Along with it Tapan Ghosh, founder of Hindu Samhati laid the road-map for the Hindu Samhati movement by welcoming a 14 member Muslim family into the Hindu fold. In the rally journalists provoked Hindu Samhati volunteers leading to a minor scuffle.
Tapan Ghosh, or Tapan da as he is refereed to with respect, the fire-brand Hindu leader from India founded Hindu Samhati in 2008. Hindu Samhati is a non-political organization which serves the poorest of poor Hindus in the Eastern part of India plagued by Jihadist violence. The event was to mark 10 year anniversary of its foundation. Tapan da was far away from the scene of the incident. However the Mamata Banerjee administration arrested Tapan da and put him in prison immediately after the event. Five days have passed and Tapan da’s illegal detention continues.
