It is welcome move by Muslims all over India to condemn illogical and baseless remarks made by this pro sanghi journalist.   There should be strict rules in India that none should defame or talk baseless agaisnt any religion + God + Messenger.    such hate mongers should be jaled for not less than 5 years and should be levied penalty of not less than Rs. 10 lacs.    With this strict rule we cannot stop such hate mongers from vomitting hate.    Organisaton behind such hate mongers should also be banned.
