"Kashmirisation of India": Starts with West Bengal: With a Whisper

[Sukla Sen]

This is a part of Kashmirisation of India.

Starting with West Bengal - rather with a whisper.

The immediate goal is to (i) terrorise (a specific section) and (ii) (thereby) polarise.

It's enough indication how the NPR-NRC would be conducted.

How the opposition parties/organisations/individuals would be treated.

Even before that, the rest of polling.

But, this also strongly suggests that the regime is yet unable to carry out any major manipulation of the EVM. 

Then all these would have not been required.

(However, reports of the VVPAT slip not showing, in case of some voters, are pouring in.)

Here are three sample video evidences:

I/III. From the ground zero: <https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=987872308690615>.

How the shooting happened - a real time video document.

On the face of it, gives a lie to the EC claim that the firing was resorted to in "self-defence".

No crowd in sight, except for the queuing voters.

II. Terror operation in Panchla, Howrah: <https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1026261054446945>.

Video report of voters being brutally beaten up in their village homes by men in uniform asking them to vote for the BJP.

Testimonies of those beaten up.

III. A BJP leader is publicly sharing the "plan": <https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10218353884774847&id=1124167597>.

The CRPF would be asked to fire straight in the chests, not legs.
(Ref.: <https://bengali.indianexpress.com/election/lok-sabha-election-2019-west-bengal-bjp-sayantan-basu-basirhat-87254/>.)

That was, however, in 2019.

Being implemented in 2021.

Now, the ECI has prohibited entry of political leaders in the district for 72 hours (ref.: <https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/nation/bengal-polls-ec-bans-entry-of-politicians-in-violence-hit-cooch-behar-for-next-72-hours-237352>).

Yet another marker of Kashmirisation?

Calls for dissemination.

As widely as possible.

Download the videos, if possible.

Voices must be raised all across the land - India.

Needs be resisted.
