Right wing bodies can misuse SC ruling on Ayodhya: AIMIM

The AIMIM Sunday said right wing organisations might "misuse" the recent Supreme Court ruling on Ayodhya against Muslims and mosques.

The Supreme Court on September 27 declined to refer to a five-judge Constitution bench the issue of reconsideration of the observations in its 1994 judgement that a mosque was not integral to Islam which had arisen during the hearing of the Ayodhya land dispute.

"The ruling that a mosque is not integral to Islam could be misused by right wing organisations. The ruling adversely impacts mosques in the country for which the RSS and its sister organisations have staked a claim. The SC ruling will affect Muslims," All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) MLA Imtiaz Jaleel said at a programme in Jalna in Maharashtra.

Jalil also expressed concerns over the recent ruling by the apex court decriminalising adultery and gay sex.

He said his party would raise the issue of irregularities in the state Waqf board in the winter session of the state legislature.

He also attacked the Congress which has opposed any alliance with the AIMIM for future polls.
