Bengaluru, May 1: The Karnataka government on Friday issued a show cause notice to an IAS officer over his recent tweet about coronavirus-cured Tablighi Jamaat members donating plasma for treatment of other patients.
The officer, Mohammad Mohsin, was in the news last year after the Election Commission suspended him for trying to inspect Prime Minister Narendra Modi's helicopter during his visit to Odisha in April. He was deployed as a poll observer.
"More than 300 Tablighi Heroes are donating their plasma to serve the country in New Delhi only. What about? #Godi Media? They will not show the works of humanity done by these heroes," Mohsin said in a tweet on April 27.
A 1996 batch IAS officer from Karnataka cadre hailing from Bihar, Mohsin is currently serving as a secretary in the Backward Class Welfare Department.
The state government said the show cause notice has been issued to the officer in connection with his tweet.
"The adverse coverage this tweet has got in the media has been taken note of seriously by the government, given the serious nature of COVID-19 and the sensitivities involved," the notice, which was accessed by PTI, stated.
The government has sought a written explanation from the officer within five days for violating the All India Services (Conduct) Rules, 1968.
It warned of action against Mohsin as per the All India Services (Discipline and Appeal) Rules, 1969 if he fails to submit his reply before the deadline.
"The Karnataka government has made it clear that it would not hesitate to act even against powerful functionaries if their actions are damaging to the harmony in the state at a time when all are united in fighting COVID-19," a senior state bureaucrat said.
The Tablighi Jamaat, an Islamic missionary group, shot into the limelight early this year after thousands of its members who attended a congregation in south Delhi's Nizamuddin in March tested positive for coronavirus.
After attending the event, the group's members travelled to various parts of the country, with many of them carrying the virus.
The NIA had named Zakir Naik, IRF, and others in an FIR registered under anti-terror law Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act on Friday.

It only shows that PROPHET MUHAMMED pbuh, the final messenger to the whole of MANKIND Spoke the TRUTH...
He said : In the end time LIES will be accepted as truth and TRUTH will be accepted as LIES. People are IGNORANT of the CREATOR that's why the EVILs find easy to trap the people With LIES and DECEPTION. ... Most of the people who doesnt use their intellect are falling to the LIES of the arrogant leaders.. and believing it as TRUTH... infact if we research what ZN says is all TRUTH and FACT from not only from Muslim scripture but also other religious scriptures.
But its a temporary enjoyment... for the falsehood... if not repented to God ... They will surely see that ALLAH's plan was the best. Muslims should be patience on their arrogance and fight lawfully.
But they plan, and Allah too plans. And Allah is the best of planners.
Who is the creator of this Univers and
the creator of you & me.
When people are busy in exchanging their old currencies, the Govt. is banning Dr.Zakir Naik's NGO and slowly taking over his Schools.
BJP needs place to hide their black money. So they are byforce taking over zakir's house to hide their money.

shame on NIA who is acting on centre for their shameless ideology ...to curb a peace lover and a peace preacher ..... does it mean that every Muslim become TERRORIST instead of Peace lover like Dr.Zakir Naik ?
i think its time to become that soon . as INDIA will see bloodiest Civil War as RSS wishes to hold onto its 2025 Brahmin Rashtra agenda to come true (which is dream only) . but if ARMY is sasffronised only
Movement like Popular front, SPDI , komu souharda vedike .DYFI,SFI,CFI, Dalit Panthers, Naxal . pragathipara vedike will always there to defend the Nation from such foolish rulers ....
Jai Hind
Asaram Bapu and Zakir Naik both are same
Do you know how????
Their followers are telling that they are innocent and blaming government ...Ha ha ha
Dr. Zakir Naik is a student of Comparative religions. He preaches oneness of God, peace and harmony quoting verses from Quran, Bible and Vedas. Anti Islamic elements cannot equate him logically, and they cannot tolerate his popularity.
Targeting innocent Muslims or peaceful Muslim organizations is not at all a good step. Fascists with their biased policies will only harm the peace in the nation.
India being a plural society, Ruling parties or any other parties why dont you support the UNITY IN DIVERSITY towards the benefit of our beloved nation.
Good move by government...
I think this may be the one of reason for Demonetization of 500 and 1000 rupees, Saffron Government attacking A muslim daayi and his organization under the darkness of 500 and 1000 currency, Actually Muslim does not benefit much from Dr. Zakir as he is not a fiqh scholar, our non muslim brothers missed the opportunity to understand the truth through him, But nothing to worry, If Allah wish to guide one, No one can misguide him,
you can ban legend and great leader like DR.ZAKIR NAIK but you cannot stop or prevent spreading ISLAM all over the world. if you hold one DR.ZAKIR NAIK thousands of other DR. ZAKIR NAIK will come up with more powerful SPEECHES and awareness.
so stop doing unwanted activities and actions..
Dr Zakir should have come to India, since he is away from India authority has more chances of squeezing his organisations. if he is guilty court will punish him. it should not be the situation where he gave stick and ate beatings. Only Allah knows the truth and Allah will guide the best..
I DONT think he can do unwanted activities,
any way
Truth will prevail and evil will perish soon
Political Power is the Master key to open the doors of Justice. hope the Indian Muslim Community Stand together under one political Platform . then only can defeat the Fascist ideology. in india muslim's issue is not just the religious one, its full of Politics which Muslims never realized. let the community stand on their own. now the question is where are those champions of Secularism ..???
This is the lab test of communal anti India rss group. Now by false case they will start to ban other Islamic organization. They are planners are full training under Jews group.
Whole IndIan citizens aware of their intention devide and rule for the sake of so called upper case.
But God will by the supper of peace loving Indins it will not happen.
Now the young cm padnavi of rss more active with anti India policy.Hope hard woring Mumbaikar will stand with peacefull life.
Jai Hind!h3
