Durga pujas (silver jubilee)

Organised by Bangiya Sanskritik Pariseba - Mayur Vihar - III

The tradition of community  in the Capital gathered momentum when the capital of the British Raj shifted from Kolkata to Delhi in 1911 and employees of various government offices moved en masse to the city with their families.

A little before that, Bengalis who had settled around Kashmere Gate gave birth to the eponymous Durga Puja that turns 100 this year. The employees of the Government of India Press, which had shifted from Kolkata to New Delhi, were behind the Minto Road Durga Puja, which has entered its 71st year.

Another major cultural hub that developed in the early years was the New Delhi Kali Bari on Mandir Marg, whose Durga Puja draws Bengalis from all over India. Other prominent Durga pujas dating back to the pre-Independence years are Timarpur and the Karol Bagh Bangiya Samsad.

Justice for ‪Rajath Menon‬:Hundreds of residents hold meeting to check sale of drugs

Four days after 14-year-old Rajath Menon was allegedly beaten to death in East Delhi’s Mayur Vihar Phase 3 by two brothers, hundreds of residents including Rajath’s parents held a meeting at a community centre to keep to check on the sale of drugs in the area.

During the meeting, the residents formed a committee to keep track of the sale of drugs in the area. It is alleged that two brothers, who were the sons of a man running a paan shop in the area, accused Rajath of stealing “something from their shop”. The two brothers later took Rajath to a park and allegedly had a scuffle with him, which led to his death. Residents alleged that the son of of the paan shop owner sold drugs in the area.




A resident said that the sale of drugs in the area is never taken seriously. “The police and the the authorities are acting after Rajath’s death. We have decided to stop the drug menace now, at this point,” he added.
Meanwhile the relatives of the victim demanded that the two brothers — who claimed to be minors — be tried as adults in this case. “We met the police officer and requested them to treat them as adults. They have said that they are looking into the matter,” said Laxmi Kant, a relative of Rajath.

Regarding : Condolence meeting & formation of action council

As you all know, a 14 year old boy named Rajat s/o Mr Unnikrishnan (PKT 1, MIG) was murdered on 29th June in Mayur Vihar Phase 3 market. From the very beginning the police investigation was biased. Even though there were ample evidences and witnesses the police did not file an FIR or arrest the accused. After such heinous crime the culprits were roaming free fearless which is not possible without the help of local police. Police took action after peoples starts massive protest. It is our duty to ensure that the accused can not influence the eyewitnesses or the authorities concerned in future.

It is bitter truth that a nexus is operating in Mayur Vihar Phase 3 and distributing drugs through some pan shops. Most of the parks over here become a safe spot for anti social elements engaging in such illegal activities. This has become a threat to the harmony and well being of people and hence it is our duty to make sure that such activities do not thrive any further. Peoples vigilance is the only solution here.

To protest against this incident, to discuss above mentioned problems and to form an action council everyone is requested to assemble at Pocket A1, Pookalam park on Sunday, 3rd July at 3pm. This will be followed by a candle light march.
