From Prof Biswajit Dhar, a resident of Chittaranjan Park: Yesterday (Saturday 17 October) evening, about 20 CRPF jawans armed with lathis marched into the B Block Puja Pandal in CR Park at 11.30 pm, when large number of people were celebrating the festival with family and friends. The Puja Committee members strongly protested against this intrusion and chased them out. I took this video when they were outside the main gate. Several of us lent our voices in support of the Puja Committee members arguing that any police interference in our most important festival was just not acceptable. Durga Puja is not a festival for only the Bengalis, but all other communities also get together to enjoy themselves. This is what I have seen for as long I can remember. Why then were paramilitary forces sent to spoil the atmosphere in such a festival? Should we now expect intimidation by the paramilitary forces whenever we congregate? We must demand answers before it is too late.
