for temple building was the most wide-spread one after independence. Do the Hindu organizations, at present, have capability of organizing a more wide-spread movement? I can say, no. So, is it now possible to build a temple, by over-coming all the above mentioned hurdles? If it is not possible, then starting a new movement would be meaningless. Then, why should there be a new movement? To speak the truth, simply to gain political mileage, and that is reason why common Hindus considering temple movement a treachery.
In reality, it was true. Only a few people were gathered to join the program. Then we have seen the program of chanting of the victory mantra ââ¬â ââ¬ÅSri Ram, Jai Ram, Jai Jai Ramââ¬Â with no visible result. Only one year ago, we have seen the ââ¬ÅVishwa Gau-gram Yatraââ¬Â. Did any one have seen a result of that movement? (One should notice that both the above mentioned programs reflect an attitude of compromise, not resistance against the well defined adversary). So, it was not possible to build up a movement that we have observed in the decade of 90. If at this moment, we encourage our members to take part in the temple-building movement, that would certainly weaken the struggle for saving West Bengal from Islamization. And that would be suicidal for the Hindus of West Bengal.
In this context, the reader may recall that during the freedom struggle, when the Hindus of East Bengal were fighting against the British colonialists, they did not care that they were going to be landless soon. And as a result, when they obtained freedom, they were turned into refugees. They obtained freedom with partition. But at present, if we focus on temple building, our attention would be shifted from the aim of preserving our geographical boundaries. That would be disastrous for the Hindus of West Bengal.
The reader may also recall, in 1990ââ¬â¢s, when the temple-building movement was at its peak, on June 6, 1990, Hindus were driven out en-masse from Kashnir and that too, not by the back door but by a declared policy. So, I ask the hindu leaders ââ¬â Why the temple movement with its Hindu wakening could not preserve the Hindusââ¬â¢ land in Kashmir? Today, the state of West Bengal is approaching the similar threat. It might become more disastrous that what had happened in Kashmir. A man, whose house has been set on fire, his first and foremost duty is to put out the fire. At that time, it is his most important duty. Hindu scriptures designate such a duty as ââ¬ÅAapat Dharmaââ¬Â. We have to protect our land first and then we shall turn on the problem of temple building. We should not build the temple as refugees. At first, we should stand on our own land with our heads high and then we shall build our temple. So, the Hindus of West Bengal today have to observe the ââ¬ÅAapat Dharma.ââ¬Â

Yogi Adityanath of Gorakhpur praises work of Hindu Samhati
Calls for the Mobilization of Hindus to forcefully respond in Bengal
Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh - In an attempt to link Hindu Forces fighting for the Hindu cause across the Northern and Eastern Plains of India and in the backdrop of the awe-inspiring Mandir dedicated to Bhagwan Gorakshnath, Tapan Ghosh, the president of Hindu Samhati, met and received the blessings of Mahant Avaidyanathji Maharaj, the Peethadeeshwar of the Gorakshnath Peeth and Gorakhpur MP Mahant Yogi Aditynathji as well as apprised both of these important leaders of Hindu society of the grave and rapidly deteriorating situation of Hindus in West Bengal as well as presenting the ever expanding activities of Hindu Samhati to combat these alarming developments that confront the Hindus of West Bengal. Ghosh was in Gorakhpur on the specific occasion of the Shraddanjali Sabha dedicated to the legendary Mahant Digivjaynathji Maharaj, who played a pivotal in mobilizing and uniting Hindus from all backgrounds both in his role as the Peetadeeshwar of the Gorakshnath Peetha as well as the leader of the Hindu Mahasabha.
In the beginning of the meeting, Tapan Ghosh received the blessings and encouragement of the Peetadeeshwar of the Gorakshnath Math, Pujiya Mahant Avaidyanathji, who exhorted Ghosh and all present to mobilize Hindus in Bengal as well as across the whole of India. Yogi Adityanthji asked in a rhetorical and reflective manner that what has happened to the land of Bengal which has given such giants of Hindu society such as Sri Aurobindo, Shyama Prasad Mookerjee, Rabindranath Tagore, Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, Swami Viekananda, and so many others is the place that the center of anti-Hindu activities as well as is one the areas where Hindu society faces the most serious threats to its existence. Yogiji further stated that this situation is due primarily to a severe lack of awareness of their basic Hindu identity. Ghosh made a emphatic statement that Bengal is very quickly headed for another partition, to which Yogiji further added that Hindus across the Indian subcontinent are facing serious threats to their identity. Ghosh then presented the latest edition of the monthly paper published by Hindu Samhati, whose main story was the recent atrocities on the Hindu community in Deganga. Tapanji went on to show Hindu Samhatiââ¬â¢s response and protests to the atrocities committed by the Muslim community in Deganga. Yogi Adityanthji expressed his deep concern and assured his full support to stand up for the Hindus of Bengal.
After being shown a detailed presentation on both the serious challenges confronting Hindus as well as Hindu Samhatiââ¬â¢s activities in protecting Hindus, Pujiya Yogiji said in order to prevent such activities, Hindus must immediately respond in any way possible, otherwise in the next five to ten years Hindus will be completely defeated and Muslim rule will be established. Pujiya Yogiji then talked specifically of the geographical belt across northern and eastern India stretching from Delhi to Bengal, saying that this is the most challenging areas for Hindus. Ghosh responded to this assertion by saying that as Gorakhpur falls in the middle of this georgraphic region, Pujiya Maharajji is in an unique position of being a forceful advocate for the Hindus across not only this region but all over the Indian subcontinent. Additionally Pujiya Maharajji, said that the activities of Hindu Samhati will help tremendously in combating the challenges faced by Hindus and urged more such activities from Hindu Samhati in the future. Yogiji then called for Hindus to be mobilized over all twenty districts of Bengal, and urged Hindu Samhati to take up this gigantic responsibility.
Along with formulating methods of working in tandem, Pujiya Yogiji made invaluable suggestions on how to strengthen the work of Hindu Samhati by telling his experiences in mobilizing Hindus in the Purvanchal regions from the enormous threats faced by Hindus from Islamic extremists in places such as Azamgarh, Mau, Deoria, Maharajganj, and Siddarthnagar. Pujiya Yogiji outlined the manner in which Hindus were organized in these regions. Ghosh presented a formal invitation to Yogi Adityanathji to come to Kolkata and to speak at the events of Hindu Samhati. Yogi Adityanthji said that whenever he comes to Bengal, he will do his utmost to assist Hindu Samhati in their endeavors. At the end of the meeting Yogi Adityanth bestowed his blessings on Tapanda and all present as well as blessed and praised the work of Hindu Samhati, by saying that this is the need of the hour and called for the expansion of Hindu Samhati.

NEWS FLASH : TAPAN GHOSH, PRESIDENT, HINDU SAMHATI ARRESTED BY KOLKATA POLICE.
Posted by hinduexistence on February 15, 2012
Updates(16-02-2012): On 15th February, the Kolkata police authority produced Sri Tapan Ghosh, President, Hindu Samhati to the Judiciary at Alipore Court. The advocates of Hindu Samhati moved the bail petition in favour of Sri Ghosh. After hearing the both parties the Honââ¬â¢ble Judge fixed the next date of hearing on 18th next. Although the Govt. pleader stated the arrest of Tapan Ghosh is a procedural one, the advocates of Hindu Samhati vehemently opposed it as the rights of Hindus for their congregation and expression are blatantly refuted by the State and its agencies. The alleged charges for inciting communal hatred by Sri Ghosh is also disagreed by the Samhati counsels very prudently. Experts expect a positive bail on 18-02-2012 in favour of Sri Ghosh. Hindu Existence also pray to Almighty God for an early release of Tapan Ghosh.
