Aligarh: Muslim intellectuals here have attacked Samajwadi Party president Mualayam Singh Yadav, saying he was not a sincere well-wisher of the Muslim community.
Members of the Forum for Muslim Studies and Analysis (FMSA) were reacting Wednesday to Yadav’s comment that he has always cared for the culture, language and religious beliefs of Muslims.
“The reality is that Mulayam Singh Yadav has always played the politics of riots and sheltered Kalyan Singh in his party although he is a culprit in the demolition of the Babri Masque,” said professor Razaullah Khan.
Jasim Mohammad, secretary general of FMSA, said: “Riots have always taken place during Samajwadi Party’s rule. More than 100 riots have taken place now.” (IANS)
