A Muslim youth from West Bengal’s Murshidabad district, identified as Rahul Islam, was allegedly assaulted in Odisha’s Ganjam district by a group of men who forced him to chant religious slogans such as 'Jai Shri Ram' and 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai'. The attackers reportedly accused him of being a 'Bangladeshi' and a 'Rohingya' after questioning his identity documents. Following the incident, migrant workers’ groups lodged complaints with the Odisha Police, the National Minority Commission, and the National Human Rights Commission. The Odisha government recently stated that thousands of undocumented Bangladeshis had been identified in the state, prompting intensified identity checks since the BJP came to power. Labor unions claim over 300 migrant workers have been detained in the past 10 days. Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has threatened legal action against the Odisha Police. Rahul Islam sustained injuries and returned to Murshidabad out of fear. Police maintain that identity verification is ongoing and no deportations have occurred.
