Hindus have suffered unspeakable atrocities in the Murshidabad district of West Bengal.
Their houses have been burnt, livelihoods destroyed, water poisoned and more. Many Hindus had to flee to save their lives.
🧵Here are 12 videos that capture the horror of Murshidabad
“We have come here with a lot of pain… We do not have a house or a roof over our heads. Everything has been set on fire. They (Muslims) doused our house with petrol, held a knife to our throats and poisoned our water tanks. How do we survive now,”
- A destitute woman who has now fled Murshidabad told ABP Ananda.
One Hindu man recounted how he returned home to find his house turned into ashes. “I couldn’t take out anything…I do not have anything anymore,” he said as he broke down in tears.
The Hindu man pointed out that the attackers are locals and that they have destroyed over 150 vehicles.

One Hindu woman said that bombs were being hurled in Murshidabad, prompting her to flee her home.
Another woman said, “They told us that Modi passed the Bill (Waqf Amendment), and so we will not allow any Hindus to live here.”
“They (Muslims) are talking about raping mothers of Hindus, vandalising and looting our houses. They have taken away our gold ornaments and other valuable and set our houses on fire,” she pointed out.
“They have burnt every single Hindu house in the area. Muslims are supporting this arson. Our children are starving, women are being threatened with weapons, Muslims are committing atrocities.”

It was 1921, two years after the Jalianwala Bagh massacre. In Raebareli, farmers were tormented by taxes and inflated costs. Demanding some respite and discussions with the local Talukdar, hundreds of farmers gheraoed the residence of Talukdar Tribhuvan Singh
Pandit Amol Sharma and Baba Jankidas were among the prominent leaders on the side of the farmers. Alarmed and agitated by the gathering of farmers, Talukdar reported the matter to District Magistrate AG Sharif, seeking his intervention. Sharif arrived with force
On 3rd Nov, Khalistani terrorists attacked the Hindu Sabha Temple in Brampton (Canada) after Hindu devotees protested against anti-India slogans.
