Mangaluru, Dec 9: “Islam is the religion of Allah. Based on this, Shariat was also created by Allah. So, till the end of the universe, Shariat will remain. It is the duty of the Muslims to protect it. ‘Samasta’ is also committed to protect Shariat”, said Kerala Jamiyyathul Ulama president Alhaji Sayyid Jifri Muthukoya Thangal.
Inaugurating the ‘Shariat Protection Convention’ organized by the Samastha Shariat Protection Committee with a slogan of ‘Let us join hands for the protection of Constitutional rights. Drive back materialistic theory which destroys religion’, at the Shahid CM Abdulla Musliyar stage at the Nehru Stadium here on Sunday, he said that the Constitution has entitled equal rights to the people of each religion. According to that, citizens could practice their religious rituals. So, Muslims have been practicing the Shariat rituals. Islam has never encouraged Talaq. But in order to tarnish the image of Islam, some people have been creating confusion in the society. It was the responsibility of administration to protect minorities in any country. The governments have to understand this basic thing. At this critical time, Samastha was ready to take any challenges to protect Muslim community, he said.

New Delhi (PTI): The BJP on Wednesday claimed irregularities in voter registration in Rae Bareli, Wayanad, Diamond Harbour and Kannauj parliamentary seats and asked Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Abhishek Banerjee and Akhilesh Yadav to resign as Lok Sabha MPs, alleging they secured victory in elections with "vote chori".
Giving a slide-show presentation on the issue at the BJP headquarters here on an 'analysis' of electoral rolls in these constituencies represented by opposition leaders, former Union minister Anurag Thakur also flagged "irregularities" in the voter registration in Kolathur assembly seat in Tami Nadu and in Mainpuri Lok Sabha seat in Uttar Pradesh and asked Chief Minister and DMK supremo M K Stalin and SP leader Dimple Yadav to resign for "rigging" election.
He slammed the Congress, TMC, Samajwadi Party and DMK leaders for raising questions on the Election Commission and accused them of running a vicious propaganda against the special intensive revision (SIR) of the elector rolls, which is currently underway in Bihar and would be launched in other states, to protect their "vote bank of illegal Bangladeshi infiltration" and other "intruders"
"Seeing this 'shor' (hue and cry) being made by the opposition, it now seems that 'chor machaye shor'", he said, suggesting those who are in the wrong are now crying foul.
"Rae Bareli, Wayanad, Kannuaj, to Diamond Harbour -- everywhere one question is coming up -- why did they make fake voters. Will they resign for indulging in 'vote chori' and protecting intruders?" Thakur said.
Levelling allegations of "vote chori", Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi had on Thursday, through a presentation at a press conefrence, cited data from the 2024 Lok Sabha polls to claim that over 1 lakh votes were "stolen" in Mahadevapura assembly segment in Karnataka through five types of manipulation, including duplicate voters, fake and invalid addresses, single-address voters.
On Tuesday, opposition leaders took out a protest march from the Parliament House to the Election Commission's headquarters here on the issue but were stopped and briefly detained by the police.
The Congress on Wednesday stepped up its campaign against alleged 'vote chori' by releasing a new video depicting how "fake votes" were being cast, with party chief Mallikarjun Kharge asking people to raise their voice and save constitutional institutions from the "clutches of the BJP".
Gandhi also shared the minute-long video and said, "Aapke vote ki chori aapke adhikar ki chori, aapki pehchaan ki chori hai".
