'15 lakh, announced, Ayodhya, construction, donation, high court verdict, Hussaini Tigers, outfit, Ram temple, Shia youth Lucknow, Oct. 2: Hussaini Tigers, an outfit of Shia youth, has announced a donation of `15 lakh for starting construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya after the High Court verdict.
The Hussaini Tigers further announced that it would oppose any move to challenge the Allahabad High Court verdict in the Supreme Court.
Mr Shamil Shamsi, chief of Hussaini Tigers, told reporters on Saturday that he would formally request the Sunni Central Waqf Board not to go on appeal to the Supreme Court. A delegation will also meet members of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board with a similar appeal. “This is the right time to bring this long-pending dispute to an end and ensure everlasting peace and harmony between the two communities,” he said.
Mr Shamsi, incidentally, is a close relative of the Shia cleric, Maulana Maulana Kalbe Sadiq, senior vice-president of the Board. Maulana Kalbe Jawaad, another well known Shia cleric, is the chief patron of Hussaini Tigers. He termed as “extremely unfortunate” the criticism of the verdict by Maulana Ahmed Bukhari, the Shahi Imam of Delhi’s Jama Masjid and also by the Samajwadi Party chief, Mr Mulayam Singh Yadav.
“Muslims had promised that they would abide by the court verdict and now is the time to honour their commitment made to the nation,” he added.
