Muslims Relive Memories Of Violence As Ram Mandir Inauguration Inches Closer

Over the past few years, however, Muslim organisations and residents of the area feel that their heritage and even their physical presence are being pushed to the peripheries. Aazam Qadri, the President of Anjuman Muhafiz Masajid wa Makabir, a local committee formed to save Waqf properties in Ayodhya, says that while the community is happy about the construction of the Ram temple, there is concern about the neglect and illegal usurping of important religious spots for Muslims, including masjids, bazaars, dargarhs, madrasas and graveyards. “In the past few months, several attempts have been made to illegally sell, purchase or usurp Wafq properties like masjids, dargahs, graveyards,” he states.
