Kerala Muslim Jamaat seeks action over death threat against PM
The Kerala Muslim Jamaat has condemned a death threat made against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, labeling it an attempt to incite communal disharmony. The organization has called for strict legal action against those responsible for the threat and those spreading misinformation regarding the incident.
Why it matters
This highlights ongoing efforts by religious organizations to maintain communal peace and distance themselves from extremist rhetoric in politically sensitive regions.
The Malappuram district committee of the Kerala Muslim Jamaath has alleged that the death threat to Prime Minister Narendra Modi was a deliberate attempt to disturb communal harmony in the district. It demanded strict legal action against those behind the threat.
In a statement issued after its district committee meeting on Wednesday, the organisation also sought action against those who circulated the social media post in a manner that spread misinformation and hatred.
It said those who sought to justify the act by attributing it to “mental illness” or gave it a communal colour to promote religious polarisation should also face legal action. The committee urged people to remain united against attempts to disturb peace.
