‘MUSLIMS CAN NEVER ABDICATE MOSQUE’

- DC CORRESPOND­ENT

Hyderabad: AIMPLB on Sunday reiterated its stand that there cannot be any compromise on the Babri Masjid issue.

The board felt that it is an essential part of faith in Islam and Muslims can never abdicate the Masjid nor they can exchange land for Masjid or gift the Masjid land.

Speakers at a public meeting organised by AIMPLB at Darussalam ground in the city urged Muslims to stay united.

The speakers felt that people are interferin­g in Muslim personal laws.

“An attempt is being made to harass Muslims on some or the other pretext. It could be beef, triple talaaq, uniform civil code, Babri Masjid and sensitive issues. All of us should stay united and fight democratic­ally,” said Mr Obaidullah Khan Azmi, Rajya Sabha MP. Another member, Maulana Asghar Ali Imam Mahadi Salafi, said that people should be able to distinguis­h between good and bad.

About 50,000 people from across the country participat­ed in the meeting. The public was turning up in large numbers till the report was being filed.
