Sat Oct 30, 2021: An idol of Hindu Goddess Kali
was vandalised by unidentified criminals at a
temple in Bogura’s Dhunat upazila last night.
Criminals vandalised the idol and took its head,
reports our local correspondent quoting temple
authority.
The incident took place at Sultanhata Kali
temple under the Kalerpara union of the upazila
last night, said Poresh Chandra Shil, president of
the temple committee. “The temple is very old
and locals have been worshipping the Goddess
Kali here for long. Today around 9am, a
worshiper was passing by the temple and noticed
the vandalism,” he said.
“For many decades, we have lived in communal
harmony. We couldn’t believe it could happen in
our own village,” he added. Kripa Sindhubala,
officer-in-charge of the Dhunat Police Station,
said, “We are trying to identify the criminals
involved. We will take action against them.”
