BJP demands Imam's arrest for accusing PM Modi of deceiving people

January 8, 2017

Kolkata/New Delhi, Jan 8: Bharatiya Janata Party has demanded the arrest of the chief Imam of a Kolkata mosque for slamming Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his unfulfilled promises and continued sufferings of people in India.

hqdefaultAccusing PM Modi of deceiving the people, Syed Mohammad Nurur Rahman Barkati, the Shahi Imam of Kolkata's Tipu Sultan Masjid, said: "Everyday people are harassed and facing problem due to demonetisation."

"Modi is bluffing the society and the innocent people of the country through demonetisation and nobody wants him to continue as the Prime Minister," he said during a joint conference by the All India Majlis-e-Sura and All India Minority Forum here.

Slamming the Imam, BJP National Secretary Sidharth Nath Singh, who is in-charge of party's West Bengal affairs, said in Delhi, "We demand that Mamata Banerjee immediately order his arrest. Thefatwa' against our Prime Minister is highly condemnable. TMC MP Idris Ali was sitting next to him when he issued thefatwa'."

Warning of protests if the state government did not take any action against the imam, Singh said, "This is not an issue between BJP and TMC. This is an insult of the Prime Minister by a religious leader considered close to the Chief Minister."

Earlier Barkati alleged, "People who keep beard are mostly religious like maulanas, sadhus, sufis, sikh gurus. But Modi keeping beard is 'bhondami' (bluffing). I have no hesitation in saying that he (Modi) is bluffing the country. He (Modi) has lost all his credentials as the Prime Minister."

Terming Modi "communal" and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee as a figure of "communal harmony", he claimed that most of the people in the country now want Banerjee to be the Prime Minister of the country.

Last month Barkati had slammed BJP state president Dilip Ghosh for his comments against Banerjee.

Dear Sidharth, please first educate yourself by the meaning of Fatwa. You cannot say it as \Fatwa\" for everyone's statement. This Imam has expressed his own thinkings and this is not related to the religion and has no relation with Fatwa. I think you term it as Fatwa if any Imam sneezes. I think you dont wat any comments agaisnt our PM. You might be loving our PM very much but you cant force every one to do the same. Why are you not putting pressure on Karnataka Govt for arrest of goonda BJP MP anantga kumar who did murder attempt of doctors and destroyed property int he hospital. Are you praising him for this too? Why do you have double standard? Educate yourself dear."

Hubballi,  Jul 25: South Western Railway (SWR) inducted seven lady sub-inspectors (SI) in the Railway Protection Force (RPF), in a first, on Friday. Three more women SI undergoing training in Lucknow are expected to join SWR soon.

According to the Chief Public Relations Officer (CPRO) of SWR, the inducted sub-inspectors are part of 164 women SI cadets who passed out of the RPF training centre in Moula Ali, Hyderabad, after a rigorous training of nine months. They will take care of the security of railway passengers, Railway property, and Railway premises, after resuming their duties.

They will also be responsible for giving special care to the vulnerable sections of society, women, and children while discharging their duties, the CPRO said.

The CPRO also informed that the newly admitted female SIs will be posted to major stations on SWR for regular duties on completion of their two months of practical training over the Zone. Further 120 ladies are undergoing constables training for various training centres across India.

This move is considered a step forward into women empowerment in Railways.

Tumakuru, Jan 8: RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat stoked controversy on Wednesday by stating that 'Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) is full of traitors'.

He was addressing the media after taking part in a pro-CAA rally organised by National Citizens Forum near the office of the deputy commissioner of the district here.

Bhat said, “JNU is full of traitors. Congress and communist parties have been generating anti-nationals there. But there is no need to close the university down. Modi government will handle it.”

“Nationalism should be infused among the students there through love and trust. They should be made to realize what the truth is,” he said.

Unfortunate, still he has poor followers to believe him.

He is safe at home and sacrifiers are poor boys who blindly believe and obey him.

 

This guy is sick and irriversible.

God will reward him so that his followers believe his exploiting orders.
