Mangaluru, Jan 28: Even though Muslim community have openly condemned the murder of Deepak Rao, a Hindu youth, Vishwa Hindu Parishad has openly endorsed the killing of Ahmed Basheer, an innocent Muslim man who was hacked to death on January 3 in Manglauru by communal goons.

Speaking at a function to release a book, Hadedavvana Shaapa, here on Sunday, Dakshina Kannada district president of VHP, Jagadish Shenva, called upon the Hindu society to support the accused persons involved in the murder of Ahmed Basheer.

Mr Shenva said that the VHP believed that an innocent Basheer was murdered in retaliation to the murder of another innocent Bharatiya Janata Party activist Deepak Rao on the same day.

He said that an innocent Sharath Madiwala was murdered (on July 4, 2017) a few days after the murder of Social Democratic Party of India activist Ashraf in Bantwal taluk. “Then why not Basheer be murdered in revenge for the murder of Deepak Rao,” he asked.

Mr Shenva said that there was a sense of anguish in a section of society following the murder of Deepak Rao. “We are not of the kind who will react like this. But there are a section of people who are prepared for it (to murder a person in revenge). As a society it’s our responsibility to protect such persons,” he said.

The hardline Hindutva leader also predicted that his statement will be widely reported and there would be cases filed against him. “But I will stand by this statement,” he said.

Meanwhile, a video clipping of Mr. Shenva’s speech was widely circulated on Facebook and WhatAspp groups. The police said that they are taking legal opinion on Mr. Shenva’s speech.

May 10: Azaan is an integral part of the faith, not the gadget, says veteran writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar, asking that the Islamic call to prayer on loudspeakers should be stopped as it causes "discomfort" to others.

In a tweet on Saturday, Akhtar wondered why the practice was 'halaal' (allowed) when it was, for nearly half a century in the country, considered 'haraam' or forbidden.

"In India for almost 50 years Azaan on the loud speak was Haraam. Then it became Halaal and so halaal that there is no end to it, but there should be an end to it. Azaan is fine but loud speaker does cause of discomfort for others. I hope that atleast this time they will do it themselves (sic)," Akhtar tweeted.

When a user asked his opinion on loudspeakers being used in temples, the 75-year-old writer said everyday use of speakers is a cause of concern.

"Whether it's a temple or a mosque, if you're using loudspeakers during a festival, it's fine. But it shouldn't be used everyday in either temples or mosques.

"For more than thousand years Azaan was given without the loud speaker. Azaan is the integral part of your faith, not this gadget," he replied.

Earlier in March, Akhtar had supported the demand to shut mosques amid the coronavirus outbreak in the country, saying even Kaaba and Medina have been closed due to the pandemic.

He had also appealed to the Muslim community to offer prayers from home in the holy month of Ramzan, which began on April 24.

"I request all the Muslim brothers that now that Ramzan is coming, please say your prayers but make sure that this doesn't cause problems to anyone else. The prayers that you do in the mosque, you can do that at home. According to you, the house, the ground, this all has been made by Him. Then you can do your prayers anywhere," he had said.
