A delegation of Muslim religious leaders called on Union Home Minister Amit Shah late last night and flagged incidents of communal violence after Ram Navami and hate speeches.
The delegation was led by Jamiat Ulama-e-Hind president Maulana Mahmood Madani, secretary Niyaz Faruqui and All India Muslim Personal Law Board members Kamal Faruqui and Professor Akhtarul Wasey.
Speaking to NDTV, Niyaz Faruqui said the delegation raised 14 challenges facing the country. Recent incidents of communal violence in Bihar, West Bengal and Maharashtra were among the key topics discussed in the meeting, he said.
"This was a different Amit Shah from the one we see delivering political speeches. He responded positively, he heard us in detail, he was not in a denial mode," he said.
