New Delhi, Sept 21: All India Muslim Personal Law Board today said the Rae Bareli court verdict discharging Deputy Prime Minister Minister L K Advani in the Babri Masjid demolition case smacked of "politics" and claimed the "actual dispute" over Ayodhya "will never end".
"The judgement smacks of politics as it has come during the election season. This is a case where nobody will ever win or lose. Everyone knows Advani had a key role in the demolition and yet he has been discharged," AIMPLB executive member Maulana Ahmed Ali Qasmi said on the sidelines of a
Muslim advocates' conclave here.
"The actual dispute has been going on for years now and
it will never come to an end. It will keep popping up during
polls," he said.
Referring to the Best Bakery case, Qasmi alleged the
Gujarat government had created an atmosphere of fear which
prevented even Muslim advocates from fighting the case for
their community.
Opposing the implementation of a uniform civil code in
the country, he said Islam and Hinduism had different customs
and it would therefore be "wrong to impose such a code."
The conclave - jointly organised by the law foundation and Darul Qaza (place of justice) asked the Centre to suitably amend the Qazis Act, 1880 to empower Darul Qazas for effective discharge of its dispute resolution work among Muslims.
Darul Qaza convenor Maulana Muzammil Al-Hussaini called
upon the Muslim community to approach qazas for resolution of
their disputes including matrimonial and civil.
