Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind President Maulana Mahmood Madani has expressed deep concern over the recent statement of Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma. He said that such statements not only openly promote violence and hatred, but they are also a direct attack on the democratic and constitutional structure of India.
Maulana Madani said that intimidating a particular community, threatening to take away its voting rights and encouraging economic exploitation against it reflects open fascism and a mentality of collective punishment. He made it clear that such thinking is completely unacceptable in any civilized, democratic and constitutional system.
FIR should be registered immediately on inflammatory statements: Madani
He stressed that ignoring these statements as mere political rhetoric or election strategy would be tantamount to compromising the basic principles of democracy. Maulana Madani demanded that an FIR should be registered immediately on such inflammatory and divisive statements and a clear message should be given that neither any person in India is above the law nor any position gives the right to spread hatred.
This is misuse of state power: Maulana Madani
Maulana Madani said that if the Chief Minister of any state himself admits that he is using the administrative and government machinery as a weapon against any community. Inciting people to file false complaints, raising baseless objections and systematic harassment is a gross abuse of state power. He said that such statements are an attempt to openly legitimize violence against a community, raising serious questions on the fairness and credibility of the entire democratic structure.
National issue related to democratic health: Madani
He clarified that Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind does not consider this matter as a matter limited to any one state, but considers it a very serious national issue related to the democratic health of the country. If today freedom is given to target a community in one state, then tomorrow the same attitude can be adopted against any other community.
Maulana Madani appealed to all the constitutional institutions, especially the Election Commission, Judiciary and civil society, to discharge their constitutional responsibilities instead of remaining silent spectators, so that those doing politics of hatred, division and fear can be stopped in time and democracy can be protected.
