Marichjhanpi is an island set in the mangrove forests of the Sundarbans in West Bengal, India. It is mostly remembered today for the incident in 1979 when the newly elected Communist Party of India (Marxist) government of West Bengal evicted several Bengali refugees who had occupied the reserved forest land on the island by force. The clash between armed miscreants and the police resulted in about 20 deaths; although the exact number is unknown, researchers believe that several collateral deaths took place from violent clashes, alleged police brutality, and disease.
