On Friday (11th April), Muslim mobs attacked a shop run by a Hindu couple and decimated it completely in the garb of protests against the Waqf Amendment Act.
The incident occurred in Samserganj in the Murshidabad district of West Bengal. The Hindu couple lost their livelihood and an established source of income.
While breaking down in tears, the owner of the shop said, “I had a sweet shop here.” He then pointed towards his now-destroyed ‘Subha Smriti Hotel’
