Guwahati:
Congress MLA Kamalaksha De Purkayastha has filed a police case against Assam Lok Sabha MP and All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) chief Maulana Badruddin Ajmal for hurting the sentiments of Hindus after his controversial beef remarks.
Badruddin Ajmal, who is also the president of the Assam State Jamiat Ulama (ASJU) – an organization of Islamic scholars of Deobandi ideology in India – claimed that Mr Purkayastha had eaten beef in secret.
A case was registered at Karimganj Sadar police station under IPC sections 153 (abetment to public mischief), and 295 (causing or defiling a place of worship with intent to insult the religion of any class).
In the FIR, the Congress MLA mentioned that Badruddin Ajmal was trying to incite communal riots among communities by using controversial remarks.
“Cow is worshiped in Hinduism. In Hinduism, eating beef is considered a sin. Badruddin Ajmal has hurt the sentiments of the entire Hindu community by saying this. Such remarks by MP Ajmal provoke and destroy communal harmony. Such persuasive statements by the leader of a political party can lead to communal riots,” the FIR read.
Earlier, Badruddin Ajmal reiterated his appeal to the Muslims of Assam not to sacrifice cows during Eid-ul-Adha this week out of respect for the sentiments of Hindus.
“Some people of RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) want to end India by trying to create Hindu Raj. Hindu Raj will never happen even in their dreams. They cannot break the unity between Muslims and Hindus in this country. Not you Will die if you don’t eat cow for a day on Eid. Rather, we celebrate it with Hindu brothers. Our ancestors were all Hindus. They came to Islam because it has special qualities. That is, respecting the sentiments of other religions,” Mr. Ajmal said.
He said, “However, India is a country of people from diverse communities, ethnic groups and religions. Most of the residents of India follow Sanatan Dharma, which treats the cow as a sacred animal.”