TAPAN GHOSH, PRESIDENT, HINDU SAMHATI IS ARRESTED BY KOLKATA POLICE.
HE (Hindu Existence) NEWS EXCLUSIVE || 14 th Feb, 2012 || 22-00 Hrs. IST || Kolkata.
TAPAN KUMAR GHOSH
Just after the successful completion of the 4th anniversary (HINDU SAMHATI FOUNDATION DAY) of Hindu Samhati, the Kolkata Police followed its President, Tapan Kumar Ghosh with a definite planning to arrest him under the higher instruction of the West Bengal State Authority. Within three hours the Police Contingent of Jadavpur PS arrested him in late evening against a warrant issued out of Jadavpur P.S. Case No. 52/dt 05.02.2012 u/s 295 A, 298 and 120 B (IPC). As per source, the Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee is very much shocked after seeing a successful grand rally for Hindu demands to stop Muslim appeasement and Islamic insurgency in West Bengal.
It is held by some socio-political analysts that some hectic process is going on West Bengal Police Head Quarter at Lalbazar, Kolkata to some severe (but false charges) against the arrested leader to put down his Hindu Activism.
As reported an Islamist organization is going to protest in Kolkata streets near Esplanade on 15th Feb, 2012 with a demand to ban Hindu Samhati as they think it as a prime force against Muslim design to capture West Bengal under a broadened corridor of Bangladesh. Arresting Tapan Ghosh, Mamta Banerjee is trying to give a sharp message in favour her pro-Islamic Stand.
Sri Tapan Ghosh is now detained in Jadavpur Police Station and in good health condition.
Some sharp reactions just recieved :
Swami Tejsananda (Member, Marg Darshak Mandali, VHP): Is practicing Hindu Dharam and assembling to protect Dhrama from the clutch from anti Hindu Spirit supposed to a sin for the Hindus in West Bengal? Nobody can stop us from regaining our position of Hindus in Bengal. Hindus should be united again without seeing any political colour. I condemn the arrest of Tapan Ghosh vehemently.
Sri Ramesh Bhai Shinde (Hindu Janjagruti Samity): We vehemently protest the illegitimate arrest of Sri Tapan Ghosh. We, the Hindus have the fundamental rights to assemble to place our demands and share our agony and anxieties coming to us by some parts to harm the Hindu society. We see a definite threat is being perceived by the Hindus for various reasons. Hindu Samhati as a forum is trying to address all the vulnerable positions to the Bengali Hindus for its survival. If any other populace from others religions are permitted to hold their function without any such restrictions, why this Organization is being censored even after getting Honbââ¬â¢le Court order in its favor. We think the present Govt. in the State is setting a very bad example in West Bengal by ignoring Courtââ¬â¢s order only to appease the Muslim minority in West Bengal. We demand early release of Sri Tapan Ghosh.
Acharya Yogesh Shastri (Arya Samaj, Bengal): It is very much unfortunate that Hindu functions are under gradual cease in Paschim Banga. Hindu Rights are being infringed in the name of Parivartan (CHANGE). Last year this Trinmul and Congress alliance Govt. lead by Smt. Mamata Banerjee grossly violated Honââ¬â¢ble Calcutta High Court Order in connection with total ban on cow slaughter in West Bengal. Ignoring that Court Order, Mamta Banerjee hurts the Hindu sentiment. And now in the same way the present Chief Minister of West Bengal is dis-allowing the rights of Hindus in the matter of Freedom of Speech and Rights to Assemble. it is dangerous for any democratic atmosphere in Bengal. As a result, the Majority Hindus may drastically retaliate without check. I condemn the arrest of Sri Tapan Kumar Ghosh and plea early release. He must not be endangered in police custody anyway.
Stephen Knapp (Srinandanandan ~Vedic Scholar): If M. Bannerjee (Cheif Minister, West Bengal ââ¬â ed.) is pro-Islam in West Bengal, things are going to get very difficult for Hindus. Then another peice of India will be taken away for Islam. When will this ever change? Only if Hindus unite and work together. There are still too many Hindus on the sidelines doing nothing. Hari Om.
CAAMB, KOLKATA: We are worried to hear that Shri Tapan Ghosh, leader of Hindu Sanhati has been arrested after the annual day meeting at Subodh Mullik Square in Kolkata on 14 February 2012. We have seen that a few weeks ago some Muslim organisations including a MLA from ruling party threatened to cause violence if Talsima Nasrinââ¬â¢s book is released in Kolkta Book Fair. Government without arresting those miscreants, bowed down to their threat and stopped release of the book. On 15th February, another Muslim organisation organised a rally at the heart of Kolkata and the Chief Minister spoke to the leader at the rally on phone. So we find while one group of religion-based organisations are being supported even they profess violence, another Hindu religious group is being threatened with banning the meeting and arresting the leader though no public violence has been committed there. As a human rights organisation we are worried that this is not a good sign for democracy and if this continues, the existence of West Bengal as a democratic pluralistic society is under threat.
CAAMB (Campaign Against Atrocities on Minorities in Bangladesh), Kolkata.
Swami Pradiptanandaji Maharaj (Monk In charge, Bharat Sevashram Sangha, Beldanga Branch): I condemn the conspiracy of arresting Tapan Kumar Ghosh, the President of Hindu Samhati with a strong feeling of persecution of Hindus in West Bengal. It is very much unfortunate that the Hindus of Bengal are denied to perform their religious and social programmes. Everywhere the other sects are allowed to do their religious activities with Govt. patronage but the Hindu functions are stopped in many places for appeasing the others. In this connection, the role of the media is also very significant to discharge their duties to highlight such discrimination upon Hindus. But, the media is only after the politics and the minority without giving any importance on the sentiments and the voice of the majority Bengali Hindus in West Bengal. If some eight or ten Muslim Ulemas are demanding anything the entire media flash it in TV, Radio, News Papers. But, when some 10 to 15 thousand supporters of Hindu Samhati gather every year in Kolkata, the entire media does not give any importance to it. This malpractice of Media is to be cowed down by forming a strong and alternative Hindu media. I personally urge to the concerned Administrative and Police authorities to stand with the truth and they should not harass the Hindu leaders or anybody with false allegations under any political or religious influence. This is ethically bad.
Dr. Radhashyam Brahmachari (Eminent Physicist and Hindu scholar): Only to appease the Muslim minorities who are endangering the future of Bengali Hindus, the present ruling party (Trinamul Congress) is blatantly harassing the Hindus in West Bengal much more than its predecessor Left Front Govt. No political party in West Bengal is doing anything in favour of Hindus. It is highly condemnable that in our democratic system only the interests of the minority people is considered as a pious vote bank by torturing Hindus and ignoring the interests of majority people. This will turn as a great retaliation. I CONDEMN THE ARREST OF MR TAPAN GHOSH.
Swami Punyalokanandaji Maharaj (Head Monk, Ramakrishna Ashram, Singur): I am very much shocked to hear the unnecessary arrest of Tapanda. So, far I know that the programme of 14th February at Kolkata was over without creating any trouble to anybody and communal eruption. Then what is the meaning of arresting a Hindu leader against false charges? We see that in every places the rights of Hindus for holding religious functions are being challeged in West Bengal by either the anti-Hindu religious groups or by the present political powers. Bharatvarsha is a land of Sanatana Dharma. If the practice of Sanatana Dharma and public meeting of Hindus are prohibited here, it is very shameful and unfortunate than anything. It is embarrassing us very much. Hindus from all organization should realize the reality in Bengal and must be united with a new equation. Tapanda will be released within day two or three, that we know and will emerge with a greater strength. Blessings of Ma Kali, Thakur Ramakrishna, Ma Sarada Devi and Swami Vivekananda are always with him.
