PFI demands reconstruction of Babri Masjid

December 6, 2011

Mangalore, December 6: Popular Front of India organised public programmes in the national capital and various parts of the country on the 19th anniversary of Babri Masjid demolition demanding its reconstruction of the mosque on the same site.

In New Delhi, the dharna held at Jantar Mantar was attended by hundreds of people. PFI chairman E M Abdul Rahiman inaugurated the programme. Adv Bahar U Barqi of Supreme Court, Dr Anwarul Islam of Majlis-e-Mushawarah, SDPI Delhi State Convener Abdul Rasheed Agwan and the programme convener Moulana Kaleemullah Siddiqui, and other leaders belonging to different organisations address the gathering.

In a memorandum addressed to the President and Prime Minister of India, PFI, has pointed out that the immediate assurance given by the then prime minister P V Narasimha Rao to rebuild the mosque failed to materialize till now.

Only rebuilding the masjid on the same site would serve justice and restore the faith of millions of upright citizens of India, Muslims and non-Muslims, it said.

The memorandum also pointed out that all legal procedures related to the issue are still pending settlement. The case filed in 1961 related to ownership of the masjid and its premises is now before the Supreme Court of India after the controversial Allahabad High Court verdict to partition the land into three parts. The criminal case filed in 1992 against those who have demolished the Masjid is indefinitely delayed. The Central Government has not initiated any action on the recommendations of Justice Liberhan's Commission which enquired the events that led to the destruction of the masjid.

In a press release the organization has urged the government of India to expedite the proceedings of Supreme Court of India for a final verdict in the appeal cases of title suit pending against the controversial High Court verdict; to announce actions taken against those whom Justice Liberhan's Commission has found guilty in destructing Babri Masjid, and to initiate steps for a legislation by the Indian Parliament for rebuilding Babri Masjid on the same site where it stood earlier, since the ultimate solution to the problem lies in fulfilling the nation's commitment to justice.

Bengaluru, Jun 23: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Tuesday demanded that Bengaluru should be put under lockdown for 20 days to contain the spread of coronavirus, the cases of which have risen sharply recently.

 “Stop playing with people's lives. There’s no use in sealing off only some areas. If the people of Bengaluru must live, then a lockdown of at least 20 days is needed. Otherwise, Bengaluru will become another Brazil,” Kumaraswamy said in a tweet. “People’s health is more important, not economy.”

The JD(S) leader was reacting to the BJP government's decision to impose an area-wide lockdown in Chickpet, KR Market, Kalasipalyam and Chamarajpet while streets will be sealed off in VV Puram, Siddapura, Yelahanka, Vidyaranyapura and Chickpet.

Bengaluru has witnessed a huge spike in its Covid-19 tally; the city currently has at least 919 active cases. This has sparked off fears that the contagion might have reached the community.

Kumaraswamy has also demanded welfare measures for the poor. “The poor and the labourers should be given ration immediately. The state’s 50 lakh working class should get ₹5,000 each. The aid already announced by the government hasn’t reached drivers, weavers, Madiwalas and other communities,” he said, adding that mere announcements of a package won’t be enough and “it has to be implemented.”
