Gopalganj (Bihar) : On the 27th of January 2023, the local Fanatics killed a Hindu youth named Ankit Kumar who had gone to buy vegetables in Basdila village near a mosque. Fanatics also attacked his friends, viz. Hari Om, Chandan Kumar, and Shivam Kumar who got injured in the attack. Ankit Kumar’s body was being taken through the village of attackers when they attacked the Hindus again. Police resorted to lathi-charge and fired rounds in the air. Now, a large Police force has been deployed in the area and there is peace but tension. There were arguments about playing cricket, which resulted in the murder. It may be mentioned here that the local Panchayat solved the dispute.

• Bihar is ruled by anti-Hindu ‘Sanyukta Janata Dal (SJD)’ and ‘Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD)’ parties; therefore, Hindus are facing the same situation as Hindus from Pakistan.
• The people of the State need to unite and try to elect pro-Hindu rulers !
• Those, who make noise about Muslims being unsafe in this country, always keep mum on such incidents ! – Editor