Maloy Krishna Dhar (Ex.IPS. Served IB. Author and Investigative Journalist): I consider the arrest is arbitrary, guided by political decision of Mamata, the leader of All India Muslim Mul Congress. By pursuing Muslim appeasement policy, she is enhancing the speed of another partition of Bengal. I condemn such blatant apeasement policy of Kalighater Mechuni (a fisher-woman of Kalighat ââ¬â ed.).

1946 ââ¬Ëdirect actionââ¬â¢ of Jinnah re-enacted ââ¬â III
V. Sundaram | Fri, 17 Jul, 2009 , 02:53 PM
.
In these columns yesterday (16 July, 2009, Thursday) and the day before yesterday (15 July, 2009, Wednesday) I have been describing the murderous attacks on the defenceless Hindus made by criminal Islamic elements in Murshidabad District of West Bengal. I have clearly brought out the fact that these tragic events are definitely in line with the DIRECT ACTION programme of Hindu Genocide that was launched by Muhammed Ali Jinnah and H S Suhravardy (the then Premier of Bengal), on 16, August 1946. The callously indifferent and inhuman pseudo-secular mass media ââ¬â both print and electronic ââ¬â have been totally blacking out the pre-planned violent communal attacks on the Hindus in Murshidabad District.
Tapan Kumar Ghosh,National Convenor,
Hindu Samhati
But the same anti-Hindu media have been reporting in graphic detail, the patently cheap political fights and quarrels taking place between Sonia Congress supporters and CPI(M) workers during the last two days, in different parts of Kolkata City and the rest of West Bengal as a whole. I am very amused to see that the degenerate Congress Party in West Bengal ââ¬â patently pan-Islamic, pan-Christian and viciously anti-Hindu ââ¬â is viewing the so called ââ¬ÅMangalkot incidentââ¬Â as Jallianwallah Bagh Masssacre(!), with the State Congress leader Subrata Mukherjee demanding the removal of the Superintendent of Police and the District magistrate of Burdwan District for their failure to protect the legislators at Mangalkot in the same District. For all the political parties in West Bengal ââ¬â Sonia Congress, Trinamool Congress, CPI(M), CPI, and the BJP ââ¬â the lives of ordinary Hindu citizens in Murshidabad District (and for that matter in the whole of West Bengal!) are totally dispensable and expendable.
While both the Government of India and the Government of West Bengal, have completely ignored the humanitarian rights of Hindu victims of Islamic terrorism in Murshidaband District, HINDU ORGANISATIONS like the RSS and Hindu Samhati have been playing a stellar role in giving relief and succour to the affected persons in the riot-torn areas. RSS Swayamsevaks in sizeable numbers have been doing marvellous relief work distributing food, clothing and medicines to the affected Hindu men, women and children. The RSS Swayamsevaks, right from the days of Dr Hedgewarji and Guruji Gowalkar have created a track record of tremendous self-sacrifice and self-less service during all critical moments and situations ââ¬â communal riots, floods, drought, epidemics, rail accidents and external aggression ââ¬â in our National History during the last eighty years. I am not therefore surprised to see the heroic role that is being played by the RSS in Murshidabad District today.
In particular, I would like to mention the extraordinary leadership provided by Sri Tapan Ghosh, President of Hindu Samhati. As a Hindu activist he was put in jail during the emergency in 1975. He was a pracharak in the RSS for 31 years. He has guided the work of units of ABVP, VHP, and RSS in various capacities. Tapan Ghosh was in charge of the Bajrang Dalââ¬â¢s North Indian unit comprising 5 states. As a fearless Hindu leader, he has inspired tens of thousands of young Hindu activists to participate in events ranging from the Ram-Janmabhoomi Movement to the local Durga Puja.
Tapan Ghosh is a name synonymous with Hindu Activism in large swathes of rural Bengal. He is seen as a messiah for the downtrodden and persecuted Hindus of Bengalââ¬â¢s villages. He is viewed as a father figure by all the Hindus. He is feared and hated by the Islamic fundamentalist groups. From Purbasthali to Basanti, from Gangasagar to Dhantola, even in places as far as Patna and Delhi, Hindu activists swear by Tapan Ghosh. For the Hindus he seems to be a fountainhead of hope and courage.
Today I spoke to Tapan Ghosh and he has given the following statement:
ââ¬ËNo minister from the anti-Hindu Marxist Government of West Bengal has chosen to visit the riot-torn areas of Murshidabad District to give solace and render help to the Hindu victims of Islamic terrorism. The Union Minister Pranab Mukherjee went to Murshidabad District only to announce that he has given his sanction of Rs 25 Crores for setting up a branch of the Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) in Murshidabad District. The Union Home Minister P Chidambaram who thought it fit to go to Khandmal in Orissa one year after the brutal murder of Swami Laxmananda Saraswati by the hired guns of the missionaries in that area, has not thought it fit to visit Murshidabad District, because for him also the Hindus of West Bengal are only the permanent refugees and not permanent citizens! Behind the fog of all this lurid drama and sparking pseudo-secular glare, I can clearly see the hand of the Pope in Rome operating through his foremost franchisee cosily perched in transitory authority in New Delhi! ââ¬Ë
Knowing the track record of AMU in the creation and establishment of Pakistan in August 1947, the local Hindus and some of the patriotic Muslims fear that this branch of the AMU will become a hotbed of anti-national sectarian politics in this border district. It is also feared that the endless flow of unauthorised Muslim infiltrators from Bangladesh adjoining this district will get a wonderful ideological and operational helipad (the new AMU branch) to the terrorist Muslims (enjoying the full political patronage of CPI(M) and Sonia Congress) from which they can launch murderous terrorist attacks on the Hindus of West Bengal and the rest of India.
Keeping this irrefutable background in view, I requested Tapan Ghosh to give his views on the creation of a branch of the AMU in Murshidabad District. In clear and unequivocal terms, Tapan Ghosh replied with great fervour and conviction:
ââ¬ËThe proposal for the AMU campus at Suti in Murshidabad is a case of ââ¬Ëcompetitive minorityismââ¬â¢ between the Congress and the CPI(M). The state governmentââ¬â¢s eagerness to have the AMU campus in Murshidabad is a reflection of the Marxistsââ¬â¢ desperation to win back the confidence of the minority community, which deserted them in the recent elections. The move to set up an AMU campus is politically motivated. This is nothing but vote-bank politics. Both the Government of India and the Government of West Bengal are fully aware of the fact that Murshidabad bordering Bangladesh is totally vulnerable to infiltration and anti-national activities from across the border.ââ¬Â
DURING THE LAST ONE YEAR, ISLAMIC ATTACKS ON THE HINDUS IN WEST BENGAL HAVE INCREASED IN A SHARP MANNER.
