1) Except for tweets by @From_Himalaya, @/dikgaj, @biswa_gh, @shardula23 everything written in this thread is unadulterated bullshit.
Pure shakha level stuff. Most Young Virat Hindus from Bengal dont read. Too much anti intellectualism. https://twitter.com/Mudslime_viper/status/1262330639208124416?s=19

2) Bengalis became "Liberals" & "Leftists" to save themselves from J€h@dis ? 
Bengali Left grew in 1950/60s among the Hindu refugees of partition bcoz after SPM's death it was the LEFT which bcame voice of Hindu refugees much like Jana sangh in north https://twitter.com/BHATTACHARYA_27/status/1262332024083247106?s=19

3) Only Rajputs r kshatriyas ? Bagdis, Sadgops, Mahishyas ensured Rarh (esp Mallabhum, the hilly dry forested western tracts of Bengal) never really fell into M hands
Tradition of bearing arms can still be seen in these regions.. https://twitter.com/BHATTACHARYA_27/status/1262339452531163139?s=19

4) Regarding trade, numerous "Banik" castes (Subarnabanik, Gandhabanik etc) + communities of artisans & craftsmen (clubbed together as Nabasakhs, term which went out of fashion more than 100 yrs back) also dominated trade & commerce. https://twitter.com/BHATTACHARYA_27/status/1262339452531163139?s=19
5) Btw what % of Bengali UCs adopted "British culture" & "British ultraliberalism" ??
Far more North Indian elites adopted the ways of Mughals during the middle ages. "High culture" of UP still revolves around Urdu, Shero shayari , Ghazals, Qawwali etc. https://twitter.com/BHATTACHARYA_27/status/1262338573262417920?s=19

6) Never read any census reports ? In 1931, 45% of Bengal was comprised of castes/tribes which r today classified as sc & st
If most converted before 1931 (i presume during Mughal era), then pre mughal Bengali Hindu society had 80% sc & st combined ?

7) Bengali M's r twice the number of Hindus.
That means overwhelming majority of Hindus "converted" ? Bengali Hindus were a majority (52%) in 1881 census. Were 2/3 rd majority by 1750s. The fall in H % was bcoz of lower birth rates than "Conversions". https://twitter.com/BHATTACHARYA_27/status/1262340750617935872?s=19

9) As for getting rid of M's, such campaigns in 1947 were state sponsored. Congress & princely states had enforced a population exchange.
Same congress in 1947 backed out of any such venture in Bengal & Assam. https://twitter.com/BHATTACHARYA_27/status/1262477919642726400?s=19

10) Yet, 9 Lakh M's were driven out of Bengal between 1947 & 1950. With 2 million+ Hindus coming from that side.
Post Nehru liaqat pact was signed, supported by Patel, & 5 Lakh M's were brought back to Bengal from East Pak & 5 Lakh Hindus sent back. https://twitter.com/BHATTACHARYA_27/status/1262477919642726400?s=19

11) So the British categorizing Bengali Hindus "Non martial" is a matter of shame for this guy ! Joining British Indian Army, getting yourself registered as "Martial" so that u can torture your fellow Hindus is a matter of pride ?
