Jamaat-e-Islami Hind condemns Udaipur murder

New Delhi, 29 June 2022: Jamaat-e-Islami Hind (JIH) has condemned the murder of a person in Udaipur who was allegedly accused of inciting religious sentiments.

 

In a statement to the media, the JIH Vice President, Prof Salim Engineer said: “We condemn the barbaric and uncivilized murder of Kanhaiyalal of Udaipur. There is no room for justification for such violence in Islam. Those found guilty of his murder should be punished according to the law of the land. The government must stop mischief-makers from taking advantage of this incident to create social unrest. Peace and law and order should be maintained at all costs. The statements being issued by some political leaders show their immaturity and their ugly intention to play the vote bank politics. The incident reflects the growing tendency of people to take the law into their hands. This trend is dangerous for our society and should be curbed. People lose faith in the police and judiciary. If they either do not get justice or they feel prejudiced. Unfortunately, the political environment of our country is encouraging aggression and hatred and reducing empathy and tolerance. It is time for all peace and justice-loving citizens of our country to join hands and fight against hatred and violence”.
