Communal tension erupts in Siliguri; VHP calls 24-hour bandh on Monday
The Statesman Siliguri
|June 01, 2025
Communal tension flared up in the Matigara area under the Siliguri Police Commissionerate following attacks on several Hindu families and business establishments.
In response, the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has called a 24-hour bandh in Siliguri sub-division on Monday.
The unrest began on Friday evening when members of the Bajrang Dal intercepted a vehicle allegedly transporting beef from the Naxalbari area, near the Balason Bridge. The vehicle was reportedly set on fire at the spot. Police later arrested three individuals, including one Amit Gupta. All three were produced in court today.
Despite the arrests, tension escalated on Saturday as a large group of youths from the Muslim community gathered outside the Matigara police station in protest. According to local sources, the group, some allegedly armed, attacked the residence of Amit Gupta, injuring several family members, including a child. The injured were admitted to hospital for treatment.
