Muslim
Personal Law Board terms Supreme Court order 'unfortunate'

Hyderabad:
The All India Muslim Personal Law Board, the apex body of Indian
Muslims, Thursday termed as "unfortunate" the Supreme Court order
deferring the pronouncement of the verdict in the Babri
Masjid-Ramjanmabhoomi case.
The board demanded immediate pronouncement of the court saying "we
must face the truth". It suspects malafide intentions behind the
petition against delivering of the verdict.
"The Supreme Court should not have entertained the petition and it
should not have deferred the pronouncement of the verdict because
the issue has been in the court for so many years. It has served
the conspiracy of some people who want to delay the judgment,"
board assistant general secretary Abdul Rahim Qureshi told IANS.
He alleged that some elements who don't want the pronouncement of
the verdict by the Lucknow bench of the Allahabad High Court were
behind the petition. "These people don't want the idols from the
mosque to be removed," he said.
Pointing out that the title suit was pending in the court since
1950, the Muslim leader cautioned that not pronouncing the verdict
before the retirement of one of the three judges of the high court
would further complicate matters.
One of the judges is retiring Sep 30 and if the verdict is not
pronounced, the arguments have to be heard all over again, he
claimed.
Qureshi said there was not even one percent chance of an amicable
settlement. He was reacting to the observation made by one of the
two apex court judges that if there is one percent of chance of
conciliation it should be explored.
He said the board would make its stand clear before the Supreme
Court on Sep 28. "We want the verdict to be pronounced as early as
possible. Let the truth come out. We must face the truth," he
averred.
On the petitioner's apprehension that pronouncement of the verdict
may lead to violence, Qureshi said if the government has the will
it can control any situation.

Due to the threats of riot and
terror attacks, the festive season in India
nowadays results in sleepless nights for the security
personnel.
Against this backdrop, the show of communal harmony in Malegaon by Ajantha Mandal cannot be more timely. The Mandal
in a large hoarding portrays the real picture of the Muslim
dominated textile town in North Maharashtra. It shows,
Malegaon is where Azan in a Masjid and Shunkh
in a Mandir go simultaneously. To further make its point,
the Mandal plays communal harmony songs on a cassette-player
in its full sound.
