RE: Rs. 51 CRORES FOR DANISH CARTOONIST'S HEAD
Febraury,18,2006
While extending my full support to the ongoing
spontaneous reactions in the form of peaceful
demonstrations against the most blasphemous display of
Prophet Mohammad's(PBUH) cartoons in Danish and other
European newspapers, I strongly condemn the
irresponsible utterances like the one made by the
UP(India) Minister of State for Haj and Minorities
Welfare, Haji Yaqoob Qureishi whereby he offered the
reward of Rs.51 Crores for the head of the Danish
cartoonist.
Such unsavoury developments indicate that those
who otherwise are nobody in the Muslim community are
seeking to become somebody through their political
brinkmanship, so as to effectively play with the
outrageous sentiments of the common Muslim masses.
Needless to say that it is the same Haji Yaqoob
Qureish, who did not have in his conscience the basic
funadamentals of Islam, while sitting at the feet of
the former UP Chief Minister, Mayawati, and feeling
pride in saying 'JAI BHEEM'. Astonishingly the same
person has now become such a great champion of Islam
and Prophet (PBUH) that he is offering whopping amount
of fifty one crores for the head of Danish cartoonist.
I appeal to the UP Chief Minister, Mr. Mulayam
Singh Yadav to immediately remove Mr. Qureish from the
Cabinet and lodge criminal proceedings against him (
Mr.Qureishi) for inciting violence. Now, as the
controversy is having all the potential to be
exploited by disgruntled elements of the community for
their own parochial interest, it is the high time, the
saner intelligentia and Ulema must come forward to
checkmate these ugly distractions.
I appeal to Mr. Qureish to kindly hand over this
amount to me, if he really has plundered his Ministry
to that extent, so that I may fulfil my ardent wish to
establish a high level University for the educational
upliftment of the community in UP.
