“All the anti-Muslim issues surfacing in the country are because of the BJP which is fueling these problems. A recent case in the series is the controversial statement of Nupur Sharma against the beloved Prophet Mohammad (SAW)”, said Sheikh Hamid Nasiri.

“Mere suspending from the party membership is not enough. Action must be taken against her as per the law. The BJP must prove their loyalty to the constitution of the country, otherwise, they are a betrayal of the constitution”, Sheikh Nasiri added.

“The controversial statement of Nupur Sharma and Naveen Jindal has disheartened the Muslims across the country while the Administration did not take action against them to date. I appeal to the Government to condemn and take strict action against them”, maintained Sheikh Nazir.
