💨 Abstract

In West Bengal's Murshidabad district, communal violence has led to hundreds of people fleeing to Malda, seeking shelter. The violence, sparked by protests against the Waqf (Amendment) Act, resulted in burned shops, hotels, and houses in affected areas. A young woman reported being molested and homes set on fire, while an elderly woman described being forced to flee with their belongings to save their lives.
