    The President offered prayers at the Deoghar temple in Jharkhand

    Ranchi (IANS) | President Draupadi Murmu has reached Jharkhand today on a three-day visit. He offered prayers at the famous Baba Vaidyanath temple in Deoghar and the temple of Maa Parvati located in the same premises. According to mythological beliefs, Baba Vaidyanath of Deoghar is one of the 12 Jyotirlingas of Lord Shankar. Its fame is in the form of Manokamna Jyotiling. Draupadi Murmu is the fourth President, who offered prayers at this temple. Before this, Dr. Rajendra Prasad, Pranab Mukherjee and Ramnath Kovind have worshiped as President. While being the Governor of Jharkhand, Draupadi Murmu has been coming here many times before for worship. Prime Minister Narendra Modi also offered prayers at this temple in July last year.

    The President anointed the Jyotirlinga with water, milk, panchamrit and then offered flowers, belpatra, madar, dhatura amidst chanting of mantras. After the puja, the President shared pictures on his Twitter handle and wrote that he prayed for the welfare of all the countrymen by performing the puja.

    This very ancient temple of Deoghar has been the center of faith for hundreds of years. Manoj Kumar Mishra of Dharmarakshini Samaj in Panda Deoghar said that in mythological beliefs, Deoghar is called Hridayapeeth because the heart of Mother Sati had fallen here. Devotees believe that every wish is fulfilled by worshiping here with a true heart.

    Great spiritual saints Ramakrishna Paramhansa and Swami Vivekananda also worshiped Baba Baidyanath at Deoghar. Swami Vivekananda first came to Deoghar in 1887. It is said that Swami Vivekananda was very unwell in those days. His colleagues had advised him to go to Deoghar for health benefits. Even after this he came here two or three times.

    Sunil Jha, who researches the history of the temple, says that Mahatma Gandhi, the father of the nation, had visited Deoghar twice. First time in 1925 and second time in 1934. In those days, a system of discrimination was made in this temple on the basis of character and caste. People from castes considered low were not allowed to enter inside the sanctum sanctorum of the temple. When Mahatma Gandhi came to know about this, he did Satyagraha and ensured the entry of people of all classes in the temple.

    The first President of the country, Dr. Rajendra Prasad, reached here and worshiped a few months after taking the oath of the highest constitutional post.

  • BJP bid- next time when our government is formed in Jharkhand, mini NRC in Santhal Pargana

    BJP bid- next time when our government is formed in Jharkhand, mini NRC in Santhal Pargana

    Ranchi (IANS) | The BJP has attacked the state government over Bangladeshi infiltration in Jharkhand. Two former chief ministers of the state, Babulal Marandi and Raghuvar Das, have even demanded their resignation, holding the present government responsible for this.

    Former Jharkhand Chief Minister and BJP Legislature Party leader Babulal Marandi while talking to the media in Pakur on Saturday said that if the BJP government is formed in the state in the year 2024, Mini NRC (National Register of Citizenship) will be implemented in Santhal Pargana division. Due to the infiltration of Bangladeshis in five districts of this division, the demography itself has changed. This is a very worrying situation.

    He said that he has been raising this issue for years. There are countless cases of intrusion. There are proofs of this. But the present government of the state is giving fuel to the infiltrators. Due to the greed of vote bank, infiltrators are being given a free hand. In the coming days, the demographic balance of the entire state will deteriorate. Getting mini NRC done in Santhal Pargana is the only solution to this problem. From this it came to know who will come and settle among the people living here. Marandi said that now the court has also asked questions to the government on this issue.

    Marandi has also tweeted on this issue, the problem of infiltration in Jharkhand is taking a very formidable form. Demographic change is taking place in the entire area of Santal Pargana. Bangladeshi infiltrators are being made local residents. Because of this, a deep crisis is looming over the existence of Santal, Paharia tribals. People who put their political interests above the security of the nation and their caste-society, remember, Bangladeshi infiltrators will be selectively thrown out of the border as soon as the BJP comes to power.

    Here, BJP’s National Vice President and former Chief Minister Raghuvar Das has also said that Hemant Soren’s party JMM patronized Bangladeshi infiltration with the help of PFI to increase the base in Santhal. I had said that love and land jihad is going on in Santhal. After the High Court’s comment, the Chief Minister should resign from his post.

