Under Mamata Banerjee’s regime, unrest and distrust defines and dominates the atmosphere in the state. There is a no sphere, be it political, social or religious which is today free from violence and instability. It is well known that from this very land of Bengal, Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore had given the message of peace and unity to the whole world by establishing Visva Bharati at Santiniketan.

  • West Bengal a Warning for India the Decline of West Bengal Is a Clear Indicator of the Grim Wages of Political Brinkmanship
    Culture & Pluralism of Bengal Under Seize State Patronage to Communalism — Editorial Advisor — Prof. Rakesh Sinha — Editorial Desk — Dr. Alok Sharma, Dr. Geeta Bhatt & Ananya Sanyal Research Assitance Vaishali Raj, Preeti Kalra, Bhanu Kumar Editorial Assistance Shiv Kumar Singh Published by INDIA POLICY FOUNDATION New Delhi-110016 Email: [email protected] Website: www.indiapolicyfoundation.org © India Policy Foundation Edition First, March 2017 ISBN: 978-93-84835-21-7 Price: 80/- Designed by SBM DIGITECH Preface Situation in West Bengal a Warning for India The decline of West Bengal is a clear indicator of the grim wages of political brinkmanship. The economy of the state is in shambles and society is fractured by communalism. This decadence marks a departure from the Bengal that was the depository of rich legacy in culture, science, spirituality and economy. Great sons of the land impacted the nation’s destiny by their unmatched contributions. Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Ramakrishna Parmahans, Swami Vivekananda, Ishwarchandra Vidyasagar, Bankim Chandra, Rabindranath Tagore, Subhash Chandra Bose, Dr. Syamaprasad Mookerjee and Trailokya Nath Chakravarty are a few names among many more who left an indelible mark on India’s history. During the freedom struggle Bengal was a breeding ground of revolutionaries. Why does West Bengal present such a miserable picture now? Political brinkmanship is a major reason for its fall. Both Marxists and Mamata have destroyed it. Punjab and Bengal suffered the most during Partition, with killings of innocents driven by religious frenzy becoming their horrifying narrative. Pro-Pakistan elements, realizing that mere propaganda was not enough to create Muslim mass support for Pakistan used conspiracy theories to convince Muslims that poverty, unemployment and illiteracy were the handiwork of Hindus; the colonial regime backed this propaganda by forming the one-man Hunter Committee to ‘ascertain’ the reasons of Muslim backwardness.
