Kolkata shocker: Man dies by suicide fearing deportation to Bangladesh over NRC; family says he fled Dhaka in 1972, had all papers
NEW DELHI: A man was found dead in his home on Sunday morning, with his family claiming he was overwhelmed by fears of being sent to Bangladesh. The 63-year-old was identified as Dilip Kumar Saha, who took his life fearing he would be deported if the National Register of Citizens ( NRC ) were implemented. Saha was found hanging from a ceiling fan in his room at his residence in Kolkata's Anandapally West, located in the Regent Park area. According to police, a suicide note was recovered from the room. Preliminary investigations suggested he may have taken his own life due to stress linked to concerns over his citizenship status. Saha had been living in Kolkata since 1972 after arriving from Nawabganj in Dhaka. He worked as non-teaching staff at a private school in Dhakuria, in south Kolkata. The incident came to light when his wife, Arati Saha, called out to him in the morning but received no response. She then sought help from their niece-in-law, who lives nearby. Together, they broke open the door and found him hanging. Speaking to reporters, Arati said her husband had been distressed for some time over fears he might be sent back to Bangladesh. "He has been under severe stress for quite some time regarding this. There was no other tension. He came to Kolkata in his childhood. He was afraid that he would be sent to a detention camp and then pushed back to Bangladesh, where he had nobody. He had valid voter ID card and other documents," she said. Police confirmed that the matter is under investigation and said the contents of the suicide note are being examined as part of the inquiry. Local MLA and state power minister Arup Biswas visited the family shortly after the incident and expressed concern over the reported circumstances of Saha's death. "This is what the fear of being thrown out of the country could do to a man. What they (Centre) have started in the name of the SIR shows their anti-people attitude, and the result is in front of you," Biswas said. Authorities have not officially confirmed whether NRC fears were the direct cause of the suicide.

1 cop, 3 terrorists killed as militants ambush police checkpost in Pakistan
Agency: PTI Peshawar, Aug 3 (PTI) One law enforcement personnel and three terrorists were killed when a group of nearly 50 militants ambushed a police checkpost in Pakistan's restive Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, officials said on Sunday. Heavily armed terrorists attacked the Fateh Khel police checkpost in the Bannu district late Saturday night, police said. According to DIG Bannu, a group of 40 to 50 terrorists had attacked the checkpost. Police retaliated, and in the exchange of fire, one policeman and three attackers were killed, and the rest managed to flee. Two police constables were also injured in the attack. Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi condemned the attack and paid tribute to the slain policeman. No group has so far claimed responsibility for the attack. Over the past few months, several areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa — including Bannu, Peshawar, Karak, Lakki Marwat, and Bajaur — have seen a series of militant attacks. Last week, six law enforcement personnel were injured in a quadcopter attack on the Miryan police station in Bannu. In July, three terrorists were killed in an intelligence-based operation in Bannu, while another died in an encounter with police in the Malakand district.

West Bengal CM Mamata to hold virtual meet with TMC MPs on Aug 4 amid Parliament logjam over SIR
KOLKATA: West Bengal Chief Minister and the Trinamool Congress Chairperson, Mamata Banerjee, is scheduled to hold an important virtual meeting with her party's Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha MPs on August 4. The meeting assumes political significance for several reasons, as it coincides with the ongoing monsoon session of the Parliament. Since the beginning of the monsoon session on July 21, the Trinamool Congress has been particularly vocal about the Election Commission of India's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise, both inside and outside of the Parliament. A section of the Opposition parties considers the SIR process as a 'conspiracy' to exclude names of Opposition voters from the voter lists.
