Sahibganj (Jharkhand) – Fanatic Muslims pelted stones at the immersion procession of Shri Kalimata taken out on the 28th of October 2022. Few people, including women, were seriously injured in the attack, and have been admitted to a hospital. Police had to resort to a ‘lathi-charge’ to bring the situation under control. Now, a large Police force has been deployed in the area. The incident occurred when the procession was passing through an area where Muslims are the majority population. Nobody is arrested in this connection so far. The stone-pelting was carried out from the rooftops of Muslims’ houses. Similar stone-pelting was carried out during the procession before the lockdown period. (Why didn’t the Police take proper precautions if a similar incident had occurred earlier ? An inquiry should be conducted into this and action should be taken for dereliction of duty by the concerned Police staff. – Editor)
