"In the last five months, five BJP minority members have been killed in Birbhum district. More than 100 have been injured, 25 very seriously. Ruling TMC goons are particularly targeting minorities who have joined BJP or have become its sympathisers. The reign of terror is very palpable," it said in a memorendum submitted to Naqvi.
Urging him to send a team to understand the ground reality, the party leaders said this will provide him with first-hand details of the atrocities and give a long way in "restoring the feeling of confidence in the minds of the minorities".
The leaders alleged that there was evidence to suggest that people belonging to TMC were permitted to enter a village freely and continue the reign of terror unabated.
"This highly partisan act of the police is condemnable," they said.
The TMC government has made the State Minority Commission and the State Human Rights Commission completely defunct, they alleged.