1. Attack at Ganga Sagar on 12 June, 2009On 12 June (Thursday) 2008, at Sagar Island (also known as Ganga Sagar) 6000 Muslim terrorists let loose organized violence against 180 unarmed Hindu devotees who had gone to Ganga Sagar to attend a Yoga and Training Camp organized by Hindu Samhati in a building belonging to the Kolkata Textile Association. A 6000 strong Muslim crowd, armed with sharp-edged weapons attacked the building (near Kapil Muni temple) and beat up Hindu pilgrims at around 7 pm in a savage manner. . Tapan Kumar Ghosh, the National Convenor of Hindu Samhati and Sunder Das, one of his lieutenants, were badly injured. A few policemen deployed on the spot were also manhandled when they tried to intervene. Tapan Ghosh and Sunder Das, both workers of Hindu Samhati, were also beaten up. The four-hour ordeal continued till a larger contingent of police force headed by the Kakdwip BDO and SDPO arrived. Instead of arresting the Islamic marauders for their acts of terrorism against the majority community, the West Bengal Police arrested on Friday 15 Hindu pilgrims. The police also arrested Tapan Ghosh and Sunder Das, the two Hindu leaders and it has been reported that Tapan Ghosh continues to be in police custody.
2. Attack at Krishnapur on the border of Bangladesh on 16 April 2009.
Some Muslim marauders attacked and damaged several houses belonging to the BJP and Sangha supporters in three villages of Krishnapur. These villages are in the jurisdiction of Baishnabnagar Police Station. The trouble started when a Hindu youth who had lent some money to a Muslim youth tried to collect back his money which he had given as a temporary hand loan. The Hindu boy was beaten up mercilessly. Later it escalated into a communal riot.
3. Attack on a Hindu Siva temple in Bardhaman District on 6 June, 2009.
Jamalpur BuroRajer Shiv Mandir,
Burdwan District
In Bardhaman district, the Buro Rajer (another form of Lord Shiva) Mela at Jamalpur village under Purbasthali police station is a major Hindu Religious Festival which has been going on for centuries. According to age old tradition, on the day of Buddha Purnima, Hindus, especially the people of Yadav community come to this Buro Rajer Temple with traditional arms (including their traditional work tools like ploughs, saws, hammers, anvils etc.), which do not include fire arms. This year also on 6 & 7 June, 2009, the pilgrims who had assembled for the traditional festival at Buro Rajer were attacked at Kulipukur near Chhatni village. Hundreds of Muslims took part in the attack. The Hindu pilgrims were beaten mercilessly in a very pre planned manner. More than one hundred people injured and at least 4 Hindus died in the attack. Many are still missing. Many Hindu women were molested and raped in the nearby jute fields. The sick ââ¬Ësecularââ¬â¢ anti-Hindu Media in West Bengal, totally suppressed and blacked out the truth relating to the atrocities let loose by the Muslims upon the Hindu pilgrims at Buro Raj Mela. Even after all this, the police arrested only 15 Hindu victims. No Muslim marauder was arrested.
The Hindus of the area are asking the question: ââ¬ËAre we living in Pakistan or Bangladesh or Afghanistan?ââ¬â¢ The answer is ââ¬ËHINDUS OF INDIA UNITE! YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE BUT YOUR CHAINS!ââ¬â¢

Islamic Jihadism In West Bengal - G.Subramaniam - 09-25-2012
Bengalââ¬â¢s doomed Hindu community ââ¬â Tapan Kumar Ghosh
Posted on June 14, 2012 by IS
ââ¬ÅMamata Banerjee has shamelessly surrendered to the Islamic fundamentalists. On April 3rd she convened a meeting of Imams at Netaji Indoor Stadium in Kolkata and proudly declared a monthly honorarium of Rs. 2500 per head for 30,000 Imams of West Bengalââ¬Â¦. Then she announced that mosque muezzins would be provided with a monthly honorarium of Rs. 1000. How did Mamataââ¬â¢s government conclude that the imams are poverty-stricken?ââ¬Â ââ¬â Tapan Kumar Ghosh
The 34-year long rule of the Left Front in Bengal, according to some quarters, was not spontaneous, but the effect of a few secret measures adopted by Left bigwigs to retain their hegemony for eternity. These include implementation of land reforms, reorganization of Panchayats, expansion of small agriculture, provision to render foods in exchange of works in villages and rural economic development. But still there was a setback in the election of 1982, and though the Left Front managed to retain dominance, deep uncertainty started to gnaw its premier leaders.
There was a need for a stable alternative that could provide the Left certainty of electoral triumph, and there was none better than giving a fillip to illegal immigration of Islamists from Bangladesh to India; this would ensure their sway completely. So a vicious plan was undertaken, subverting national sovereignty and democracy. Illegal immigration became the order of the day, as evidenced by an assortment of reports of that period. The bordering districts of India-Bangladesh border have virtually turned into Islamist strongholds where each Hindu man lives in utter fear and the modesty of a Hindu woman is highly vulnerable.
Take the situation in 24 Parganas border district. According to Bimal Pramanik (Endangered Demography: Nature and Impact of Demographic Changes in West Bengal, 1951-2001), ââ¬ÅThe 1981-1991 decade witnessed a massive growth rate of Muslim population, viz. 41.47%. This obviously is due to Muslim infiltration from Bangladesh. Consequently, the share of Muslim population rose from 22.43% (1971) to 24.22% (2001) within three decades, in spite of a massive Hindu immigration from Bangladesh during the same period. It will be more revealing if we go through the Block-level demographic changes. It needs a special mention that a large number of Muslims who had migrated to East Pakistan after Partition came back to this district not only during 1951-1971 but also after 1971, and this remains a persistent trend till today. Another important feature that needs mention in this connection is the continuous in-flow of Urdu speaking Muslims from Bangladesh after 1971.ââ¬Â
Hindus have also been entering India from Bangladesh, but as persecuted people only, and this gets more evident from the fact that they continue to live in Bengal devoid of any ration card, not to speak of any proper identity. The Left Front was brilliant in denying their claims of being legitimate refugees while bestowing all sorts of legal facilities on Islamists without delay.
Article 1 of the 1951 UN Convention as amended by the 1967 Protocol states that, a Refugee is ââ¬ÅA person who owing to a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality and is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country; or who, not having a nationality and being outside the country of his former habitual residence as a result of such events, is unable or, owing to such fear, is unwilling to return to it..ââ¬Â Hindus of Bangladesh are refugees and any attempt to deny this is untrue and baseless.
The Statesman in a report ââ¬Å3.8 million and countingââ¬Â, reported that 3.8 million people in Bengal have been using bogus ration cards (provided only in Left regime only). Another 7.5 million cards are believed to be in circulation. Jyotipriya Mallik, Minister for Food and Supplies, said, ââ¬ÅWe started this drive from the very beginning of my tenure but for the past few months we were busy with procurement. We resumed the drive in April and in one month 1.8 million bogus ration cards were seized.ââ¬Â He has asked ration dealers and distributors to deposit fake ration cards within a specific period or be prepared for harsh measures.
Hindu religious procession beaten mercilessly in Hooghly
How Islamists remain outfitted (round the clock) to harass and thrash Hindus was again exposed on May 15, 2012, at village Santoshpur, P.S. Jangipara, Hooghly. Hindus have been observing Raksha Kali Puja there for decades and as a part of the program, on the fateful day, Hindus, mostly women, were carrying Gangajal from Sheoraphuli Ganga ghat to Santoshpur along with the holy deity. Musical instruments were played in the procession and the environment was joyful. Almost 50 policemen were guarding the procession.
But at 6 pm, police stopped the procession at No. 31 route for 40 minutes, to allow namaz at the Santoshpur mosque to be undisturbed. Hindus reacted strongly; they blocked the road to give vent to their feelings, but police said this was as per order of SDO. The procession resumed at 6.40 pm and the moment it reached Santosphur crossing, it was stopped by a number of armed persons led by Sahabuddin Mallik, Samsuddin Mallik, Rezwan Ali, known strongmen of the neighborhood. The Hindu religious procession was attacked, Hindu women thrashed with bamboo sticks, some were even stoned and sustained grave injuriesââ¬Â¦
All this happened in the presence of the police and only when Hindus hit back did the police step in and disperse the gang. The Kali puja was completed under tight security.
