Summary
Jehadi organizations of Pakistan have sped up their training programmes to Rohingya
Muslims of Myanmar to cause bloodbath in India and Bangladesh. This sensational revelation
was made by the Rohingya Muslim terrorist arrested in Bardhaman bomb blast case by the
National Investigating Agency in Hyderabad. He accepted that he was sending Rohingya
Muslims living all across India to Myanmar for terror training at secret locations. Now,
Rohingya Muslims have become terror threat to India along with Bangladeshi Muslims. There
are around 60 lakh Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar but the Myanmar government in clear
terms refused to give them its citizenship. The government is of the view that Rohingya
Muslims are Bangladeshi and are living in Myanman as infiltrators. On the other hand
Bangladesh is also not ready to accept them as its citizen. Pakistani intelligence agencies are
providing terror trainings to Rohingya Muslims in view of clashes between Budhdhists and
Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar. Lakhs of Rohingya Muslims have entered into India and are
now illegally living in different parts of the country. Interesting thing is that Indian Muslims
are not only giving them shelter but managing them livelihood as well. India security agencies
have kept their eyes shut on this emerging threat.
Generally the so called secular forces complain that the BJP does not give tickets to Muslim
candidates to contest elections but the party fielded 32 Muslims in Jammu and Kashmir
elections. Out of these, 25 Muslims have been fielded in the Valley while 6 in Jammu region
while one in Ladakh. Earlier in 2008, the BJP fielded 24 Muslim candidates for Assembly
elections and 17 Muslim candidates were fielded in 2002.
Banned terrorist organization of Uttar Pradesh, Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), is
expanding its base. A detailed report has been published in the weekly Urdu newspaper
Chauthi Dunia in November 3 issue. This organization was formed in Aligarh in 1970 and was
student wing of the Jamate Islami. But Jamate Islami distanced itself from this outfit. The
government of India banned it in 2001 but workers of this organization were found involved
in anti-National activities with different names.
Historical mosques and graveyards are being demolished in Mecca. Historical monuments in
the demolition lists also included grave of Hajarat Mohammad Saheb. It is said that Royal
Palace to replace the demolished tomb. Interesting thing is that Muslims across the country
caused uproar over the demolition of Babri mosque but thousands of historical mosques,
mausoleum and tomb have been demolished and no one could dare to speak against Saudi
Arabia.

Rohingya Muslim terrorists' infiltration bid a
security threat
National Investigating Agency arrested a Rohingya Muslim Khalid Mohammad from
Hyderabad in Bardhaman blast case. Khalid Mohammad accepted in the police interrogation
that Pakistani intelligence agency ISI was giving training to Rohingya Muslims at secret
destinations. He also revealed that Rohingya Muslims living in different parts of India have
been sent to Myanmar for training.
Inquilab on November 16 revealed that in the Muslim-majority areas of Myanmar around
12000 Muslims started off a journey to Malaysia on boats but they did not reach Malaysia
rather lost in the sea. Intelligence sources are speculating that these Rohingya Muslims might
infiltrate into India or Bangladesh illegally.
Intelligence agencies claimed that sometimes ago Thailand police captured 500 Rohingya
Muslims while trying to enter Thailand illegally. Similarly thousands of Muslims riding on a
boat fled from Myanmar in 1998 and entered India and Bangladesh. Later the Bangladesh
government deported them. The Bangladesh government said that they were not Bangladeshi
citizen therefore infiltrators cannot be given shelter. After that they entered Indian Territory
and are living in every corner of the country.
This is to recall that Rohingya Muslims are problem for several South Asian countries.
Myanmar claimed that these Muslims are not its citizen and they sneaked into the country
from Bangladesh. There were bloody clashes between Rohingya Muslims and Budhdhists in
Myanmar from the past four years in which thousands have been killed. The Bangladesh
government has been saying that Rohangia Muslims are not its citizen therefore they cannot
be allowed to intrude into the country. According to the Home ministry sources, thousands of
Rohingya Muslims are illegally living in India. According to the intelligence sources, they are
living in Jammu and Kashmir, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Telengana, Uttar Pradesh,
Madhya Pradesh and West Bengal. Intelligence sources also informed that there was no
credible data available about these Muslims living illegally. Around two years ago hundreds
of Rohingya Muslims reached Delhi and made shanties in the Vasant Kunj area occupying
historical monuments. The government drove them out with very difficultly. They are still

