Mumbai, Aug 10: Troubles seem to be mounting for Islamic Research Foundation (IRF) chief Dr Zakir Naik with Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis hinting action against him after the Mumbai Police reportedly indicted him for “many unlawful activities”.

attemptsAccording to reports, the Mumbai Police has recommended that the state book Dr Naik under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) and ban IRF.

Though none of the allegation against the 50-year-old NRI preacher is proved yet, the 72-page report submitted by the police mentions “serious things” and dwells on source-less' media reports that accuse him of terror links.

The report discussed about the conversion by IRF and also mentioned about media reports that allege that through IRF and Peace TV, Naik gave a platform to 'terrorist minds' for propagating their ideology.

“Based on the report and the evidence we would take the strictest possible action against him. Prima facie, it seems and the report says that there are violations....the report has indicted Naik and his organisation,” said Fadnavis, who also holds the Home portfolio.

“This report is about (his) activities and conclusion,” he said, pointing out that the Centre and state would work together on the “future course of action”.

All false charges'

Meanwhile, the IRF has reiterated that the charges against Dr Zakir Naik are false and baseless and the Islamic preacher functions under the ambit of the Constitution.

Refusing to comment on the report submitted by the Mumbai Police, the IRF said that Dr Naik or the IRF has not received any notice from the MHA or any governmental agency as of now.

Haha Try hard RSS terrorists. Hand in Glove with Cow Swamy. Whatever you do, Cowswamy has to pay 500 crore to Dr. Naik.

India belongs to Muslims as much as Hindus. We need our own Main Stream Islamic Channel in India. This is our constitutional right. We Muslims must fight and come out on the street for following channels to be shown in India Makkha Channel, Madina Channel & Peace TV.

We Muslims has to work hard for Da'awa in India. Distribute Islamic CD's on comparative studies to non Muslims so that they can Judge between right and wrong.

We will wait and watch extent of RSS terrorism. Gulf countries should freeze RSS terrorists & Sympathizers accounts. They should put pressure on US govt to declare RSS organization as terrorist organization.

In Sha Allah End of Times Now Channel & Cowswamy. I have serious doubt on Maroof raza (Times Now Consultant) whether he is Muslim.

Mr. nothing but truth, for you he might seem like a Joker, for Allah dr. Zakir naik is his obedient slave, and Allah loves his slaves like anything which is beyond the capacity of human being's imagination. Fear Allah, fear the torment of Allah, if you don't know yet, refer to the holy Quran just once. We pray almighty Allah to protect dr. Zakir naik and in sha Allah you will see. Allah says in the holy Quran \Wakul Ja al haq wa zahkal batil, innal batila kaana zahooka\" The truth has arrived and the falsehood perished, Indeed falsehood is bound to perish."

Now let Mr. Joker Naik present his illogical logic in front of court. He would then understand Court is not a place to bluff as he does so often among innocent half-educated public. The heat is on..

Mangaluru, Jun 3: A banner that read "Veer Savarkar Flyover Pumpwell" surfaced on the sidewall of the Pumpwell flyover in Mangaluru on Tuesday night.

It is suspected that activists of Bajrang Dal put up the controversial banner. Though it was removed later, it sparked debates on social media and photos of it went viral.

The development comes amid the controversy over the naming of a flyover at Yelahanka in Bengaluru after Savarkar.

A Hindutva ideologue, Savarkar has tendered apology to British imperialists and pledged to support them following his arrest during India’s freedom movement.

Mangaluru, Jun 12: A pregnant woman who returned from Maharashtra and tested positive for coronavirus on Wednesday, gave birth to a child at the Wenlock COVID-19 hospital in Mangaluru. After she experienced labour pain, a team of expert doctors performed the delivery through the caesarean section on Thursday.

Both the woman and the new born are safe, hospital sources said. The woman, who belongs to Kinnigoli in Dakshina Kannada district, had arrived in the city on Monday. She was in an advanced stage of pregnancy and was taken to another hospital the next day after she complained of weakness.

As she came from Maharashtra, she was shifted to a separate ward at the Wenlock hospital and quarantined. Her throat swab samples tested positive on Wednesday. A COVID-19 test will be done on the baby after a few days, district health officer Ramachandra Bairy said.
