Durga Puja Greetings from Shri Tapan Ghosh, and the Hindu Samhati team

SUBHA SRI SRI DURGA PUJA

On the auspicious occasion of Sri Sri Durga Puja, celebrating the home coming of Devi Durga and invoking the divinity to beat anti-Hindu forces hollow and call religious persecutions on Hindus a halt, I convey my best wishes to all on behalf of Hindu Samhati.

Sri Sri Durga Puja has a few significations at the same time. While it enthuses a Hindu to invoke and worship virility in Goddess to enable her worshipers to fight against and overwhelm injustice and persecution, it also brings forth an aura of merriment. Hindus worship Mata joyously. Nevertheless, the second saga of merriment is getting difficult more and more.

One more incident, with the passing of each day, authenticates religious persecutions on Hindus more conspicuously and all these are happening in our Bengal, let alone harrowing experiences of Hindus in Bangladesh. It’s, therefore, the most apposite time for Hindus to identify the greatest devil, taking cue from the divine struggle of Goddess Durga against demon Mahisasura.

"Tretaya mantra shaktischa, Jnana shakti kruteyuge; Dwapare yudha shaktischa, Sangha shakti kalou yuge.” We, hence, must stand united as a single unit to fight against all adversities inflicted by the greatest adversaries of Hindu Dharma – it is humane to forget and forgive, it is divine to resist and repay.

On this sanctified occasion denoting TRIUMPH of Holiness over Evil, there is only one Prayer from me. I hope all Hindus, who and their forefathers have been expelled from their homes by the Islamic aggressors ranging from Afghanistan to Bangladesh, Kashmir to Assam or from any other part of Akhand Bharat, observe this day by taking a solemn pledge. It’s to recover our ancient land – Punyahumi, Pitribhumi ancient Bharatvarsha – sanctified thoroughly and devoid of any Jihadi aggression.

Let us all pray to Devi Durga, the savior of the world, to shield homelands of the Hindus from wreckage, to save the honor of our women and provide strength to our youth. Let Devi provide us the courage to fight back against religious persecution.

Communique : A Vijaya Dashami with NO Durga Puja

Kolkata, India
November/5/2010

Hindu Samhati Appeals to the General Hindu Public to QUESTION the West Bengal Media, Administration, Police, and Political Parties one single question :

Why was there Vijaya Dashami Celebrated in Deganga Block WITHOUT a Durga Puja ?

"A Vijaya Dashami with NO Durga Puja"

=================================
This is not the name of a movie. Durga Puja Committees across Deganga area in N 24 Paragana have gone empty. No Murthis (Hindu Religious Icons) were worshipped as has been done in this area for ages.The biggest Bengali mega-festival for which the Hindu awaits in excitement and hope for the full annum have been boycotted and relinquished by the Goddess' followers. Deganga Hindus had decided NOT to bring Mother Durga and her 4 children home, ie NOT to celebrate Durga Puja, ie, Sacrifice Durga Puja in 2010.

Has there been a calamity, an earthquake, a typhoon, or flood ? NO ! Over 500 Hindu homes and 500 Hindu owned businesses have been attacked, multiple Hindu temples have been desecrated and defiled, all with synchronized orchestration by a planned well organized mob under the leadership of MP Haji Nurul Islam. All within a three day span in September, 2010.

Hindus in Deganga have treated this as more serious than a calamity, an earthquake, a typhoon, or a flood. The biggest festival of Deganga's Hindus have been renounced by all the Puja committees of the Deganga Puja Samanvay Committee. They hoped that this will catch the attention of the anti-Hindu media, anti-Hindu administration, anti-Hindu Police, and the anti-Hindu politicians of West Bengal.

This Puja season, while thousands of Hindus in Deganga spent their days in fear, distress, and uncertainty for their and their children's future, the corrupt local media and the vote hungry politicians have done everything in their power to hide the reality from the masses in Kolkata, the capital city, living 20 miles away and elsewhere.

Hindu Samhati has endorsed to the fullest the decision by the Puja Samanvay Committee to renounce this Puja in protest of the anti Hindu stance of the West Bengal media, administration, police and politicians. We want to see that the situation is changed, so that we would be able to do the Pujas in full pristine form in 2011, or else, we have to expand our struggle beyond Deganga and N 24 Parganas.

*In October-November 1946 the whole of India, especially North and Central India observed a Black Diwali in protest against the horrific riots and Hindu genocide in Noakhali, in erstwhile East Bengal. Maybe this Dark Dussera of Deganga will alert us to an impending calamity of similar proportions that hit the Hindus of India in 1946-47.
