Rejecting the claims that members of Tablighi Jamaat had spat on doctors after they were being evacuated from Nizamuddin Markaz, A woman claiming to be a medical officer, who was a part of the team responsible for evacuating the mosque in Nizamuddin Markaz has said that Tableeghis never misbehaved while evacuating the Markaz.  

Journalist Rifat Jawaid tweeted, “What Tablighi Jamaat did was utterly irresponsible. I’ve known #TablighiJamaat from closer quarter. They can be rigid and orthodox on certain issues but I am not prepared to believe that they could misbehave with women. This is a dangerous propaganda to malign them and Muslims.”

Reacting to Rifat’s tweet, one Urvi Sharma Raina wrote, “I was part of the evacuation at nizamuddin and they never misbehaved. Not once.”

Raina’s bio on Twitter describes her as a medical officer.

 In her subsequent tweet, she wrote, “I think it was imperative I talked about my experience from the frontline. I am in no way belittling the incidents of misbehavior wherever they may have been reported. But they must be dealt as separate incidents and not generalized to the entire community,” the lady doctor tweeted. 

Her tweet has gone viral within hours with more than 7,000 likes and nearly 4,000 retweets.

Raina has become a hero with an overwhelming majority of Twitter users applauding her courage. Others felt that this was a slap to those hatemongers in the Indian media, who made desperate attempts to vilify Muslims in the guise of journalism.

Madurai (PTI): Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin on Saturday claimed that AIADMK chief Edappadi K Palaniswami would meet the same fate as Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, at the hands of the BJP.

Only till 2026 TN Assembly polls, Palaniswami will be AIADMK chief, and later the BJP would "ease him out of office," Stalin alleged and slammed Palaniswami as an epitome of "betrayal".

"The BJP will dislodge Palaniswami from the top AIADMK post of general secretary, and bring a leader of its choice to that position," he said after welcoming scores of O Panneerselvam's supporters into the DMK in a rally organised in Madurai.

The expelled AIADMK leader had joined the DMK along with his former MP son O Ravindranath, in the presence of Stalin on February 27 in Chennai.
