It gained’t work.— Shubhangi Sharma (@ItsShubhangi) November 28, 2021 West Bengal doesn’t solely characterize BengalisAt this time’s west Bengal is a minuscule portion of the erstwhile Bengal province dominated by the British The previous Bengal province consisted of in the present day’s West Bengal, Bangladesh, Odisha, Bihar, elements of Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, and Assam. In 1905, Curzon determined to partition the state right into a Muslim and a Hindu majority. However, the thought didn’t bode properly for the Hindus and the state needed to be reunified in 1911.Tripura and its temporary historical past of assimilation with IndiaPresent Tripura as a major Geographical entity got here to the fore after the second partition of Bengal in 1947. The partition witnessed the erstwhile Bengal province getting fractioned into East Bengal and West Bengal. The Hindu-majority West Bengal grew to become a state of India, and the Muslim-majority East Bengal (now Bangladesh) grew to become a province of Pakistan.Tripura, whose one half was generally known as plain Tripura and the opposite half was generally known as Hill Tripura was additionally bifurcated. While the Tippera district-erstwhile property within the plains of British India went to the present day Bangladesh, the Hill Tripura remained beneath a regency council for almost 2 extra years.In September 1949, Queen Kanchan Prabha Devi signed the instrument of accession to India, which led to Hill Tripura formally changing into a part of India. In 1956, it was declared a Union Territory by the federal government of India, which meant that it was beneath the direct administration of the Indian president. In July 1963, an elected ministry was chosen to help the President in working the administration. It was conferred full statehood in 1971 by the North-Eastern Areas (Reorganisation) Act, 1971.People of Tripura at all times welcomed Bengalis of their stateThough Tripura was as soon as generally known as a Tribal state, its rulers at all times welcomed the inflow of Bengali intellectuals within the state. According to the 1951 census, the tribes of Tripura comprised 48.65 per cent of the state, whereas 51.35 per cent was occupied by numerous migrants, the vast majority of whom had been Bengali Hindus. Among these Bengali Hindus in Tripura, an enormous chunk of Hindus had been these Bengalis who had migrated from East Pakistan after the partition of Bengal in 1947.According to an estimate printed in The Hindu, the four-year window between 1947-51 noticed almost 6,10,000 Bengalis migrating to Tripura. The Tripuraris stored welcoming Bengali Hindus within the state even after it got here beneath the direct administrative management of India. The subsequent part of mass Bengali Hindu migration witnessed greater than 1 million Bengali Hindus flocking to Tripura throughout the Bangladeshi warfare of Liberation in 1971.Most of those Bengali Hindus at the moment are completely established in Tripura and are fortunately intermingling with the native inhabitants. According to the 2001 census, Bengalis now comprise greater than 70 per cent of Tripura’s inhabitants.Mamata Banerjee doesn’t characterize Bengal anymoreSince Bengalis are almost 70 per cent of the state, it’s completely rational for Mamata Banerjee to assume that TMC employees’ goondagardi in West Bengal could be copied in Tripura as properly. The election strategists dedicated a deadly mistake by assuming that each Bengalis are the identical. Mamata Banerjee’s West Bengal doesn’t characterize the Bengali id which is known for its suave intelligence. The inflow of Bangladeshi Muslim refugees has ended up harming the Bengalis of West Bengal as Muslims comprise almost 30 per cent of the state inhabitants. The Talibanisque violence by the nexus of TMC and Islamists has led to the diminishing standing of authentic Bengalis and now they’re a feeble part of the West Bengal demography.Biplab Deb’s rise as a powerful political chief armed with a stable backing of occasion cadres within the state has given an enormous impetus to the unique Bengali spirit to re-contribute in the direction of the event of the state, ultimately resulting in the nation’s growth. The spirit of authentic Bengalis like Aurobindo Ghosh and Swami Vivekanand has resurfaced due to the tit-for-tat therapy of goonda components within the state. It’s time now for authentic Bengalis to say their identities and finish the faux dominance of contemporary west Bengal on the Bengali id horizon.
