A recent incident in the Ujjain district of Madhya Pradesh has not only shaken the law and order but also exposed the deep-seated superstition and the dark shadow of black magic and occult practices prevalent in society. This is not a fictional story, but a real incident where, driven by the desire to become rich overnight, some individuals exhumed a body from a cemetery to perform tantric rituals.
The incident took place in the village of Dodiya, under the Khachrod police station area of Ujjain. On the night of February 25th, after a villager invited some occult practitioners, a body was exhumed from the village cemetery. The incident came to light when villagers discovered open graves in the morning and informed the police. Investigations revealed that the entire matter was linked to tantric practices and black magic, aimed at gaining financial benefits through these methods.
The Grip of Black Magic: A Tale of Greed
When superstition and greed combine, a person crosses the boundaries of humanity. Kachru Chandravanshi of Dodiya village had invited some occult practitioners to his home a day before Shivratri. It is said that he had called them to perform a special tantric ritual of black magic, which required a human corpse.
At the behest of the occult practitioners, a grave was dug in the cemetery under the cover of darkness, and a body was removed. In the morning, when the villagers saw the dug-up graves, a sensation spread throughout the village. The family members and villagers immediately informed the police.
Strict Police Action
As soon as the Khachrod police station received information about the case, the station in-charge, Dhansingh Nalwaya, reached the spot and began the investigation. He started scrutinizing the footage from the CCTV cameras installed in the village. Suspicious activities were recorded in the footage, providing the police with crucial clues.
Based on information from informants and the footage, the police have arrested three accused. One of the accused is a resident of Dodiya village, and the other two are residents of the Banswara district of Rajasthan. The police questioned the accused and found out that they had committed this act with the aim of obtaining money through tantric practices.
From the Cemetery to the Well: Recovery of a Skeleton
Furthering the investigation, the police also conducted a search operation in an old well, from where human skeletal remains were recovered. This confirms that human body parts were used in the tantric rituals. The police have registered a case against the accused under various sections, including desecration of a corpse, theft of a body from a grave, and spreading superstition.
The Administration's Message and Society's Responsibility
SDOP Pushpa Prajapati, commenting on the entire matter, said that this is a very serious incident that exposes the truth of superstition prevalent in society. She said that people should not fall for such fake occult practitioners and stay away from such superstitions.
She also stated that the police administration would take strict action against anyone found involved in such acts. Furthermore, she appealed to the society to immediately inform the police if any suspicious activities of this nature are observed anywhere.
Crime Under the Guise of Superstition
This incident is not just a crime but a symbol of a social disease that has taken root in our society for years. Black magic, tantric practices, and superstitions are still active in many villages and towns. People's compulsions, poverty, or greed promote these superstitious forces. Many times, these fake occult practitioners mislead innocent people and push them into the world of crime.
This is what happened in this case as well – the dream of becoming rich overnight pushed a villager into the quagmire of crime. Now, he is not only caught in the clutches of the law but is also suffering from social disgrace and self-reproach.
This incident in Ujjain should not be limited to police action alone; it should be seen as a warning. This is the time when we should recognize the roots of superstition and collectively come forward to uproot them. Crimes committed under the guise of black magic and tantric practices can be stopped not just by law but also by social awareness.
