Srinagar, 25 Nov(KNS): The Jammu and Kashmir National Conference Monday condemned the killing of four innocent muslims and the injuries sustained by numerous other Muslims during the police action at the Shahi Jama Masjid in Uttar Pradesh's Sambhal district.

In his unwavering condemnation of the killings, party State Spokesperson Imran Nabi Dar emphasised that the incident should not be overlooked and the perpetrators should not be allowed to escape justice. He highlighted the escalating violence against Muslims in the state of Uttar Pradesh and their increasing suffering as a result of unjust actions by the local government. He stressed that such incidents not only damage the country's reputation on a global scale but also further marginalize the Muslim community within the nation.

Imran emphatically stated that the Supreme Court has clearly outlined in the Places of Worship Act of 1991 that all religious sites existing in 1947 must remain undisturbed.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel“The Jama Masjid in Sambhal holds a significant historical value as Muslims have been praying there for centuries. It is a mosque that has stood for 500 years, with regular prayers still being offered. Despite this, a survey was conducted immediately after a court order, raising unnecessary questions. The wounds of the Babri Masjid's demolition still haunt the nation, which is why the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act was put in place to protect the sanctity of all religious sites as they were in 1947. The Supreme Court's Ayodhya verdict also stressed the importance of this law. It is concerning to see recent judicial actions disregarding this legislation and delving into such actions without an end.”(KNS).
