No ‘love jihad’ angle in Rajasthan killing; Sick people disturbing peace: BJP’s Naqvi

Union Minority Affairs Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi has sought to see the killing and burning of a Muslim labourer in Rajasthan earlier this week as a “criminal incident” and not as a case with a so called “love jihad” angle to it, as was being alleged.

The minority affairs minister also, without naming anyone, said that some "sick" people were allegedly trying to disturb the communal harmony in society. He said a crime should not be clubbed with religion. Naqvi, however, stressed people allegedly doing so will not succeed in their "nefarious designs".

“It is an unfortunate incident. We should not club crime with religion...and treat criminal incidents as criminal incidents only. The State government has already taken strict action against the guilty,” Mr. Naqvi said when asked about Mohammed Afrazul’s killing in Rajsamand.

“Some sick people are trying to disturb the communal harmony in society. But they will not succeed in their nefarious designs,” he added.

A 48-year-old Muslim labourer, from West Bengal, was hacked and burnt to death in Rajasthan's Rajsamand earlier this week, leading the police to arrest the killer. The accused, identified as Shambu Lal Raigar, is seen in the videos ranting against "love jihad", a term used by chauvinists.

Mangaluru, Jul 31: Muslims across coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada today observed Eid al Adha following the safety guidelines issued by the government amidst covid-19 pandemic. 

While coastal Karnataka is celebrating the festival of sacrifice today, it will be observed in other parts of Karnataka and country tomorrow. 

Congregational Eid prayers were held in many mosques while ensuring physical distancing norms. Only 50 devotees were allowed in mosques. Children below 10 years of age and elders above 60 years of age weren’t allowed. 

Eidgahs in the region wore a deserted look as the government has temporarily prohibited prayers in the open grounds. The Eidgah at Lighthouse Hill in Mangaluru, which usually witnessed huge crowd during Eid celebrations, was also closed this time. 

As expected, the celebration this time was a low key thanks to the restrictions placed in tune with the threat of coronavirus infection.

Prayers were held in Kudroli’s Nadupalli and Bundar’s Zeenat Bakhsh Central mosque. All those who entered mosque were wearing masks. 

In Udupi city, Eid prayers were held at Jamia Masjid and other mosques with limited number of devotees. In Bhatkal took some of the mosques hosted Eid prayers with all precautionary measures.