  • Debate again on Bangladeshi infiltration in Jharkhand Demography of five districts has changed

    Debate again on Bangladeshi infiltration in Jharkhand Demography of five districts has changed

    Ranchi (IANS) | The issue of infiltration of Bangladeshis in five districts of Jharkhand has once again sparked a debate. This time the matter is in the High Court of Jharkhand through a PIL. While hearing this on Wednesday, the High Court has sought answers from the central and state governments.

    The court has asked both the governments whether they are aware of the infiltration of Bangladeshis or not? If known, what action was taken to stop it?

    Actually, this issue has been arising since long. There have also been political allegations and counter-allegations regarding this. Union Home Minister Amit Shah held a rally in Chaibasa, Jharkhand on January 7 this year and then in Chaibasa on February 4, during which he raised the issue of Bangladeshi infiltration in the state and held the current Hemant Soren government responsible for it. Was. Describing Hemant Soren as an opponent of tribals, he had said that in the greed of vote bank, he is changing the demography of the place. The number of infiltrators is increasing here. The population of tribals and backward classes is decreasing. Infiltrators are grabbing the land of tribals. They are torturing the daughters-in-law here. Infiltration is happening openly in Sahebganj, Dumka, Godda, Pakur, Jamtara and instead of stopping it, Hemant Soren is watching everything with a smile.

    BJP leader and advocate Ashwini Upadhyay had also filed a petition in the Supreme Court on this issue last year. It sought directions to the central and state governments to identify, detain and deport Bangladeshi infiltrators back to Bangladesh. After receiving notice from the court on this PIL, the state government had filed its reply along with a 15-page affidavit in May last year. The Jharkhand government, in its reply, had said that the situation in the PIL has been described as alarming, but it is based on wrong assumptions and conjectures.

    The reply filed by Prashant Kumar, IG, Special Branch of Jharkhand Police, also stated that there is already a mechanism in place to set up detention centres, holding centers and camps in various states to detain illegal immigrants or foreign nationals. Is. Jharkhand government has also built a model detention center for this in Hazaribagh.

    The internal reports of the government and its machinery tell that the demography of the five districts of Jharkhand, located close to the Bangladesh border, has changed rapidly. Lakhs of infiltrators from Bangladesh have settled in different areas of Sahibganj, Pakur, Dumka, Godda and Jamtara districts in the last three decades. Government departments have received reports from time to time to the central and state governments regarding the demographic changes taking place in these areas. In 1994, more than 17,000 Bangladeshis were identified in Sahibganj district on the orders of the Union Home Ministry. The names of these Bangladeshis were removed from the voter list, but they could not be sent back.

    In the year 2018, during the tenure of the previous Raghuvar Das government of Jharkhand, the Home Department had sent a proposal to the Center to implement NRC (National Register of Citizenship) in the entire state in view of the changed demography of the area due to Bangladeshi infiltrators. No decision could be taken from the Center on this.

    During the last budget session of the Vidhan Sabha, Rajmahal MLA Anant Ojha raised the issue of Bangladeshi infiltration in the districts of Santhal Pargana through an adjournment notice. He had said in his information that the population balance in Sahibganj district has deteriorated due to Bangladeshi infiltration since last few years. The infiltrators have become citizens of India by creating fake names and many certificates. Encroachment of government land. Taking advantage of the government resources here.

    A report was also sent from Jharkhand to the Home Department on the growing influence of Bangladeshis. It was mentioned in the report that Bangladeshis were coming to Jharkhand via Bihar and Bengal. In this, it was recommended to set up a task force to identify illegal immigrants. The figures also confirm that the Muslim population has increased unexpectedly in the districts of Jharkhand which are close to Bangladesh. For example, in Pakur, the Muslim population was 33.11 percent in 2001, which increased to 35.87 percent in 2011.

    Sporadic cases like Bangladeshi citizens being caught in Jharkhand, getting their names wrongly registered in the voter list here, Indian passports being issued to Bangladeshi citizens come every month or two.

    Intelligence agencies have also sent such reports to the governments from time to time, in which detailed details have been recorded about the modus operandi of Bangladeshis. In one such report sent to the Home Department, it has been told that in Sahibganj and Pakur of Santhal Pargana, illegal migrants have made voter IDs, Aadhaar cards, even driving licenses. The hold of banned organizations like Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh and Popular Front of India and Ansar-ul-Bangla is increasing in these areas. There are many examples that people who came from Bangladesh married local women and settled here.
