Mumbai: After a case was registered in Mumbai-Kanpur for writing a banner of “I Love Muhammad” on Eid Milad-un-Nabi, “I Love Muhammad” is trending across the country. In such a situation, Maharashtra’s Minister and BJP leader Nitesh Rane has now started a campaign of “I Love Muhammad” in Maharashtra on social media. On this, Nitesh Rane said that “I Love Mahadev” i.e. “M for Maharashtra” and “M for Mumbai” will remain “I Love Mahadev”. Is it Hindu Rashtra? Will “I Love Mahadev” be written in Pakistan or Karachi? He said that we have started the “I Love Mahadev” campaign, which has become popular. It should be noted that the “I Love Mahadev” campaign has been started in response to “I Love Muhammad” and false forces are trying to spoil the atmosphere with it. After the removal of the banner of “I Love Muhammad” and the action taken, Muslims have protested incessantly. In such a situation, attempts are being made to create a Hindu-Muslim conflict in Maharashtra as well. Nitieh Rane has started a campaign of “I Love Mahadev” here. Now, along with creating a conflict on social media, some Sectarian elements are also conspiring to destroy the environment.

Mumbai: Samajwadi Party MLA from Bhiwandi East Raees Sheikh has allocated Rs 10 crore approved by the Minority Department for the publicity of the three-day Golden Jubilee celebrations of the State Urdu Sahitya Academy. MLA Sheikh has said in a letter to Minority Development Minister Manekrao Kokate that the government is struggling to provide funds to the academy and money is being wasted on publicity.
Giving details in this regard, Raees Sheikh said that on September 18, the State Urdu Sahitya Academy was approved for only an annual fund of Rs 1.20 crore and an annual office expenditure of Rs 7.6 lakh. However, a fund of Rs 10 crore was approved on September 25 for the three-day publicity of the Golden Jubilee celebrations of the academy.
The original program required more funds. But instead of allocating money there, a huge amount has been given for publicity. Because the publicity work was done by the Information and Public Relations Department. This is one percent of the budget and the academy will not benefit from this publicity. In fifty years, the state government has not been able to provide its own office to the academy. Many posts are vacant in the academy. The academy cannot implement any measure due to lack of funds, so giving Rs 10 crore for a three-day publicity is an invitation to corruption, alleged MLA Raees Sheikh. A fund of Rs 50 crore will be kept in the name of the academy for 50 years. Also, a fund of Rs 5 crore will be given annually and the academy will not be shifted from the Fort, this assurance was given by the then Minority Affairs Minister in a meeting three months ago. The department has not fulfilled a single promise yet. MLA Raees Sheikh has alleged that the state government is discriminating against the State Urdu Sahitya Academy. Raees Sheikh has demanded that the golden jubilee programme of the academy be planned immediately and adequate funds be provided for it.

Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi said that writing “I Love Muhammad (PBUH)” is not a crime. If a Muslim hangs a banner of “I Love Muhammad (PBUH)” on Eid Milad-un-Nabi (PBUH) in UP, then it is wrong to file a case against him. That is why Muslims have protested against the action of the UP police. Communalism is on the rise in the country and one religion and Muslims are being targeted. He said that there has been a case of desecration of the Holy Quran in Mumbai’s Sakinaka. Earlier too, we had demanded that a strict law be made against insulting and desecrating important persons including the Holy Quran and religious books and that they be punished for 10 years, but so far no legislation has been made in the assembly. We have also presented a bill on it, but still the government is not considering it. Therefore, we have to protest against it now. On Shah Rukh Khan being conferred with the National Award, Abu Asim Azmi said that Shah Rukh Khan is the uncrowned king of acting in Bollywood. It is not right to give him an award for being a Muslim. But if the BJP has given this award keeping in mind the elections, then they should understand that Shah Rukh Khan is a secular person and BJP will not benefit from it, while Shah Rukh Khan is the best actor and he also deserves this award. Azmi said that if the army fought a war and won, then the credit is given to Prime Minister Modi ji. Modi ji’s name is mentioned in everything. While the GST was reduced, now it is being said that a better environment has been created in the country and this will benefit the people. Then why was GST implemented? The BJP does politics and propaganda on everything. It has nothing to do with public welfare.
