Always when government wants to cover up some scam or issue which will affect its credibility they will divert the attention of the public to some other non-issue. They have the media in their hands and can use it to their advantage.
There was a issue of Rs 45,000 crore which came up just when Zakir Naik issue was highlighted. Most of the people did not read about this big scam.
RSS terrified by the huge number of non-muslims reverting to Islam due to Zakir Naik's propogation. Ravi Shanker also trying to take vengence on Naik when he was clean bowled at a public debate by honourable Naik. Now they are using every means to finish him since their govt is at the helm. Nevertheless truth always prevails regardless of the intensity of falsification.
Aranab earlier called JNU students and Kanayya anti nationals and some of them terrorists. The majority of Indians (excluding RSS) spit on his face . Now he is barking against Dr. Naik. He thinks that he is a reputed journalist. He is a barking street dog.
Thanks to Mr.Go swami for Advertising Honerable Dr.Zakir Naik
We love you ....GO Swami.
The biggest terrorist is \Arnab Gosami\""
The good here is more people came to know about zakir Naik and will hear his speeches and more to accept Islam....like it happened in US and Europe after 9/11...... inshallh
Was waiting for Deoband's reaction, I Have heard Dr. Zakir Naik Speeches and the way Zakir Naik preaches Islam is questionable BUT, never has he promoted Terriosm or Suicide Bombing, false allegation from the Media, This is Indeed DEEP \CONSPIRACY\". Salafism & Wahabism way of Islamic teaching should be stopped or else this will have greater Impact on the Islamic World.
Thank you Darul-ul-Uloom for your Support."