illegally living in the Okhla area of Delhi. Muslim organizations are making them available
food and other things.
According to intelligence agencies, some of these Rohingya Muslims are linked to Pakistan
and Pakistani intelligence agency ISI is using them to cause unrest in India by pushing
counterfeit currency in the market. Recently a Rohingya Muslim was arrested by the
intelligence sleuths in Bardhaman blasts case, who is alleged to be associated with terrorist
organization Harkat ul Jihad Islami. Security agencies claimed that he was given terror
training by Pakistani and Chinese officials in the jungles of Myanmar. This has also been
revealed that Pakistani agents are recruiting Muslim youths from Andhra Pradesh, Assam
and Jammu and Kashmir for terror training. Security agencies are quizzing him. It is said that
this person was doing recruitment work with the help of local Islamic madarsas.
According to Hindustan Times (November 23), the Rohingya Muslims arrested by the
National Intelligence Agency in connection with Bardhaman blast case had links with several
terrorist organizations. This Rohingya Muslims are originally from Myanmar and entered
India in November 2013. He got his Aadhar Card and Voter ID card made. According to the
government sources, this person has been providing terror training to Rohingya Muslims in
Myanmar. He is associated with Islamic terrorist organization Laskar e Toiba and this terrorist
organization had sent him to India so that Muslim youths could be recruited for the terrorist
activities. A laptop was recovered from him in which guidance for the use of arms and
ammunitions and information of making bomb was provided. He accepted in before the
police during interrogation that he had sent 40 youths to Bangladesh for terror training and
had also helped them to enter India. He also revealed that terrorist organizations authorized a
Bangladeshi youth Abdul Rahman for the recruitment after that his connection was
established with Laskar e Toiba. He used to visit Bangladesh and Myanmar and also used to
send youths to get terrorist training there. He accepted that he had facilitated terror training
for some people living illegally in Lucknow and Jammu and Kashmir.

'Ahmad Bukhari is a self-styled Shahi Imam'
Despite opposition from the Delhi Waqf Board, Shahi Imam Ahmed Bukhari of Jama Masjid
finally went ahead with Dastarbandi of his younger son Shaban Bukhari. Delhi Waqf Board
demanded from the Delhi High Court to stop Dastarbandi ceremony by Ahmed Bukhari
declaring Shaban his successor. The high court turned it down saying that it was personal

He got](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030507/5ab5976f7f8b9a156d8d070d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
ceremony of Imam. High court also made it clear that the right to appointment of Imam of
Jama Masjid rests with Waqf Board therefore Ahmed Bukhari did not have any right to
appoint his son as nayab Imam. As far as Dastarbandi is concerned, it does not have any
legal sanctity. The next hearing has been fixed for January 15. High court asked clarification
from Ahmed Bukhari by January 8 about appointing his son as deputy Imam of Jama
Masjid.
It is pertinent to mention that media did not give much attention as Ahmed Bukhari was
expecting. All the important political leaders kept distance from this ceremony. Supporters of
Imam were publishing colourful advertisements from the past two weeks in Urdu
newspapers.
Azizulhind on November 23 published a news report as the main story in which it was said
that the ceremony was presided over by Darul Uloom Waqf chief Maulana Mohammad
Saleem Qasmi. This is to recall that this institution was set up 30 years ago parallel to Darul
Uloom, Deoband. Ahmed Bukhari criticized Waqf Board by saying that it was instituted 70-
year-ago while his ancestors have been Imam of the mosque for the past 400 years. He said that
son of every Imam has been taking up the responsibility of Shahi Imam. He claimed that
Shaban Bukhari would be the 14th Shahi Imam.
This is to recall that Ahmed Bukhari had two wives and setting aside the tradition, he
appointed his younger son as Nayab Imam instead of his elder son. Several Muslim leaders
participated in this ceremony. Ahmed Bukhari did not invite PM Narendra Modi while Prime
minister of Pakistan Nawaj Sharief was invited. Imam also invited Congress president Sonia
Gandhi, Union Home minister Rajnath Singh and West Bengal chief minister Mamata
Banerjee and Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav to attend the ceremony however
no one showed up.
Roznama Rashtriya Sahara on November 23 published this report in two columns and picture
was also published with the report.
Inquilab on November 23 published this report on the front page in three columns. Interesting
thing is that not a single newspaper wrote any editorial on this issue.
This is to recall that when Late Syed Abdulla Bukhari appointed his son as his successor then
also Waqf Board opposed it and refused to give recognition to Ahmed Bukhari as Imam.
Ahmed Bukhari was given recognition of Imam under political pressure.
According to Hindustan Express (November 21), All India Majlis e Mushawarat chief Syed
Shahabuddin also opposed appointment of Shaban Bukhari. He said that as per Islamic law
the post of Imam was not hereditary so Imam did not have any right to appoint his successor.

