‘Encourages conversions’: BJP slams Mamata government’s stand on OBC list; calls it ‘dangerous precedent’
Wednesday, 11 June 2025 () The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has accused West Bengal's Mamata Banerjee government of promoting religious conversions by granting OBC status to Christian converts. BJP alleges the state's OBC list favors Muslims, increasing their representation significantly since 2010. This move, according to BJP, is a blatant appeasement tactic for vote-bank politics, disregarding a Supreme Court ruling against religion-based reservations.

Oneindia's exclusive ground report captures the harsh reality of the Murshidabad Waqf Violence in West Bengal. As communal tensions rise and over 400 Hindu families are reportedly forced to flee, we ask the hard-hitting questions: Is Mamata Banerjee losing control? Why is there no police accountability? Who is orchestrating this unrest? The Murshidabad Waqf Violence has become a symbol of religious radicalism, political silence and administrative breakdown. Voices from Murshidabad speak louder than ever—this is not just about Waqf land anymore, it’s about India’s constitutional fabric. Watch as we uncover layers of fear, anger and helplessness in the wake of the Murshidabad Waqf Violence.

The Murshidabad Waqf Violence has shaken the very conscience of the nation. What began as legislative reform through the Waqf Amendment Act has now turned into a brutal reminder of how communal tensions can be weaponised. In Murshidabad, West Bengal, Hindu families are fleeing, internet has been suspended, and over 150 arrests have been made. A shocking video of threats being issued to Hindus has gone viral, sparking debates on radicalisation, law and order and state complicity. Is this mere protest or a deeper network at play? Why is Mamata Banerjee silent? Has the Waqf Amendment been hijacked for vote-bank politics? We explore how Murshidabad Waqf Violence reveals the cracks in Bengal’s governance. The Murshidabad Waqf Violence is no longer a local issue—it’s a national alarm bell.

Assassinations, Jihad Attacks On U.S. Officials – Including Trump, Vance, Rubio, Hegseth And Their Families - Elon Musk And His Companies, U.S. Military, Microsoft, And Targeting Jews In America And Europe: 'There Are No Red Lines.' Al-Awlaki urged Muslims to revive the "tradition of assassinations," describing it as the "greatest form of Jihad today." He said the targets should be the "leaders of apostasy," whom he labeled "Jewish Arabs," specifically naming the leaders of Egypt, Jordan, and the Gulf states.
He appealed directly to military personnel in Arab countries, calling on them to take action. He said Arab pilots should strike "the Jews," U.S. military bases in the region, and American aircraft carriers. At the very least, he said, they should attack the palaces of Arab leaders, describing these as the "initial steps" that must be taken.
Al-Awlaki claimed there are 4.5 million Muslims in the United States and said that they should carry out acts of retaliation without hesitation, stating: "Do not consult anyone about killing infidel Americans." Speaking over images of Manhattan skyscrapers, he said that the list of targets should be "effective," and declared: "There are no red lines."

Between 2010 and 2020, the world’s population grew—and so did most major religious groups. Christianity remains the largest religion at 2.3 billion, but its global share fell to 28.8% as more people left the faith, especially in Western nations. Islam experienced the fastest growth, adding 347 million to reach 2 billion globally, fueled by high fertility rates and youthful populations. Meanwhile, the religiously unaffiliated rose to 24.2%, driven by secular trends in countries like China, the U.S., and Japan. Demographic shifts suggest Islam could match Christianity by mid-century.
