Jan 14: A police complaint was lodged on Tuesday against BJP West Bengal unit president Dilip Ghosh for his threat to "beat up" and "shoot' " anti-CAA protesters, whom he called "infiltrators".
The complaint was registered in Ranaghat police station of Nadia district by a Trinamool Congress worker Krishnendu Banerjee, who alleged that Ghosh was inciting communal passion.
Addressing a party rally on Sunday in Ranathat, about 80 km from Kolkata, Ghosh went ballistic, saying the governments in BJP-ruled Assam, Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh have shot dead "like dogs" those protesting against the new Citizenship (Amendment) Act.
Alleging there were one crore infiltrators in the state, Ghosh had accused them of destroying public property worth Rs 500-600 crore during the violent protests against the CAA last month
"Friends, please know these people who are opposing Hindus and Bengalis. In whose interest are they doing this? There are one crore infiltrators. They are having their meals and staying here on our money".
He accused the state's Mamata Banerjee government of remaining silent a spectator to the violence.
"This (violence) happened because there was neither any baton charge, nor firing, nor was any FIR filed. Why? Didi's police did not arrest anybody... because they vote for her".
He then referred to the three states ruled by the BJP.
"In Assam, Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh, our governments have shot dead these devils like dogs. They were taken elsewhere and then again cases were filed against them. They will come here, eat, stay, and then destroy property. Do they think this is their zamindari?"
He had said once a BJP government was installed in Bengal, "We will hit them with sticks, shoot them and also send them to jail. Our governments have done exactly that. Mamata Banerjee doesn't have the guts to do anything".
However, his incendiary comments did not meet the approval of sections in the party.
Union Minister Babul Supriyo came out with a tweet slamming Ghosh and distancing the BJP from the comments.
"Very irresponsible of Dilip Da to have said what he said. It is a figment of his imagination... BJP governments in UP and Assam have never resorted to shooting people for whatever reason," he tweeted.
Supriyo's tweet was retweeted by nominated Rajya Sabha member Swapan Dasgupta, considered close to both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah.
But Ghosh did not budge and aggressively asked whether the party was being run by Shah or Supriyo.
"People comment according to their understanding. What I feel is that our governments have done it, and so I said all that. If we get a chance we will also do such things," he said, sticking to his earlier comments.
Supriyo also hit back. "Just as he has remarked 'whatever Babul Supriyo has understood he has said', similarly I am saying this is Dilip da's personal opinion, and it has no connection with the party".
Morena's Khedakala village made headlines after the people of Muslim community here gave land to Hindus to build 'Sri Ram Janki Temple' in the village.

99% Muslims over all do all haram business.... Monarch is prohibited.. still saudi has monarchism ..... Idol worship is haram... u will find highest darga in India...... Interest is haram... 90% of bank borrowers and lenders are muslims..... highest default and interest payers in bank are muslims ... are Muslims..... ... my dear brothers before saying haram and halal.. first lets be perfect and then talk about haram and halal.....
#ummar,
Idol worshiping is forbidden in Islam, to support it or fecilitate it by any of the way is forbidden or it is like supporting idolatery,,,
Regarding your examples, prayer by Khalifa Umer or any muslim , at any place of clean is allowed , if there is no any idolatery supported images or any articles....and same way in islam , it is forbidden to harm any non muslim worshiping places...as mentioned by your second example...
This is surely Interest money, Bank Interest is Haram in Islam, Many Muslims have disputed land in their posses. these land either they have to give on charity or live for the Govt. So better to give to Ram Temple since Ram temple is very less in our country comparing to Snake temple and Monkey temple...Useless Muslims who did this all of them reserved places in hell surely Almighty Allah will punish them severely Insha Allah...!!!
NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI... For Sure it means there is no image of GOD.
Ram is a HUMAN and Human has a picture. And U go against the VEDAS.
I think this guy want to deviate the locals & himself far from the TRUE GOD, who says God forgives every SIN except associating PARTNERs with him.
May ALLAH protect us from associating PARTNER with him knowingly & unknowingly.