Different Muslim leaders vehemently criticized Ahmed Bukhari's decision of not inviting the
PM for the ceremony and on the other hand sending invitation to the Pakistani PM. They said
that the decision of Imam would give people a chance to question patriotism of Muslims. This
was the main subject for the Urdu newspapers for several days. Muslim Ulama are of the view
that Islam does not have the post of Imam as hereditary. Anyone can lead the prayer for
Muslims. The government is of the opinion that Jama Masjid is a waqf property not a fief of
Ahmed Bukhari Imam therefore only Waqf Board can appoint successor of the present Imam
Ahmed Bukhari. Woman Muslim ulama Shiba Fahmi emphasized in a write up that imam of
every mosque were equal and anyone using title of Shahi Imam was wrong. As per records
available, Imam of Jama masjid gets his salary from the Waqf Board. Ahmed Bukhari is self-
styled Shahi Imam.

BJP fields Muslim candidates in J&K elections
According to Inquilab (November 18), the BJP fielded as many as 32 Muslim candidates in the
Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections. There are 25 candidates for Kashmir Valley while 6
for Jammu and 1 for Laddakh. The BJP fielded 4 Kashmiri pandits in the Valley and one Sikh
candidate. Three Budhdhists have been made the BJP candidate in Ladhakh. Jammu and
Kashmir in charge and party MP Avinash Rai Khanna said that the BJP was getting popular by
the day in the state and Muslims were participating enthusiastically. This is to recall that in
2008 Assembly elections, the BJP fielded 60 candidates including 24 Muslims, 7 Kashmiri
pandits and had won 11 seats. In 2002 elections, it fielded total 58 candidates out of that 17
were Muslims but only one candidate was successful.
IV
Mulayam in the line of fire of Muslim leaders
Akhbar Mashriq on November 18 published a report on front page attributing Mulayam
Singh in which it was reported that due to veil system in Islam, Muslim women could not
become part of development. He emphasized that this system must be abolished. This veil

![Page 9: Vol. 3, Issue 22 December 1-15, 2014 - India Policy …. 3, Issue 22 December 1-15, 2014. For Private Circulation Vol ... Telengana, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and West ...

system is archaic and said that Dr Ram Manohar Lohia called this the biggest hurdle for the
development of women. Mulayam said that it was necessary for Muslim women to shun
this practice. This statement of Mulayam triggered Urdu newspaper to start a campaign
against him. Every newspaper alleged that he was interfering into religious matters of
Muslims and he did not have right to oppose veil. He must apologize to Muslims of the
country.
According to Inquilab (November 19), a group of Muslims in Hardoi district criticized
Mulayam by organizing a meeting that statement regarding discontinuing veil system was
open defiance of Sharia law which Muslims would not tolerate. Mulayam must apologize to
Muslims of the country for interfering into Sharia law. Abdul Wahid of Bahujan Samaj Party
said that Mulayam was a so-called messiah of Muslims but no one could become well
wisher of Muslims just by wearing cap. On one hand Mulayam Singh claims to be the
sympathizers of Muslims on the other hand he goes into alliance with leaders like Kalyan
Singh and rubs salt on wounds of Muslims. Veil is a part of Islam and Muslims would never
give it up.
Chief of Madhavganj madarsa Maulana Abdul Jabbar Qasmi warned Mulayam Singh of not
interfering into Sharia Laws which would not be tolerated by Muslims. He said that veil
helped to keep a check on shamelessness. Another Muslim leader Mufti Qasmi said that veil
was the rule made by Nabi therefore if Mulayam was opposing it that means he was
disrespecting Hajrat Mohammad Saheb. District president of Jamiat Ulama Jubair Ahmed
Qasmi said that no Muslim would tolerate such statement of Mulayam.
Muslims in Pilibhit organized a meeting criticizing the statement of Mulayam Singh. They
demanded apology from Mulayam Singh.
According to a news report from Lucknow, Muslim women organization president Begum
Shahnaz said that instruction for the use of veil for women was given by Hajrat Mohammad
Saheb so Mulayam must not interfere into it. If Mulayam does not withdraw his statement and
does not apologize to Muslims, she is going to sit on hunger strike outside his house. National
Ulama Council chief Maulana Aamir Rashidi termed Mulayam Singh's statement an attack on
Indian tradition and said that Mulayam Singh did not have any right to target culture of
Muslims deliberately. President of Momin Sabha Mohammad Akram Ansari said that the
Samajwadi Party came to power with the support of Muslims and after coming to power
mental equilibrium of Mulayam Singh derailed and he was giving anti-Muslim statements.
We don't need leaders like Mulayam Singh.

