The Odisha News Insight came across one such person, who claims to be working with BJP’s IT Cell in Bengaluru. At the same time, he cites his past experience as Philips, present employment with Wipro Technologies as potential employers as Dell and OpenText. As expected, such people always operate under disguise and launch a propaganda, while providing misleading facts and personal information so that they are not exposed in public domain.
We are talking about Bimal Barik, who originally hails from Khapuria in Cuttack district of Odisha, but has made a base in Bengaluru in Karnataka. His Twitter profile reads as ‘Bitter Truth’ and he speaks more and more against Muslims. He claims to be associated with RSS since Class 8.
As seen in many WhatsApp Group and Facebook debates (we have evidences), Bimal works on an agenda to slam Muslims, Islam and spreading false news. He definitely has a good grasp over English language, but his postings and comments are enough to instigate the other community and incite communal passions. He even calls Rahul Gandhi as ‘Rahul Khan’.
People close to Bimal Barik, who have been with him on WhatsApp and Facebook, believe that he is suffering from a personality disorder like many others in IT industry and he seriously needs medical attention. Well, it’s difficult to say, as his friends are not medical experts. But, there is something that definitely needs attention.
Rather than Bimal or BJP, the IT companies will have to do self-introspection. Do they subject their employees to rigorous scrutiny and browse through their social profiles to dig deeper? If not, they need to reconsider their approach now or never…
