Muslim-Hindu marraiges: Congress bows before pressure tactics of Muslims

No inquiry to be held into matters related to marriage of Hindu girls with Muslim boys – State Home minister

Mumbai: “The Government cannot interfere between two Hindu – Muslim persons getting married with mutual consent when none of them is a minor. (But the Congress Govt. can definitely interfere when Mulla-maulavis openly appeal for conversion of Hindu girls and for that, declare allowances to Muslim boys; but the pro-Muslim Congress Government has not done so. This shows that the Congress Government has no intention of stopping Muslims from whatever they want to do! – Editor SP) Therefore, no orders have been issued for conducting any inquiry into marriages of Hindu girls with Muslims.” The above explanation was given by Shri. Nitin Raut, the State Minister for Home Department in a press conference.

Raut had in fact, assured to conduct an inquiry into these matters during the Legislative Assembly session due to which Muslim community was very much perturbed. (Anger of Muslims indicates that the purpose behind such marriages is not pure and there is some deceitful motive. If that was not so, Muslims would not have been concerned even if a number of inquiries were held against them! – Editor SP)

Nasim Siddiqui, the President of the Minority Commission had declared that the Commission and Muslim Organizations would submit a representation to the Chief Minister that the government had no right to interfere in such matters and so, it should not conduct any inquiry. In this background, the above statement of Raut indicates that the Muslims are exerting pressure on the Government. (Who is ruling this State, the elected representatives of the Congress or Muslims? – Editor SP)

Raut said further, “BJP members had submitted a memorandum expressing intense displeasure over the presence of some gangs of Muslim youth luring Hindu girls into love affairs and then converting them. However, no such gangs seem to be operative. (Many incidents of Muslims luring Hindu girls into love affairs, getting married with them by posing themselves as bachelors, Hindu girls going missing after getting married to Muslims and of ‘Love Jihad’ etc. are coming to fore, but the Congress State Home Minister seems to have turned a blind eye to everything due to his love for Muslims! – Editor SP)

There is no evidence of Muslim youth roaming in the areas of schools or tuition classes to lure Hindu girls; there are no ploys to convert Hindu girls nor has it been noticed that the Muslim youth get money or vehicles for such conversions. (How many areas outside schools or tuition classes have been secretly inspected by the police? How many madarasas or houses of such involved Muslims have been raided by the police? On what basis then Raut is certifying Muslims as innocent and guiltless? – Editor SP)

In the background of elections, political parties generally try to politicise certain events by creating communal rift and this seems to be one of such events.” (When Hindu girls are in danger, how can Raut be so shameless? In the upcoming state elections, Hindus must defeat the Congress who is certifying Muslims as gentlemen with an eye on their vote-bank! – Editor SP)

Probe into Maharashtra's Muslim boy-Hindu girl marriages

July 5 , 2009

Ashadh Shuddha Trayodashi

MUMBAI: Maharashtra’s Criminal Investigation Department (CID) meant to probe high-profile cases will now investigate love affairs that have resulted in marriages between Hindu girls and Muslim boys.

CID has been told to check whether Muslim boys are enticing Hindu girls as part of a ‘conspiracy’. Minister of state for home (rural) Nitin Raut had announced this in the assembly on the last day of Maharashtra’s budget session a fortnight back.

Participating in a calling attention notice, Eknath Khadse and Devendra Fadnavis had said young Muslim boys in rural areas were wooing Hindu college girls and then marrying them. According to them, this was part of a ‘conspiracy’ to increase the population of the community. Khadse even alleged that some Hindu girls had been sent to Gulf.

In his reply, Raut admitted such incidents were happening. ‘‘I will initiate an inquiry into this,’’ the minister had promised. But the opposition demanded that he order a CID probe as the issue was serious. Subsequently, Raut gave in to their demands.

CID chief SPS Yadav said, ‘‘We have yet to receive the order. The first thing we will have to do is to check whether such an inquiry is in consonance with the CID manual. If not, we will inform the government about the norms,’’ he said. ‘‘If government persists, we will decide on how to carry out these investigations.’’

Raut’s announcement has not gone down well with his cabinet colleagues and leaders of the Muslim community. Senior NCP leader and labour minister Nawab Malik said BJP has political interest in raising such issues.

Congress leader and minister of state for home (urban) Arif Naseem Khan said there is no provision in law where member of a particular community can be stopped from marrying a girl or boy of another community. ‘‘If any case where a girl or boy is pressurised into getting married to member of other community, the offender should be certainly punished,’’ he added.

Refuting the allegations made by Malik and Khan, Fadnavis said, ‘‘Had we wanted to politicise the issue, we would have carried out morcha and protest, instead we demanded CID inquiry that shows that our intention was not to gain political mileage of the issue.’’
