Land belonging to Hindu Minority at Lalmohan P.S. under Bhola District forcefully occupied in Bangladesh claiming to be successor (The daily Ajker Kagoj dated 2 July, 2006)
On 27th June 2006 the armed cadres of Nazrul Islam after conversion from Hinduism to Islam 50 years back claiming to be the owner and successor of the landed property belonging to a Hindu family were forcefully occupied at village Charbhuta Taraganj-Lalmohan P.S. Bhola District.
It is reported by the U.P. Member – Abul Kalam of the said union one Gouranga Bala and Biswajit Bala purchased 34 sataks of land in the year 1961 and they were peacefully owning and possessing the said land without any interference. But on the last week Nazrul Islam claimed and applied for returning back said land at local Union Parishad. The local Chairman fixed a date of hearing of the application on 5th of July 06 for verification. As the present Chairman of the locality staying at Dhaka for his official works the cadres of Nazrul Islam with BNP personnel forcefully entered into the premises of the Hindu owner Gouranga Bala and Biswajit Bala, evicted them and occupied the land.
Nazrul Islam claimed that his grand father Ramesh Chandra converted to Islam and abandoned this house 50 years back. On the other hand Gouranga Bala informed that in the year 1961 the relatives of Ramesh Chandra purchased this property from their legal owner and the claim of Nazrul is fake, motivated and harassing.
This incident of forceful occupation of land belonging to Hindu family created a sense of curiosity in the locality.