Girls banned for using social media
According to Sahafat (November 20), Shahpur Sabkhap Panchayat of Mujaffarnagar district
banned use of Facebook, internet, WhatsApp, jeans and mobile for girls. This decision was
taken by 36 castes panchayat. This khap panchayat also decided that people marrying in same
gotra must be executed. Bharatiya Kisan Union leader Chandrapal Fauji said that in the
matters of love try to make your girl understand if she was not ready to understand throw her
into Ganga River. President of Bharatiya Kisan Union Raju Ahlawat said, “We are neither
afraid of media nor courts. We have to anyhow keep our tradition alive. A girl from the village
is like sister and if anyone enters into such matrimony, they are going to meet the end that a
mad dog meets.” Chief of Baliyan khap Choudhary Naresh Tikait said, “We have been
opposing same gotra marriages. We are not going to break our tradition at any cost. What is
the need of mobile and internet for girls? Maharana Pratap Sangharsh Samiti chief Thakur
Narendra Pandher said that WhatsApp and Facebook must be banned for girls.

SIMI network spreads across India
Chauthi Dunia on November 3 claimed that Student Islamic Movement of India network was
spreading very fast from Bijnore in Uttar Pradesh to Bardhman in West Bengal. There is an
increasing network of Islamic Terrorists. Security agencies are of the opinion that SIMI is
getting support from the ISIS and internal security is deteriorating by the day therefore it is
necessary to implement security measures like the US and Israel. Al Qaida with the help of
Jamate Islami is expanding its base in India. Jamat ud Dawa chief Hafiz Sayeed is trying to give
Jamate Islami a new look. SIMI and similar organistions have strengthened their bases in the
state. There are lieutenants of Indian Mujahiddin present in Meerut, Aligarh, Saharanpur,
Mujaffarnagar, Bijnore, Kanpur, Azamgarh and Gorakhpur. In October 2013, intelligence
sources warned that terrorists fled from Madhya Pradesh took shelter in Uttar Pradesh but the
state government did not give any heed to it. Dreaded terrorist Majeed Sheikh was living in
Aminabad area of Lucknow where his in-laws used to stay. Arrangement has been made for
him to stay in Bijnor and he was staying there. Police were caught napping when his friend
was injured while making bomb but by the time police woke up from slumber terrorists fled.

The police got this information that terrorists were living in a locality of Bijnore and when the
police raided it recovered materials for bomb making from a shop but terrorists escaped.
National Investigation Agency arrested one Abdul Sattar who had been training terrorists and
his network is spread up to Nepal. SIMI was banned by the government in September 2001.
Samajwadi Party supports SIMI in Uttar Pradesh. When Mulayam Singh was the CM, he had
demanded lifting ban from SIMI from the Central government. The State government has
withdrawn all the cases against its chief Shahid Badra Falahi. SIMI was constituted on April
25, 1977 in Aligarh. Its founder was Mohammad Ahmedullah Siddqui and SIMI had its
relation with terrorist organization in Bangladesh. It has recently established relations with
terrorist organization of Bangladesh Harkat Jihadul Islami. SIMI caused bomb blasts in Uttar
Pradesh in 2005 and 2006 at several places and now it had spread its tentacles down south.
There was over a dozen of Islamic organization active in Kerala and Tamil Nadu. SIMI is
trying to spread its grip in Muslim dominated areas in Maharashtra. Activities of Tabligi
Jamat increased in border areas of Gujarat and Rajasthan. These organizations are linked to
many terrorist organizations.

