Days after violent protests rocked Dhuliyan town in Murshidabad's Jangipur sub-division over the Waqf (Amendment) Act, the situation is reportedly under control, according to officials.
Trinamool Congress MP Khalilur Rahaman from the Jangipur constituency said on Sunday that initial findings indicate the perpetrators of communal violence in certain areas of the minority-dominated Murshidabad district of West Bengal, which has been tense in recent days due to protests against the Waqf (Amendment) Act, were primarily outsiders and not residents of the district.
Parts of Jangipur and adjoining areas in Murshidabad remained tense on Wednesday following violent protests over the amended Waqf Act.
Jaidur Rahaman, the Congress candidate from Samsherganj, accused TMC of violence and unfair polls. The TMC goons allegedly rigged polls in areas like Bhasaipaikar, Dogachhi while TMC’s attempt to do the same was foiled by voters in many booths.
The question of security, law and order has always been a key issue at Jangipur, Das said adding the TMC candidate, Jakir Hossain himself is a blast victim who luckily survived the attack caused by the TMC infighting.
In the minority-dominated districts of Murshidabad and Malda in North Bengal, the Congress too is a major contender for Muslim votes.
