WB Violence Ground Report: Terror has taken away sleep, the sound of 'kill-kill' echoes in the ears; fear is visible in the eyes...


Posted on 16th Apr 2025 10:18 am by rohit kumar

While caressing her nine-day-old child in her lap, tears suddenly start flowing...the terror of the night of violence starts floating in her eyes...she wipes her tears and looks at her child and the next moment her heart skips a beat thinking about the future...this is Saptami Mandal of Bedwana village. She is a witness as well as a victim of the violence that broke out in Murshidabad in protest against the Waqf Amendment Act.

 

Saptami is currently staying in the relief camp set up in the high school of Parlalpur in Malda. After the violence, she somehow crossed the Ganga and reached this camp. On Tuesday, when we asked her questions about the violence, she said with teary eyes...I neither have the courage nor the heart to tell the pain of that night. The fear is so much that I can't even sleep at night.

 

The sound of 'kill them, kill them' echoes in my ears...I can't believe how people living together can suddenly become monsters...how can those who share our pain and sorrow think of torturing us? How can they dare to pull our clothes? It doesn't take long for a human to turn into an animal... I had heard this, but I saw it that night. Houses were burning. Everyone was running here and there to save their lives. My husband was not at home... I somehow crossed the river with my four-day-old child... I don't know where I got so much courage from. Saying this, Saptami starts sobbing. Controlling herself, she says... The child was ill, but I couldn't even pick up the medicine.

 

The story of the pain and brutality of all the women living in the relief camp is more or less the same. More than 150 families and about seven hundred people are living in the camp. A large number of police force is deployed outside the camp for their security.

 

Those whom we considered our own were tearing us apart.

 

A victim from Dhuliyan said the people who committed violence had become monsters. They were setting houses on fire by pouring petrol. We were seeing everything getting destroyed, but we were unable to do anything. Those whom we considered our own were trying to scratch us, and tear our clothes. We are shaken to the core... How will we go back home? How do we trust them to not do the same to our children tomorrow?

 

The police kept watching the spectacle.

 

A woman from ward number five said we were being tortured. We were pleading for help and the police were watching the spectacle. Houses were burning, things were being set on fire. We don't trust the police. If the BSF is here, there is still hope of staying safe. Until a BSF camp is set up, a house is arranged and some means of employment is not provided, what will we do there?

 

...then I would have been safe

 

A victim expressed her pain and said, my house was burnt. I somehow fled here with two girls. Today it seems that if I had been born in a Muslim family, I would have also been safe. I had to flee in the clothes I was wearing.

 

Angry people did not let the MP get down.

Malda South MP Isha Khan Chaudhary reached the relief camp, but angry people did not let him get down from the car. Later he said, I will try to improve the situation as soon as possible.

 

MP Khagen said - atrocities on Hindus are a political conspiracy

Meanwhile, North Malda MP Khagen Murmu, who reached the relief camp, said that this atrocity on Hindus is part of a well-planned political conspiracy. The atmosphere of Bengal is being spoiled.
