Jamiat Ulema-E-Hind moves SC, seeks court’s direction to prevent ‘communalization of Nizamuddin Markaz Issue’

New Delhi: The Jamiat-Ulma-i-Hind has moved Supreme court and sought directions to prevent, what it called, communalization of Nizamuddin Markaz issue by certain sections of media.

The plea alleges that reports on the Tablighi Jamaat by certain sections of print and electronic media have “demonised the entire Muslim community.”

The petition also claimed that most of reports were presented in a twisted manner, using phrases like “Corona Jihad”, “Corona Terrorism” or “Islamic Resurrection”.
