In the Farrukhabad district of Uttar Pradesh, a Muslim man named Kunwar Asif Ali was allegedly threatened by the Imam of a mosque, for wearing a saffron-coloured (Kesariya/Bhagwa) Kurta while offering namaz.
Uttarakhand High Court directed the local police station in charge to provide security to a Hindu woman wanting to offer namaz at Piran Kaliyar mosque in the state's Roorkee area.
The parents stated that the students at the Assembly were made to forcefully offer Namaz and Fathia. The parents amid the massive protest on Wednesday also chanted Hanuman Chalisa and demanded FIR in the case.
The report added that provisions are being made to prevent any law and order situation, which may arise after the Jumma Namaz is conducted. It further stated that the police and administration in West Bengal and Gujarat are taking precautionary steps to avoid untoward incidents after the Friday prayers.
