In keeping with this theme, can you tell me any other state where a public outpouring of sympathy would have taken place-for a Muslim? Here it is not the government, in fact the government has shown that it is indeed the CPI(M)-Communist Party India (Marwadi). They have been dragging their feet on the investigation, it shows their complicity.
No, here the people of Kolkata the ordinary people have actually come out and voiced their support, have lit candles, sang songs and much more. It is these whose response is so great that the WB government has been forced to take notice of them. How often in India has a largely Hindu city responded so whole-heartedly and ungrudgingly when the person killed is a Muslim?
It shows Kolkata's humanity, its culture and spirit, which is the real fabric and fibre of a city. It is this which defines a city-its culture. Not the flyovers, malls, multiplexes, ring roads and so on that everyone today is so obsessed with. Culture is something no city can do without-and this Kolkata has shown in this incident, that however much things have slipped, the humanity present in Kolkata still exists.
I salute KOlkata's spirit. Unlike every other Indian city, there have been no Kanya Raksha Samitis, no angry protests that "we must protect our girls" and so on. the people of Kolkata have made their choice between apathy and activism. These days many stories talk about the "New Kolkata." Rest assured, the old Kolkata is the one which gives meaning.

Shame on people like you who support a convert marrying a Hindu girl.
Shame on families who let their girls go to hell. Can you imagine a girl being pushed to live in a family with thinking in 1200 BC?
I'll suffocate if I have to live my life in a Muslim way for 2 days. It's a gross injustice to girl.

Dear Gonsalves.,There is nothing to be proud of Kolkata. People ,being referred bu you, are always simply eager to pose intellactual and show themselves liberal.

The Hinhus are DEAD in Kolkata. Vaishnavism which rejuvenated in Bengal, took a hit after the rise of half muslim Vivekananda. The so called followers of Vedanta, called Vedantis, beleive more in Islam then hinduism.As a result, the Hindu thought is non-existant in Bengalees. Most Hindus, dont mind eating beef,liquor etc. Look at them, like the Keralians, their society has the largest covertees.
These Bengalees are ruled by Marwarees,punjabees and Gujjus, because, getting away from Vaishnavism, made them weak mentally.
Kai mata is a devotee of Krishna,but the Bongs chose to pray to Kali mata, and rejected Lord Krishna, and see how they have fallen.First they lost half of Bengal, then their position as a industrial base, now their businesses are wholly Marwari or Gujju or Punjabi owned.
Thats why people like Gonsalves represent Kolkata rather than a Ghosh or a Sen or a Bhattacharya.
What you see today is the END of the Begining of the Bengali Hindu race.Die Begalis, for you desrve no better!!
