According to locals, the hands of the Kali Mata are broken and the head of Bhagwan Shiva also is broken. Besides, other things which are used in the Puja, are also vandalised. As of now, no one has been arrested.
Notably, Hindus are the minority in the district of Murshidabad. Often, Hindu temples come under attack in the different parts of the district. Also, abductions of Hindu girls were reported earlier. Last year, in the month of November, unknown miscreants attacked a Kali Mata temple in the Baranya block of the district. Miscreants cut the head of the Bhagwan Shiva and fled.
In the same month of November last year, a Muslim youth entered a Shiva temple in the Salar block of the district and urinated on the Shivalinga. And in most of the cases, the Police arrested Muslim youths. But, later, the arrested youths were levelled as mentally unstable.
