West Bengal Police, on Saturday, cautioned the people of possible communal tension in the state on the occasion of Ram Navami festival on 6 April.
The alert was issued at a joint press conference addressed by the Additional Director General (Law & Order) Javed Shamim and Additional Director General (South Bengal) Supratim Sarkar on Saturday.
Sarkar told media persons that they have got specific intelligence inputs on some vested interests trying to instigate violence in the coming days.
"There are plans to instigate people through different posters or posts. The police are on alert. There might be attempts to instigate tension among people from different communities, especially focusing on the occasion of Ram Navami. We requested people not to get instigated. There is no need to worry. But at the same time, we also request people to alert the local police in case they notice any suspicious activities in their respective areas," said Sarkar.
Echoing Sarkar, Shamim said that special precautions are being taken considering the festive days soon.
"Eid and Ram Navami festivals will be celebrated. There might be attempts to instigate hatred and tension among people by some vested interests. Do not be excited by any rumor. Keep a watch on your respective areas. Inform the police in case of any doubtful activities. We are here to help you on a 24x7 basis. We are determined to prevent any attempt to vitiate the atmosphere of peace in the state," Shamim said.