Madrasa, Urdu & Imamsââ¬â¢ Honorarium: Mamata Banerjee and fate of West Bengal
Mamata Banerjee has shamelessly surrendered to the Islamic fundamentalists. On 3 April, she convened a meeting of Imams at Netaji Indoor Stadium in Kolkata and proudly declared a monthly honorarium of Rs. 2500 per head for 30,000 Imams of West Bengal. Does Indiaââ¬â¢s secular constitution permit any government to organize a meeting of religious representatives of just one community?
Then she announced that mosque muezzins would be provided with a monthly honorarium of Rs. 1000. How did Mamataââ¬â¢s government conclude that the Imams are poverty-stricken? During last decade have the number of mosques gone up or come down? Has not the area, volume and floors of these mosques gone up exponentially, indicating a free flow of funds? Then why this magnanimity of Rs. 90 crore annually? This is taxpayer money; who has given government the right to embezzle this money?
CPI (M) had reserved 10% jobs for Muslims, which is totally against the constitution. It used legal loopholes, categorizing all Muslims, rich as well as poor, as ââ¬ËOBCââ¬â¢. Mamata added 33 more castes to take the number of Muslim OBC castes to 98. She said eight more castes will be included subsequently. She also formed a task force to explore innovative possibilities to hoodwink the constitution and open government coffers for unbridled unconstitutional benefits to Muslims.
Mamata has declared that the ten thousand madrasas outside the ambit of State Madrasa Education Board would be recognised by the state government. The curriculum of these madrasas, presentation as well as those conducting the courses will be completely beyond the purview of the Madrasa Board or the control of the government. They would be beyond governmental observation but would have government recognition.
Mamataââ¬â¢s decisions are highly detrimental to the national interest. She declared Urdu as the second official language in districts where the Urdu speaking population is just 10%, a suicidal and divisive policy. In fact, Urdu domination spurred the language movement in erstwhile East Pakistan, leading to the formation of Bangladesh on a linguistic basis.
Jalaberia: Applied Secularism
In Jalaberia, Kultali P.S., South 24 Pargana district, two dacoits were killed by mob some days ago. Now, on June 5, police are raiding the area at the dead of night, 2 am., beating and torturing the people including women. Some have already been arrested. People are feeling scared and helpless.
Seven year old Tarani Haldarââ¬â¢s hand has been fractured by police torture; he was seriously injured and had to be hospitalized. Others injured include Smt. Anjali Naskar (22); Smt. Bhadduri Sikari (45); Smt. Mallika Haldar (35); Sri Bijay Bairagi (35). It is unclear whether the rural hospital gave them an injury report and whether police will allow them to lodge a complaint against the police.
Taranagar is just 7 km. from this place. There was massive torture and arson in that village, but no worthwhile police action. This is the applied secularism of West Bengal. Common Hindus are accustomed with it. The consequence is migration.
Who will resist? Men ask me, what should they do when their women are being beaten up by the police? What should be my answer? If I tell them to resist, we will be considered law breakers and extremists. Mamata will get a chance to crush us.
But the people resisted in huge numbers; the Police fired and arrested five persons. Police beat and tortured many women. Both CPM and SUCI party leaders pressurized police to do this. I cannot reach there because of distance and my schedule to go to Delhi to attend a court date. Thousands of Hindus have gheraoed Kultali P.S. demanding release of the arrested.
There is a total media blackout, which is the norm here. There is a huge build up of communal tensions in the region. ââ¬â Vijayavaani, 8 June 2012

Trunamul Congress supports genocide of Hindus ââ¬â Mr. Tapan Ghosh
February 20, 2012
Kolkata : ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ is a pro-Hindu organization from Bengal that works for welfare of Hindus all over the country. In the year 2008, this origination was established and since then, we are working for protection of Hindus and Hindu Dharma. The organization has been facing lot of problems for many years. We have suffered because of every Government that ruled the State, had policy of appeasement of Muslims. The policy of Trunamul Congress has put existence of Hindus in jeopardy in Bengal, said Mr. Tapan Ghosh, the President and founder of ââ¬ËHindu Samhhatiââ¬â¢ in a press conference held in Kolkata. On 14th February, ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ held a meeting at Kolkata despite strong opposition of Trunamul Congress and police department which has become puppet in the hands of the Government. The meeting was attended by more than 12,000 devout Hindus.
Police took Mr. Ghosh into custody in the night of the meeting at 9.00 p.m. in Kolkata. After 3 days judicial custody, he was released on bail on 18th February. He held a press conference to explain the standpoint of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢.
Mr. Tapan Ghosh said further, ââ¬ÅActivities of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ are carried on in lawful manner. The organization completely believes in judicial system of this country; but attempts are being made to brand this organization as a terrorist organization. Police used illegal methods to stop Hindu Samhati from holding the meeting. Section 144 was deliberately imposed on the area in which the meeting was to be held. Despite Kolkata High Courtââ¬â¢s permission to hold the meeting, police acted against the Constitution of India to appease Muslims. Such act of the Government is a conspiracy against Hindus and attack on the unity and integrity of this country; besides, an attack on communal harmony. ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ wants to keep this dangerous situation in Bengal before mass media.ââ¬Â
Trunamul Congress Govt. has insulted judicial system ! ââ¬â Mr. Abhay Vartak, spokesperson, Sanatan Sanstha
In the press conference, Mr. Abhay Vartak, the spokesperson of Sanatan Sanstha said, ââ¬ÅTo stop holding of a program despite Courtââ¬â¢s permission is contempt of Court. There is discrimination based on religion between Hindus and Muslims in Bengal. On one hand, police donââ¬â¢t grant permission for Hindu Samhatiââ¬â¢s program despite Courtââ¬â¢s permission and on the other hand, the same police and State Government allow Muslims to hold any program anywhere. Muslimsââ¬â¢ programs are held even in the night without any objections. The State Government has huge police force to stop Hindu Samhatiââ¬â¢s program; but it does not have enough police to protect women; therefore, four Muslims raped a woman in a train. Two ââ¬Ëjihadiââ¬â¢ Muslims have made a demand from their website to apply ââ¬ËShariatââ¬â¢ Act in India. They have also provoked Muslims to revolt and to fight against Indian Constitution and Government on 3rd March in Delhi; but our rulers are paying no attention to such instigations. The same rulers, however, do not allow Indians to even hold meetings. The media should present this situation before people and do justice to us.ââ¬Â

Trinamool Congress trying hard to implicate Tapan Ghosh of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ in false cases !
February 16, 2012
Court granted 3 days judicial custody to Ghosh ! Muslim organizations demand ban on pro-Hindu organizations!
Hindus please note that no Muslim leader is ever arrested after their meeting !
Tapan Ghosh, Hindu Samhati
Kolkata: Chief Minister Mamata ââ¬ËBanoââ¬â¢ has been shocked to see the huge response received for the anniversary program of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ held on 14th February. ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ is an organization working for welfare of Hindus in Bengal. The Government is, therefore, trying hard to suppress the movement started by Mr. Tapan Ghosh, the founder of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ to awaken Hindus. In this background, Mr. Ghosh was taken into custody at 9.00 p.m. on Tuesday and the Government is planning to file false cases so as to implicate him. The above news was published on the pro-Hindu website called ââ¬ËHindu existenceââ¬â¢. (Trinamool Congress is following the example of communists and working for ââ¬ËIslamizationââ¬â¢ of Bengal! There is no alternative to establish Hindu Nation if this is to be stopped ! ââ¬â Editor SP) Mr. Ghosh has been arrested under the clauses 298, 295-A and 120-B.
