"[Dr Jayanta Kumar Ray, former Centenary Professor of International Relations, Calcutta University, and former Vice-Chairman, Maulana Azad Institute of Asian Studies, found a pattern in the nature of land encroachment or gradual takeover of land in Assam. According to him, in Assam and some areas of West Bengal,] whenever Muslims form a majority in a specific area, they try to evict Hindus from that or a nearby area and often succeed. For this purpose, infiltrators initially try to resort to thefts, dacoities, murder and molestation of women. But, eventually, they do not hesitate to stage large-scale riots."
