Mangalore, Dec 4: The Social Democratic Party of India staged a protest against the demolition of the Babri Masjid, in front of the DC’s office on Dec 4, Friday. The purpose of the protest was also to observe the anniversary of the demolition of the Babri Masjid on Dec 6.
Addressing the agitators,Committee Member Maulana Usman Baig accused the Sangh Parivar and the BJP of doing much injustice to Muslims and also excluding them from the legislative, judicial, and executive aspects of governance when the party was in power. He also made a serious allegation when he said that members of the Sangh Parivar were present in other political parties too.
He also stated that people with fascist ideologies have organized themselves into many groups to weaken the Muslim community. "Leaders like Atal Bihari Vajpayee, L K Advani, Sushma Swaraj and others claim that the demolition of the Babri Masjid was an angry retaliation on the part of Hindus; but Muslims are sure that it was preplanned. The court had promised that the mosque would be preserved, but it was demolished when the Congress was in power," he said.
Pattabhirama Somayaji, Lecturer in University College, Mangalore, said that the members of the Sangh Parivar by raising the “Jai Sri Ram” slogan in the parliament, have gone against the constitution of India. He also said that the Sangh Parivar was inflicting more torture on the minorities at present than in the past.
G Rajashekar of Udupi, who also spoke said several Muslims still go to temples in Ayodhya to offer their prayers, even while the fact is that the masjid was demolished by Hindu groups. Even several Hindus are against such fascist groups, he said.
