shikh Community Raises Concerns Over Sukanta Majumdar’s Actions, Threatens Protest
In a recent incident that has sparked outrage among the sikh community, Sukanta Majumdar, the state president of the BJP, faces allegations of hurting religious sentiments. The controversy erupted after a video surfaced showing Majumdar throwing a symbolic Hawaiian slipper from a police van, which landed on the turban of a Sikh individual. Community representatives have demanded an apology, warning of important protests if their concerns are not addressed.
during a press conference on Sunday, Sikh leaders expressed their discontent, stating that Majumdar’s actions were disrespectful and offensive. They have lodged a formal complaint with the police, emphasizing the need for accountability. In a twist, Majumdar has countered these claims, questioning whether the individual whose turban was affected has filed an FIR. He also accused the ruling party, led by Mamata Banerjee, of politicizing the issue.
The slipper, made of paper and intended as a symbolic gesture, was thrown towards the police, not directly at the Sikh individual. Majumdar’s supporters argue that the incident has been blown out of proportion, suggesting that the opposition is using it as a political tool. As tensions rise, the Sikh community remains firm in their stance, highlighting the importance of respect and understanding in a diverse society.
