Condemning the brutal and dastardly act of Pakistani army against Indian soldiers, a large number of Muslims, led by the Nayab Shahi Imam of Punjab, Maulana Usman Rehmani, raised slogans against the neighbouring nation and burnt an effigy of Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.

Speaking on the occasion, Rehmani said the mutilation of dead bodies of Indian Army jawans by the Pakistani army, had exposed the real face of Pakistan and its evil designs to create instability in India, especially Jammu and Kashmir. “Pakistan cannot get away with this kind of inhuman acts. Indian army will give a befitting reply to this provocative action,” he said.

The Nayab Shahi Imam urged the Government of India to stop all kinds of dialogue with the neighbouring country and go for army action. “Talk to Pakistan in the language that it understands,” Rehmani stressed.

He said members of the Muslim community would stand by their Hindu, Sikh and Christian brethren at this critical juncture. “We might have some political differences with the government, or for that matter members of other communities but, when it comes to solidarity and unity of India, we are all one,” he added.

Rehmani asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to teach Pakistan a lesson for mutilating dead bodies of the India soldiers, which was more important. The issue of ‘triple divorce’ (teen talaq) could be sorted out later, he said.
