Murshidabad Violence: People migrating towards Jharkhand, many families stopped in Malda; taking shelter in relief camps

Several families have been displaced following protests in Murshidabad over the Waqf (Amendment) Act, with many of them migrating to Jharkhand's Pakur district, while others have taken refuge in relief camps set up in Malda. An elderly man who migrated to Jharkhand's Pakur broke down while narrating his ordeal during the Murshidabad violence.

Suddenly some people came and started vandalising.

Speaking to ANI, he said, "I don't know what happened. I opened my shop in the morning and sat outside. Then several people came and started banging on the doors, throwing bricks and breaking the doors. My television, my mirror, my furniture, 2-3 cupboards and all my money was at home. We came here the day before yesterday night."

The rioters burnt their houses and everything.

Despite the deployment of police and central forces, people are still in fear in the violence-hit areas of Murshidabad-Suti, Dhuliyan, and Jangipur. The victims say that the rioters burnt their houses and everything. They fear that they may be attacked again after the police and central forces leave.

Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee maintains silence.

After the unrest, leaders of various political parties have accused the West Bengal government led by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of remaining silent despite the situation worsening. CM Yogi has attacked the West Bengal government over the violence in Murshidabad and alleged that the Mamata Banerjee-led government has remained silent despite the situation worsening.

CM Yogi said Bengal is burning.

Addressing a gathering, CM Yogi also thanked the Calcutta High Court for ordering the immediate deployment of central forces in Murshidabad. CM Yogi said that Bengal is burning. The Chief Minister of the state is silent. She calls the rioters 'messengers of peace'. But those who understand only force do not listen to words. In the name of secularism, she has given complete freedom to the rioters to spread unrest. The entire Murshidabad has been burning since last week, yet the government is silent. Such anarchy should be controlled.