3 days judicial custody for Ghosh !
Police started at 11.00 a.m. to take Mr. Ghosh for presenting him in the court on Wednesday; but he was taken to some unknown place and later, he was brought at 3.00 p.m. at Alipore Sessions Court. The Court has granted him 3 days judicial custody till 18th February. He has been sent to Central Jail in Kolkata. He was arrested after the 4th anniversary meeting of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ was over. It is understood that his arrest took place due to action taken at high level. (This shows that secular rulers are trying to eliminate Hindus all over the country with the help of police ! ââ¬â Editor SP) Mr. Ghosh was arrested by sub-inspector of Jadhavpur.
Jamat-e-Islami Hind demands ban on ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ !
Muslims, who are trying to take over Bengal, feel that Hindu Samhati is a big obstacle in their anti-national ploy and few Islamic organizations are trying to get ban imposed on ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢. (Trinamool Congress, which is always appeasing Muslims, may even agree to their demand ! ââ¬â Editor SP) A meeting was held by Muslims under the leadership of ââ¬ËJamat-e- Islami-Hindââ¬â¢, a ââ¬Ëjihadiââ¬â¢ organization, in Kolkata to get their demand passed. The Muslim organizations made a demand to ban ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ and all such organizations associated with it. (Tapan Ghosh is arrested in few hours after meeting of Hindu Samhati and immediately on the second day, jihadi organizations demand ban on pro-Hindu organizations. This shows ââ¬Ëjihadisââ¬â¢ are ruling over Bengal through Trinamool Congress. Hindus should understand that establishment of Hindu nation is the only alternative to change this situation ! ââ¬â Editor SP) Mamata Bannerjee has sent a direct message to Muslims by arresting Mr. Ghosh that the Government wants to favour Muslims.
Anti-national media in Bengal trying to support jihadis and convert Bharat into ââ¬ËIslamistanââ¬â¢ !
On Tuesday, despite strong opposition of Muslims, anti-Hindu Trinamool Congress and Communist parties, Hindu Samhati held meeting in the atmosphere of great enthusiasm but in peaceful manner. Bengalââ¬â¢s Mughal police tried to stop holding of this meeting although permission of the Court was obtained for holding the said meeting. Police banned to raise slogans of ââ¬ËBharatmata ki jaiââ¬â¢. Police closed the entrance of the venue when hundreds of Hindus had gathered to attend the meeting and deliberately caned them for no reason. Thousands of people were stopped on railway station by the police so as to prevent them from attending the meeting. News of this meeting was published only by ââ¬ËSudarshanââ¬â¢ channel and none of the other channels or newspapers even published news about this meeting nor any reporter was present to cover the news except that of ââ¬ËSudarshanââ¬â¢ channel; whereas on Wednesday, when Muslims held a meeting to oppose all pro-Hindu organizations, all channels reporters were crowding the place. This clearly shows the Hindu-hatred and pro-Muslim policy of reporters.
O Hindus, support Mr. Tapan Ghosh with all your strength and shake the Mughal Govts. at Indraprastha (Delhi) and Kolkata !
Hindus must realize that arrest of Mr. Ghosh , who is fighting for protection of Hindu Dharma and Hindus, is a ploy of anti-Hindu Trinamool Congress to eliminate Hindus and they should wake up to protest against such happenings. Try to oppose this incident in whatever lawful manner as possible like computer-literate Hindus can use social websites as (twitter, facebook etc.) to register their protest. They can ask for an explanation to elected representatives in their area, send e-mails to ministers etc. Remember that the problem faced by a pro-Hindu anywhere in the world is a problem faced by Hindu Dharma.

Demonstration of Hindu unity despite strong opposition by Trinamool Congress Govt. at Kolkata !

Police strongly oppose to holding of meeting despite Courtââ¬â¢s permission
Police oppose to raising the slogan of ââ¬ËBharatmata ki Jaiââ¬â¢
Police prevent people from attending the meeting
First time in history, police exhibiting anti-Hindu mentality by locking entrance gates of the venue
Kolkata (West Bengal) : Staunch pro-Hindu organisation ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ held a meeting despite many obstacles and severe opposition by the Government led by Trinamool Congress Party (TCP). The meeting took place in the atmosphere of great enthusiasm owing to firm resolve of devout ââ¬ËVang-bandhus (people of Bengal)ââ¬â¢. The meeting was held on the occasion of 4th anniversary of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ organization. More than 12000 Hindu brethren from various parts of Bengal attended the ââ¬Ësabhaââ¬â¢.
Many dignitaries like Swami Pradiptanandji, Swami Tejasanandji, Acharya Yogesh Shastri, Michael Brannon Parker a.k.a Vrundavan Parker, Dr. Gautam Sen, Dr. Neelmadhav Das, Mr. Tapan Ghosh, Mr. Ramesh Shinde and Mr. Abhay Vartak shared the dais. Owing to strong opposition by anti-Hindu TMC Government, police had refused to grant permission for the said meeting and arrests of members of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ were started by the police leading to confusion whether the meeting would take place as scheduled. The members of Hindu Samhatiââ¬â¢, however, sought permission of the High Court as a result, the meeting scheduled to start at 1.30 p.m. could be started only by 3.45 p.m. Only 5 dignitaries could address the meeting due to delay in start. Mr. Tapan Ghosh was presented with a picture of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj by Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) as also Sanatan made picture of Srikrushnarjuna that has 28.9 % ââ¬ËKrushna-principleââ¬â¢.
We must follow the path of ââ¬ËTruthââ¬â¢ to preserve Hinduism in us ââ¬â Vrundavan Parker, USA
Mr. Michael Brannon Parker from USA (now his name has been changed to Vrundavan Parker as he is practicing spirituality as prescribed in Hindu Dharma) said, ââ¬ÅHindustan is the only country with 72 Muslim organizations. In all Muslim countries in the world, women are not treated properly; but there were women prime ministers in Bangla Desh and Pakistan. Both these countries were originally parts of Hindustan; therefore, in these countries, women are treated in a better way compared to other Muslim countries. This shows the importance of Indian culture. Today, new roads, buildings, hospitals are being constructed but when we are unable to manage even the old ones; where is the need for constructing new? We have to follow the path of ââ¬ËTruthââ¬â¢ to preserve Hinduism in us; there has to be unity. The strength of our opponents (Muslims) is only in unity. Spiritual practice and penance undertaken by religious leaders, saints and sages has preserved the importance of Hindu Dharma. Hindus should unite in large number and work for protection of Nation and Dharma. Bengalââ¬â¢s ââ¬ËRoyal Bengal Tigerââ¬â¢ Netaji Subhashchandra Bose, Swami Arvind created great history. We will propagate this great Hindu culture in all countries in the world. We Hindus love the whole world; but we only behave in wrong manner. It is a very good sign that under the auspices of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ and its founder Mr. Tapan Ghosh, Hindus have come together against oppression of Hindus.
