Kerala (VSK). “Secularism will survive in India only if the country retains its Hindu traditions”, said K Jamida, general secretary of Quran Sunnath Society. Speaking at the Deendayal Upadhyaya remembrance meet organised by BJP district committee in Kannur, Jamida said though she faced death threats, the Left parties and intellectuals in Kerala did not come to her aid. She said that attempts were made on her life because she had supported the Union government’s legislation banning triple talaq and had campaigned against the wrong customs and priesthood in Islam. “I’m being targeted for trying to reform the society.
Deendayal Upadhyaya and founder of Quran Sunnath Society Chekannur Moulavi paid with their lives for doing the same thing. Deendayal Upadhyaya died under mysterious circumstances. What was his fault? Only one man was sentenced for strangulating Chekannur Moualavi to death. The other accused are roaming free, in search for the next prey,’ said Jamida. “The Left and progressive intellectuals have come out in full support for poet Kureepuzha Sreekumar. All that the organisers of the meet did was to point out to the poet that he was hurting religious sentiments,” she said.
The person who tried to kill me was a Muslim, so no one came to my support, she added. Attacking the Muslim League and SDPI for being parties working solely for Muslims, she said BJP and RSS are organisations which welcomed persons belonging to all religions.
“Hindus belonging to all castes should unite to ensure that India does not become an Islamic country,” she said. Referring to the Akhila-Hadiya case, she said those supporting Akhila should remember that Akhila’s parents too have their rights. “The Central government introduced the Bill against triple talaq as it could empathise with the hardships faced by the Muslim women,” said Jamida. On the occasion, the Malayalam translation of Deendayal Upadhyaya’s ‘Integral Humanism’ was released by former BJP state president CK Padmanabhan by handing over copies of the book to Jamida and Prof. P.N. Sathyanath.
“Muslims are massacring even other Muslims all over the world in the name of the Prophet and the Holy Quran as Islamic scholars failed to teach the real essence of the Holy Book to followers,” said Padhamanabhan.
BJP district president P. Satyaprakash presided over the function. State general secretary B. Gopalakrishnan, state cell coordinator K. Ranjit and district general secretaries KK Vinod Kumar, MK Vinod and K. Radhakrishnan also spoke.
