BJP and Janata Dal-United (JDU) leaders on Sunday (November 30) criticized Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind chief Maulana Mahmood Madani’s statement on ‘Jihad’. BJP spokesperson Guru Prakash has reminded Mahmood Madani of the law and constitution of the country. BJP national spokesperson Guru Prakash said while talking to the media, “There is democracy and judiciary in the country. He (Mahmood Madani) should be told that he is above the constitution and law.”
He clearly replied that the country has a constitution prepared by Baba Saheb Ambedkar, there is a preamble and thinking. Therefore, do not even imagine taking the law into your own hands. Don’t think about it at all.
Madani should not make irresponsible statements – Ghulam Ghaus
JDU MLC Ghulam Gaus termed Maulana Mahmood Madani’s statement as ‘absurd’. Ghulam Ghaus said, “He (Mahmood Madani) should not make irresponsible statements.” ‘Unity in diversity’ is the specialty of our country.
What did Ghulam Ghaus say on Madani’s ‘homecoming’ statement?
He also rejected the statement of Mahmood Madani, in which Maulana said that a section is being given exemption in the name of ‘homecoming’. Ghulam Ghaus said, “If a person wants to follow any religion willingly then who can stop him? Jihad means gaining control over one’s wrong desires or desires in one’s mind. But they should not make irresponsible statements.”
‘There is no opposition left’
During this, JDU MLC also reacted to Tejashwi Yadav being elected Leader of Opposition. He said, “The opposition has no existence left. The appointment has happened because of the system of democracy. The job of the opposition is not only to criticize the government, but also to advise the government and tell about its mistakes.” Attacking Ghulam Ghaus, he said that it is not his job to merely protest in the name of the opposition, because in a democratic system the opposition is also a part of the government.
