Far as I can see, the difference is because of the topography of the two Bengals. West Bengal, especially the part west of the Bhagirathi-Hooghly River is largely accessible on foot. East Bengal, low lying, criss-crossed by rivers is not. That's why Adi Sankara probably could not visit East Bengal which remained Buddhist and easily converted to Islam. Just like once-Buddhist Afghanistan and Xinjiang.<br />As for Tirthasalil Sil (what a beautiful Hindu name) what is he waiting for?Tathagata Royhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08161763539488831788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045385079227200405.post-61770058269166407512015-09-08T10:44:32.192-07:002015-09-08T10:44:32.192-07:00I want to get rid of my hindu identity and peaple ...I want to get rid of my hindu identity and peaple like you are the reasonAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02911042684881219484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045385079227200405.post-48791648425878673182015-08-23T23:43:35.971-07:002015-08-23T23:43:35.971-07:00Quite interesting.

Are there any historical evidences / references that support presence of such large proportion of Buddhists in East Bengal? Why were Buddhists so unevenly distributed between East and West Bengals?

So far I can recollect that Budhadev Bhattacherjee had celebrated in Murshidabad for increase in Muslim population of 65%. TMC is extending appeasement to the Muslims unethically for vote bank politics. Due to Madrasa education Muslim community will never get themselves mingled with Hindus. Both CPM & TMC do not want to strengthen our unity. In Bangladesh minority Hindus are getting reduced to an alarming situation. Hindus are being oppressed by Muslim in WB. CPM & TMC have already ignited in such a way that one day or other this Muslim community will demand a separate sovereign State from Bengal. These two parties are crying for Yakub Memon for mercy but they never cry for thousands of Kashmiri Pundits.
