On Thursday, a Delhi-based lawyer filed a complaint with Delhi Police against Samajwadi Party (SP) Lok Sabha MP Shafikur Rehman Barq for his recent statement on Ram Temple construction.
According to the complaint, Shafikur Rehman Barq in his recent statement stated that "Ram temple being built forcibly, construction is against the law. The Babri Masjid was martyred & the temple is being built."
Advocate Vineet Jindal, a practising lawyer of Delhi states in the complaint that the "Supreme Court of India passed a judgment dated November 9, 2019, after which the Ram Mandir temple construction was started in Ayodhya, & a separate land was also provided to the Muslim community for the construction of Mosque but the statement made by the accused questions the judgment passed by the Supreme court which is a contempt to the court's judgement & also provocative, inflammatory, derogatory & inciting statement with an intent to wage war between the Hindu & Muslim communities".
The complainant alleged that such a statement by a popular public person who is also a sitting Member of Parliament is an "attempt to create hatred between the Hindu & Muslim community & also incites Muslim community to develop a distrust for the judiciary, against Hindu community & the secular & democratic setup of our country thus it is an effort to create riots & wage war in the country".
Jindal has sought an FIR against the Lok Sabha MP under sections 121, 153, 153A & B, 295, 298 & 505 of IPC which are cognizable offences & very serious in nature.
The Complaint reads, "We are a secular country which believes in the law of the land which secures and ensures equality among all the people irrespective of their caste, race & religion but the influential public figures who have certainly an indelible impact on generation now & generations to come if would indulge in negative statements against the judgments passed by the honourable court of India which are in cohesion with the principles laid by the constitution of India, then how could the youth of India firmly believe in its secular & democratic nature".
