BHUBANESWAR: Muslims from different corners of the country and outside assembled in a congregation organised to build a movement against terrorism and pledged themselves to fighting divisive forces here on Sunday.
At the conference on anti-terrorism and global peace, organised by Jamaiat-Ulama-I-Hind, Muslim intellectuals and religious heads condemned the act of terrorism or violence in any form whether by an individual or an organisation.
“The whole country should strive to bring misled section of youth of the country to right path. We should stop them by all means,” they said.
“It is mandatory for us to help each other in maintaining peace and harmony in society,” said Hazrat Maulan Syed Mehemood Asad Madani, head of Jamaiat-Ulama-I-Hind.
He said, “for us India is safest country in the world. We are stakeholders in the country’s development. Our predecessors had made sacrifice to free India from colonialism. Now the foremost duty before us is to fight divisive forces to take the country on path of development.”
The conference of Jamaiat-Ulama-I-Hind appealed to media organizations to refrain from presenting terrorism synonymous to any religion and called them not to interpret events with bias.
Maulana Abdul Mouyeedd Quasmi read out fatwa issued by Darul-Uloom, Deoband, against terrorism. The fatwa said there was no place for terrorism in Islam.
Passing a resolution, Jamaiat-Ulama-I-Hind demanded that a law against communal violence be formulated as early as possible. Hazrat Maulana Quari Syed Md. Usman, president of Jamaiat-Ulama-I-Hind administered oath to delegates on fighting terrorism.
Addressing the massive rally in the evening, Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik said his Government was committed to protecting life and property of every citizen. Any form of terrorism should be condemned in strongest possible terms, he said.
Swami Agnivesh, a social activist, said efforts should be made to keep communal forces at bay. They were the biggest threat to nations stability, he said. Another Hindu religious leader Baba Balia also spoke at the occasion.

HUJI tried to kill Kalam
New Delhi (PTI): Six Harkat-ul-Jehadi-e-Islami (HUJI) terrorists, accused of plotting to kidnap cricketers Sachin Tendulkar and Saurav Ganguly, had also attempted to assassinate A P J Abdul Kalam during his visit to Patna in 2001, the prosecution told a Delhi court on Monday.
"They (terrorists) also tried to assassinate A P J Abdul Kalam (the then Scientific Advisor to the Defence Ministry), when he visited Patna, but their plan could not succeed due to lack of logistic support there," Public Prosecutor Anita Hooda submitted before Additional Sessions Judge Pinki.
The chilling disclosure was made by Tariq Mohammed, a Pakistan-based HUJI militant, during his custodial interrogation, the prosecutor said while continuing with final arguments for the third day.
The arrested HUJI men were working at the instructions of their Pakistan-based masters, Asif Raza Khan, Umar Sheikh and Azam Cheema, she said.
"The leaders wanted them to abduct Sachin Tendulkar for ransom to raise funds for their terrorist activities. They also wanted to kidnap Saurav for the purpose of securing the release of their two men lodged in jails," the prosecutor, while referring to the chargesheet, submitted.
Besides attempting to kill Kalam, the accused also had a plan to "carry out explosions" at Bhaba Atomic Research Centre, Trombay, the prosecutor said.

Pakistan, BJP celebrate Communal violance in India- Shakeel Ahmed
Central Minister Dr. Shakeel Ahmed, at a seminar on terrorism and communalism at the Gandhi Museum in Patna on Monday, accused both Pakistan and the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) for stirring up trouble involving Hindus and Muslims to serve their own interests as and when needed.
"Any time there is a Hindu-Muslim conflict in India both Pakistan and BJP activists distribute sweets and celebrate," Ahmed said adding the Pakistani leaders knew that they could remain in power only by creating communal chaos in India.
The Congress leader accused the BJP of trying to derive political mileage out of the Mumbai terrorist attacks and appealed to the people not to support those who celebrate the killer of Mahatma Gandhi.
Classifying terrorists into four categories, Ahmed said they had no caste or religion and came in different flavors including the foreign-sponsored terrorists, domestic extremists like the Naxalites, the separatist, and the regionalists who were damaging the secular fiber of the nation.
Former Chief Minister Ram Sundar Das, museum secretary Dr. Razi Ahmed, and Jiyalal Arya also spoke on the occasion.
"If everyone just followed the path of Mahatma Gandhi, we would not have communal unrest as we have recently in our nation," Das said.

Pakistanis must realise their mistakes
sSanao Menghwar has had three of his daughters kidnapped, then forced to marry Muslim men. That means that the young women were coerced into becoming Islamics.
This happens daily, particularly in the Pakistani Sindh province, according to Hasan Mansoor, reporter, Midday.com.
Other Hindus in the province worry when their daughters will disappear. Therefore, there are entire Hindu families leaving Pakistan for Canada, India or other nations.Menghewar and his wife left their house on errands. When they returned to their residence, their daughters were missing. They reported the missing young women to the police department, filing the necessary papers. Neighbors helped them on a search party to locate the daughters, but to no avail.
Menghwar’s daughters have yet to be found. However, authorities have arrested three Islamic young men assumed to be connected with the girls’ kidnapping. The men have been released on bail by a court due to the men being minors.
"’Kidnapping Hindu girls like this has become a normal practice. The girls are then forced to sign stamp papers stating that they’ve become Muslims,’ says Laljee Menghwar, a member of the Hindu Panchayat in Karachi."
Because of Muslim threats, Hindus have had to turn to what those in the Netherlands are resorting to. Both areas have been under extreme pressure from maiming and killing Islamics so that the local citizens have put into action what one person refers to as "self-censorship."
There is no talk. There is no public utterance. There is nothing said negatively about the Muslims in the area for fear of being slain.
So it is that Islamic killers international could overtake country after country, area after area. Instill such fear in the people that no one speaks the facts concerning local Islamics kidnapping and killing; therefore, they have open skies to do just that — more so.
"’Hindus here are too frightened to vent their anger — they fear victimization,’ said one local."
Nevertheless, Pakistani Christian community members have come to their aid. The Christians have organized support for the Hindus persecuted by Muslims. The Christians have "carried out a demonstration with them in Karachi, protesting against this crime.
