Kolkata, July 24 (Reporter) West Bengal ruling Trinamool Congress today welcomed the Patiala House Court's stay order on eviction of Bengali-speaking people from Delhi's Jai Hind Colony, saying it was a significant step forward for the ongoing fight for justice. "The eviction of Bengalis in Jai Hind Colony of Delhi's Vasant Kunj has been stayed by the Patiala House Court, marking a significant step forward in our ongoing fight for justice," TMC said in a statement. "This is a direct and decisive response to the continued targeting of Bengali-speaking citizens by the Modi-led government," the All India Trinamool Congress said in a statement. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee recently accused the BJP of unleashing “linguistic terrorism” on Bengalis, asserting that the fight for identity and language would continue until the saffron party is defeated. She said the Bengali-speaking people have been harassed in the name of identifying illegal Bangladeshi immigrants in different parts of India, particularly in the BJP-led NDA-ruled states. " Under the leadership of Mamata Banerjee, we reaffirm our stand: every Bengali will be protected, and every act of injustice will be resisted. This is just the beginning. Our fight for dignity, recognition, and justice for Bengali-speaking Indians will continue with full force. Joy Bangla!" the TMC statement said after the Delhi court stayed eviction of people from Jai Hind Colony today. The TMC also said the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Bihar was a sinister attempt to disenfranchise millions, especially the poor and vulnerable people of the country. "This is NRC by stealth, a back door citizenship verification drive masquerading as voter list update. With the ECI acting as a willing enabler, the BJP is plotting to redraw the voter base in its favour," the TMC alleged. "We will oppose every attempt to undermine democracy and strip rightful Indian citizens of their voice and vote. The cornerstone of any functioning democracy is the conduct of free and fair elections," the party said...////...
