ARA-------------------------Recently, Vivek Agnihotri, the producer of films like Kashmir Files and Tashkent Files, has released the trailer of a film named "Bengal Files". On the occasion of promotion, a huge uproar was created in Kolkata against his film. Now the trailer of the Bengal Files film has been released on YouTube and especially the discussion of an anonymous hero "Gopal Patha" has started. Google Wikipedia has deleted its information about Gopal Patha, calling him a fictional character. Let us know who is Gopal Patha?

Also known as Gopal Mukherjee or Gopal Patha, played an important role in protecting Hindus during the Direct Action Day in Bengal in 1946. The day was organized by the Muslim League demanding the partition of British India and the creation of Pakistan, which led to widespread violence and riots.

Gopal Patha led a resistance to protect Hindus. He converted his Indian ethnic corps into a defence force and began protecting Hindu settlements. His efforts helped secure Hindu areas and forced the rioters to retreat.

Gopal Patha did not follow Mahatma Gandhi's principle of non-violence and decided to take up arms. He called his wrestlers and gave them weapons. A Marwari businessman provided him financial help. Local blacksmiths made weapons overnight. Gopal Patha had weapons from World War II and American pistols. His strategy was that if one Hindu was killed, he would kill ten rioters. Gopal Patha's bravery and principle of power balance are relevant even today.