Mr. Gautam Sen from London said, ââ¬ÅAlthough we stay abroad, we, Hindus, from the world are one.ââ¬Â
It is a platform to make known oppression of Hindus to the Earth !- Tapan Ghosh, Founder, Hindu Samhati
Mr. Tapan Ghosh, the founder of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ said, ââ¬ÅMr. Abhay Vartak, the spokesperson of Sanatan Sanstha, Mr. Ramesh Shinde, spokesperson of Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) from Maharashtra, Dr. NeelmadhavDas, the founder of ââ¬ËTarun Hinduââ¬â¢ organisation from Dhanbad, Jharkhand, Mr. Gautam Sen from London and Mr. Vrundavan Parker from USA, have come here for this meeting and I offer special gratitude to them. Muslims are oppressing Hindus everywhere in this country; but due to the wrong policies of media, the truth is not reaching to the people. Hindus have come here to attend this meeting from various villages to convey the real position of Hindus to their brethren. This is a medium to convey to this Earth, the oppression of Hindus. I render apology to all the speakers who could not speak in todayââ¬â¢s meeting owing to the situation created by police and the Government by oppressing Hindus.ââ¬Â
We must unite for establishment of Hindu Nation ! ââ¬â Ramesh Shinde, spokesperson of HJS
Mr. Ramesh Shinde, the spokesperson of HJS said, ââ¬ÅI have to come to Bengal from Maharashtra for everyone to know that all Hindus from Hindustan are united. Those, who want to live in this country, will have to say ââ¬ËVande Mataramââ¬â¢. Those, who do not want to pay obeisance to this land, are free to go to Pakistan. If Muslims are to be referred to as ââ¬ËBhai Bhaiââ¬â¢, they need to revere ââ¬ËGou-mata (cow)ââ¬â¢ and ââ¬ËBharatmataââ¬â¢ as mother; else they cannot be our ââ¬Ëbhaiââ¬â¢ but they will have to be called as ââ¬Ëkasai (butchers)ââ¬â¢. When Swami Vivekananda had gone to USA, an American asked him, ââ¬ÅCan you tell the difference between Hindu Dharma and other religions in one sentence?ââ¬Â; Swamiji had said, ââ¬ÅIn Hindu Dharma, a person treats all other women as mothers except his wife; but in other religions, except oneââ¬â¢s mother, all women are treated as oneââ¬â¢s wife. This is the importance of our Dharma.ââ¬Â There were 8% Hindus in Pakistan and they are 1 % now. In Bangla Desh, there were 30% Hindus and the number has come down to 8%; whereas there were 100% Hindus in Bharat and the number has reduced to 70%. Despite ban under the law, a meeting was held near mosque between 10.00 p.m. and 12.00 p.m. If meeting can be held there, why it cannot be held here? Hindus, therefore, need to come together. All Hindus from Bharat should unite to establish a Hindu Nation and should learn about Hindu Dharma for making this as a Hindu Nation.ââ¬Â
Dr. Neelmadhav Das, the founder of ââ¬ËTarun Hinduââ¬â¢ organisation said in his speech in the beginning of the meeting that there is need of Hindu unity today. He presented the current situation of Hindus.
Strong Hindu hatred of media exhibited once again
The State Government ruled by TCP, local administration and police were strongly against holding of the meeting and till 3.00 p.m., one was not sure whether the meeting would be held or not. In such situation, although the meeting was started at 3.45 p.m., there were 12,000 devout Hindus. All anti-Hindu channels generally publish ââ¬Ëbreakingââ¬â¢ news about even meager attendance of people in the meetings held by anti-Hindus; but all news channels preferred to ignore such important news. Had there been a meeting of Muslims, all channels would have published it even if there would have been attendance by just 100 Muslims.
Only ââ¬ËSudarshanââ¬â¢ Channel shows the news
The direct transmission of the meeting of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ was shown only by ââ¬ËSudarshanââ¬â¢ Channel. The spokespersons of HJS, it being a pro-Hindu organization and of Sanatan Sanstha, being an organisation that staunchly propagates Hinduism have thanked Sudarshan Channel.
Highlights
12,000 people attended the meeting. Many people went back as it was not certain whether the meeting was going to be held besides fear of police.
There were more than 300 men and women police deployed for the meeting.
The scheduled time of the meeting was 2.00 p.m.; but police did not allow to open the main gate of the venue till 12.30 p.m.
Preparations of the meeting were completed only in one hour by the members.
During the speech of Mr. Ramesh Shinde, the Bengali brethren raised slogans of ââ¬ËJai Shivaji, Jai Bhavaniââ¬â¢.
Mr. Vrundavan Parker, a Hindu speaker from USA spoke in English. His speech was translated by Mr. Tapan Ghosh, the founder of ââ¬ËHindu Samhatiââ¬â¢ in Bengali. When Mr. Ghosh too raised slogan in Hindi of ââ¬ËBharatmata ki jaiââ¬â¢, all the members of audience responded spontaneously.

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Tapan Ghosh
As I understand, there were four wise persons in India who saw the truth of
history that Hindus and Muslims in India are not mere two communities, but
they are two distinct separate nations. One may be astonished to know their
names. They are Veer Savarkar, B.R. Ambedkar, M.A. Jinnah and K.B. Hedgewar,
founder of RSS.
None of them were propagator of Two Nation Theory. They just saw and
admitted the truth and worked accordingly.
Jinnah worked for achieving a country for his Muslim Nation.
Savarkar and Hedgewar worked for preserving boundary of age old Hindu
Nation.
Ambedkar worked to get a safe country, even if it is divided, for the Hindu
Nation. That is why he strongly advocated a complete transfer of population
after partition. He went to the extent to warn us that in united free India,
the Muslim soldiers in Indian Army cannot be trusted in case of any attack
on our western border from any Muslim country.
It was only Gandhi, who was intoxicated to think himself as god or avatar,
betrayed our country. His fantasy did a great harm to our country. Of
course, we as a nation, did some sin in past. Hence we got a leader like
him. Otherwise we would get a leader like Abraham Lincoln.
India is long awaiting her own Abraham Lincoln.

ere is a passionate but logical speech delivered by Shri Tapan Ghosh of Hindu Samhati, Kolkata.
Shri Tapan Ghosh cogently argues that since Bharat was divided in 1947 on the basis of two nation theory how come Hindus are still being insulted and treated like second class citizens in their own country and Muslims are pampered by the Government of India.
Tapan Da firmly believes and cautions Hindus that Secularism as practiced in India will obliterate Hinduism from Indian soil and will pave the way for Islamization of Bharat.

Tapan Ghoshââ¬â¢s speech educates Hindus in Dhanbad of rising Islamic fundamentalism
Facts that mounting Islamic fundamentalism is becoming the most dreadful impediment to Hindus throughout India and Hindu resurgence happens to be the only option for its own survival are no more secrets; these are getting more extensive and the perfect depiction of this novel genesis was witnessed on January 22, 2011, at the annual function (Vershikotsav) of Tarun Hindu, Hindu rights advocacy group based in Dhanbad, in the Indian state of Jharkhand. Chief Guest to the event was Sri Tapan Ghosh, president, Hindu Samhati while Dr. Nila Madhab Das, president, Tarun Hindu, happened to be the chief organizer. The event took place in a highly decorated pandal on the ground near Steel Gate, Saray Dhela in Dhanbad and was presided by Dr. R. L. Prasad.
The main attraction of the event was the speech "Why today Hindus of India want Hindu Rashtra" and the chief speaker was Dr. Smt Indulata Das, Founder & Director of 'Yoga and Prachya Vidya Samstha', Bhubaneswar. Other speakers apart from Sri Tapan Ghosh included Shyamalanand Mukherjee,(Advocate), Bijay Ghosh(Prant pramukh, Dharma Jagaran Manch, Jharkhand, Sangh Pracharak), Sarat Dudhani (Businessman), Baivab Aple (Sanatan Samstha), Kamlesh ji(VHP, dist. secretary).
