At a Hindu Suraksha Samiti regional meeting, its founder Abhijit Chandra Das delivered an anti-Muslim hate speech, warning that Muslims would allegedly r*pe and kidnap Hindu women, burn homes, loot communities, and attack Hindu villages. He invoked Partition and the displacement of Hindus from Bangladesh to claim that Muslims had sought a separate country because they could not live with Hindus, questioning why they were still living in West Bengal. Das also criticised Muslims for benefiting from government schemes such as Annapurna Yojana and Ayushman Yojana, while claiming that taxpayers were funding madrasas. He further warned that Hindus would be forced to abandon their faith without BJP rule and called for Hindus to arm themselves and expel Muslims to Bangladesh.
