no bro, actually the situation at the ground has been tense and worsening over the years. similar is the case in Assam. the governor of West Bengal had to say some weeks back that if something is not done soon, a demography-change (and yes deliberate at that) is imminent! years of influx has wrought havoc in those lands and for their inhabitants. the smaller districts/towns/villages and hinterlands are the most affected, but even places like north 24 paraganas, etc. are reeling under it. the local media-reporting there is usually censored in these cases by the govt., and in case of the MSM, by far only 1-2 channels have been showing reports on this, NewsX being the one in English (they have other reports, which may be found on youtube, titled - 'jihadisation of Bengal'), then its understandable that most people elsewhere are unaware about the the ongoings. some village in Durgapur hasn't been celebrating Durga Pooja for past few years in protest; recently a gentleman from another village there had written a letter to the PMO, requesting to immediately intervene in the affairs of the state. he had detailed what's going on in his village and others. his own 14-yr old daughter was abducted at gun-point in one of the usual raids. some years back, even the Ramakrishna Mission had to approach the SC to request to not anymore identify the Order as a 'religious organisation' (due to constant attacks by these jihadists and their political accomplices; i had seen the pics of how a monk was humiliated and assaulted for running a school for the village-children). then there was another thread here itself regarding cancelling women's football match in Malda after a fatwa and fearing unrest. some years back when the perpetrators of genocide in the erstwhile east pakistan were sentenced by bangladesh court, lakhs of these people had converged onto the streets of Kolkata in support of those criminals. this alone should've been a signal then. but appeasement-politics comes with free blinkers. some weeks back a forum-member was telling to me that he's very concerned about IS' future-plans and engulfing India into the flames. i said to him first worry about the fire simmering beneath the lands of W. Bengal/Assam that many still aren't aware of.
all this has been happening there since past some years; the porous border there, the kind of govt.s those states have had (in dastardly active collusion), the effects of all those are coming up and the situation's deteriorating, while the sufferers still suffer in more-or-less silence.