An assortment of such speeches (resulting from speakersââ¬â¢ meticulous studies and decades of struggle) was indeed a new and buoyant experience for Hindus who attended the event in large numbers. Without doubt, the great presence of Hindus (having dedicated souls to the cause of Hindutva and thus preserve Hindu interest) there inspired the speakers lots as well. Sri Tapan Ghosh, citing many references and especially of harrowing experiences of Hindus in Bengal, stated that Hindu Dharma is waging a desperate struggle in its own land to create a Hindu State and the time has come for Hindus to dwell on this issue most seriously. Other speakers accentuated an assortment of other subjects.
Tarun Hindu was established in 1998 on the day of Vijaya Dashami at Balipur, District: Dhanbad, in the Indian state of Jharkhand. The one and only aim of the organization is the establishment of a Hindu Rashtra and Hindu Vishwa, and thus to make Hinduism the mainstream religion (or way of life) in both India and international arena.
Dr. Nila Madhab Das, president, Tarun Hindu, well-known Gynecologist in Dhanbad, has experiences of decades of struggles with him. In spite of being in government service in BCCL hospital, nothing could prevent him from taking part in Karseva in 1992 and to make his lifelong ambition of forming a Hindu Rashtra come true, he established Tarun Hindu, founded on ideals and preaching of Swami Vivekananda, in 1998.

Hindu Samhati leaders arrested after attack by 6, 000 strong Muslim mob in West Bengal
FRIENDS OF HINDU SAMHATI
Registered in: New York, USA. Contact: hindusamhati@gmail.com
June 13, 2008
The Friends of Hindu Samhati, USA unequivocally condemns today's gruesome attack on the Hindu Samhati training camp at Ganga Sagar (West Bengal) by a murderous mob of local Muslims, at least 6000-7000 strong, starting Thursday (June 12, 2008).
Ganga Sagar is a very reknowned Hindu Tirtha Kshetra (Place of Pilgrimage) where the sacred Ganga River has a confluence with the Bay of Bengal. Ganga Sagar is located on the western edge of the Sunderban Delta on Sagar Island. At the edge of Sagar town - adjacent to the beach - is the ancient temple dedicated to Kapil Muni, the sage responsible for initiating the chain of events that ultimately resulted in Mother Ganga descending to the earth from heaven and giving mankind an opportunity to wash away its sins in her pure water. The earliest mention of this sacred place is found in the Mahabharata where a learned sage explains to Bhishma the significance of taking a dip at the confluence of Ganga Sagar. Millions of Hindu pilgrims visit this holy place all year round to take a dip in the ho,y Ganges, particularly during the Kumbha Mela and Makara Sankranti festivities.
Since this morning (Thursday, 12 June, 2008), Hindu Samhati had started conducting a training camp and workshop on the current socio-political scenario to 180 men, women and children in the peaceful and serene surroundings of Ganga Sagar.
Sri Tapan Kumar Ghosh, the National Convenor of Hindu Samhati is conducting the main sessions of this camp. Other eminent people and local notables are also present. Everything went on smoothly until this evening, when suddenly the camp building was surrounded by a murderous mob of about 6000-7000 local Muslims bent on mayhem. The Muslim attackers were well-prepared and have been throwing gas cylinders and petrol bombs (molotov cocktails) and kept on attacking incessantly for a few hours, to incinerate the whole camp. The entire camp building has been reduced to ashes. All 180 of our camp attendees (a large number of them women and children) and 15 policemen are trapped inside this burning camp along with our dear leader Sri Tapan Kumar Ghosh.
Already 14-15 attendees of the camp have been injured in the carnage, and at least 7 of them are in very critical condition and are not expected to survive. The names of the critically wounded include: Subodh Kundu, Bivas Mondal, Gopinath Biswas, Prasenjit Sardar and Gautam Halder, apart from 2 others that could not be identified because of serious facial burn injuries.
Nine camp attendees are still missing and may have been kidnapped by the Muslim mob. Their names are: Gautam Mondal, Kartick Biswas, Ram Shil, Palash Roy, Gopal Dolui, Piyush Senapati, Ashok Das, Shankar Nandi and Subhash Roy. We are very apprehensive about their well being.
The local police-station (Thana) has unfortunately sent in a small posse of 15 policemen who are totally inadequate for resisting such a huge Jehadi mob armed to the teeth. The police could not control the mob of Muslims even after firing several rounds.
As of Friday morning (June 13, 2008), as per the recent information received by us, the assault by the Muslim mob at Hindu Samhati campsite in Gangasagar is still on, although the intensity has abated a little bit. Some more police force has reached the trouble spot, though the large force required to subdue a mob of this size and temperament is nowhere in sight. A recent update by phone from the camp is that along with the 14-15 attendees who were injured, 2 policemen have also been seriously injured due to the assault by the Muslim mob. Scores of other attendees to the camp has sustained minor injuries in this most cowardly assault including the National Convener of Hindu Samhati, Sri Tapan Kumar Ghosh. Thankfully his injuries are not serious.
Apart from throwing petrol bombs to incinerate the camp building, the Muslim mob also tried to breach the wall by exploding cooking gas cylinders against it. Failing to break into the camp, the rampaging Muslim mob has attacked and seriously damaged some nearby houses of the local Hindus. They have also seriously damaged and set fire to an adjoining Kali temple and a 'Yatri Nivas' (Travellers' Lodge) run by the Vishwa Hindu Parishad. The fireball attacks have slightly abated but the vicious threats and stone pelting continues ââ¬â all attuned to the collective chants of both 'naara-e-takbir, allahu akbar' (allah is the Greatest) and 'inquilab zindabad' (Long Live the Revolution).
Sagar island at the Ganga Sagar ââ¬â the confluence of the Ganga and the Bay of Bengal ââ¬â is one of the holiest pilgrimages of India, where millions of Hindus from all over India and the world gather during the 'Makar Sankranti' (Winter Solstice) for the 'Punya Snan' (Holy Bath) every year. If a peaceful Hindu gathering can be assaulted with such viciousness and impunity in one of the most sacred Hindu sites of pilgrimage, one shudders to think what lies in store for the Hindus of West Bengal a few years hence.
In a travesty of justice, instead of arresting the attackers, the Police in West Bengal have slapped a non-bailable arrest warrant against Sri Tapan Kumar Ghosh and 15 Hindu Samhati activists. The concocted charges against them are listed as being: "Incitement and Instigation for Rioting" and "Disruption of Communal Harmony".
As per the latest news received from the ground, Sri Tapan Kumar Ghosh and 15 Hindu Samhati activists have been framed and arrested for inciting communal disharmony by Kakdwip Thana (Police Station) in West Bengal.
1) The Friends of Hindu Samhati, USA strongly protests this outrageous attack on a peaceful, indoor religious function that was held behind closed doors. There was no provocation for this vicious assault nor was any outdoor procession held at the location. It is pitiable that the police could not provide security to its peace loving citizens and is instead insisting on closing the camp down.
2) We strongly urge the police and the local administration to arrest all the perpetrators of this heinous crime immediately and provide security to continue the camp at a nearby, alternate location.
3) We deeply deplore the travesty of justice in West Bengal and appeal to the police and the local administration to remove the framed charges and release Sri Tapan Kumar Ghosh and 15 Hindu Samhati activists immediately.
4) We request all friends and readers in India and abroad to call up the Indian administration to inquire about this incident. At least, they will know that people still care about justice and peace in India. The Numbers to Call are:
