Sandeshkhali is currently a burning issue in West Bengal. Due to the close proximity of the island area and the border of Bangladesh, it has become a hotbed of several criminal underworlds. Recently, Sandeshkhali has become hot due to the incident of women torture. The women came out in front of the media and said that night after night the women of the village were raped and taken away from their homes. No woman was spared. All those who made this complaint are daughters of Hindu families. It has also been heard that Shajahan Sheikh, the Trinamool leader of that region, took them to the party office and raped them. Not only them but also many people from outside who came with Shah Jahan, the women of the village had to be tortured. After the incident, the state administration is shaken, Uttam Sardar, Nirapado Sarkar and a BJP leader have been arrested. Governor CV Anand Bose has already visited the spot and directly spoke to the women of the village. They begged their lives to the Governor.The Sandeshkhali incident is not an isolated incident, but an expression of people’s anger for a long time.
Even after Bigha’s of land of the villagers has been embezzled in the name of making a Bherry by Shibu Hazra and Uttam Sardar. Even the villagers from whom the land was taken have not been paid for themselves. They used to threaten to kill if they wanted money. The villagers were also deprived of drinking water. Being a island area, the amount of salt water is high. So there were special lines for fresh water. But that water was not allowed to drink by the villagers but was used in the Verry. Also several usable roads are cut to make the verry. As a result, the villagers had to travel in longest rutes. Also, a fare of one taka was fixed on a special tender day to cross the river. But the villagers had to cross by paying a fare of three rupees instead of one rupee. The remaining two rupees went into Shah Jahan Sheikh’s pocket.
Meanwhile, due to the Bangladesh border nearby, Rohingya Bangladeshi infiltration happened from the other side. Indian citizenship was arranged by taking money from them. Shah Jahan Sheikh made a special place within the Veri region to hide them.
Not only that villegers of Sandeshkhali was threaten for 100 days work money. Sajahan handelers are collected all the money from their account by showing arms.
The most interesting thing is that so many crimes were happening day after day in this island region, almost all of which were happening with the help of the police administration. Never did these dark world events reach the highest levels of state administration. However, the Hindu families of that village are very afraid of openly protesting against Shah Jahan Sheikh. Mean while Sandeshkhali District administration applied 144 to restrict out siders. Today 144 cancelled by High court.
It is to be noted that Sandeshkhali was in hiding for a long time. But when the central agency team went to search the house of Shahjahan Sheikh, there was a problem. The central agency had to be controlled by some people who supported Shah Jahan. Agency workers were injured in this incident. Since then Shah Jahan Sheikh is absconding. The central agency avoided summons three times. Look out notice has been issued. Since then, unprecedented crimes have been found in Sandeshkhali every day.