Several historical mosques to be demolished in
Madina
According to Inquilab (November), the Saudi Arabia government plans to demolish several
historical mosques in its expansion plan of Masjid al Nabi and such historical buildings have
already been identified. The management of these mosques has been informed. Some of the
mosques to be demolished belong to the time of Hajrat Mohamad Saheb. One such mosque is
to be demolished where he himself used to offer namaj. These mosques are part of the Islamic
tradition. An Arabic historian Abdullah al Kabir said that before these mosques were to be
demolished permission must be sought from archeological department because these were
such mosques where Prophet Mohammad Saheb and Caliphs used to offer namaj.
This is to recall that Saudi Arabia is expanding the oldest mosque of Islamic history Masjid al
Nabi. At present 8 lakh people can offer namaj from this mosque but after its expansion over 30
lakh people would be able to offer prayer there.
Sahafat on November 20, made it the main news report on the front page and claimed that the
Saudi Arabia government was planning to demolish Tomb of Hajrat Mohammad Saheb. The
newspaper claimed that 95 per cent remains of ancient structures related to Islam have been
wiped out in Mecca and Madina. The newspaper also claimed that expansion plan of Masjid al
Nabi was prepared by a Christian architect which was an attempt to make Mecca a Western
city rather than an Islamic town. The Saudi Arabian government is a Wahabi government
which is hell bent upon demolishing all Islamic monuments. The newspaper also claimed that
the Saudi Arabia government was deliberately trying to erase historical buildings, which was
related to hajrat Mohammad Saheb and Caliph.
Urdu Times on November 14 published a news report in which it was alleged that a palace
was being built replacing tomb of Hajrat Mohammad Saheb. Director of Islamic Research
Orgaanisation of Britain Arif Alvi told the newspaper that the mosque built at the place where
Mohammad Saheb was born was demolished completely to make space for the place of Saudi
Arabia emperor Abdullah. He alleged that people are opposed to the demolition of remains of
Islamic civilization but they are afraid of speaking anything against the royal family. On the
other hand chief Mufti of Saudi Arabia Sheikh Abdul Aziz supported the Saudi Arabia

government's move of demolishing Islamic remains by saying that if old mosque and tombs
are demolished for expansion and modernization of the city one should not oppose it.

Four Muslims arrested for conspiring to kill British
Queen
Urdu Times on November 10 reported that four Muslim youth between 19 and 27 years of age
have been arrested for conspiring to kill Queen of Britain Elizabeth. According to the police
sources, these youths had the intention of killing the Queen. The police got some intelligence
tip off that some Islamic terrorists wanted to kill Queen of Britain. They had the intension of
killing her during a ceremony organized by the British Army. Several attempts have been
made on the life of Queen Elizabeth earlier also. A conspiracy to kill the Queen and her
husband was hatched in 1970 during their visit to Australia that was foiled by the intelligence
sleuths. The Queen is 88-year-old.

Marriage a disqualification for women to become a
cop
According to Azizulhind (November 20), Indonesia plans to recruit only such women in the
police who are not married. They will have to prove through medical examination that they
are unmarried. Human right watch termed this decision as anti-women. In the biggest Islamic
nation of the world in terms of population, some of the police officials of Indonesia claimed
that earlier also condition of being non-married for the police service was applicable but it was
removed. On the other hand Human Right Watch claimed that it was in force. Several women
who had got recruited in the police confirmed that they had undergone such a test. A 19-year-
old woman said that during medical examination her experience was very bitter. She had to
undress before unknown people and after that she had to undergo medical examination that
was really shameful. This is to recall that there are 4 lakh people in Indonesia police and only 3

per cent of them are women. Recently the government decided to increase participation of
women in it.
IV
Ban on case hearing under Islamic law
Munsif on November 8 reported that the American state Alabama instructed its courts not to
hear cases under Islamic laws. Such a decision was taken so that Islamic laws did not become
hurdle in implementation of national laws. This is to recall that a law in this regard was
proposed before the Assembly by a republican leader Grand Alen but later on the Federal
government of America declared it illegal. Opposing this decision, Muslim leaders said that
this was against the constitution of the US and was done with prejudice against the
community.

Organizers of beauty contest sent to jail
According to Siyasat (November 16), the police foiled an attempt to organize a beauty contest
in Mecca by some women in Saudi Arabia. These women have been arrested and sent to jail for
this un-Islamic act. According to the newspaper some of the citizens lodged a complained that
a campaign in social media was being run for selection of Mallika e Husna Mecca in which
