Dr. Asma Zehra says that she was treated unjustly; and that in the name of unity, women's activities were curtailed

Talking to The Free Press Journal, Dr Asma Zehra–who was the Women Wing's Convenor–revealed what led to the suspension of the AIMPLB's Women Wing.

The AIMPLB said there appears to be a trend of filing the PIL petitions selectively targeting the issues relating to a particular minority community.

Varanasi district court on Monday said it will continue to hear a petition seeking daily worship of Hindu deities whose idols are located on an outer wall of the Gyanvapi Masjid, dismissing the mosque committees argument that the case is not maintainable.

The Hyderabad MP said that the district court’s order will have a destabilising effect and several other similar demands will crop up.

A Varanasi court upheld maintainability of a petition for daily worship of Hindu deities whose idols are located on an outer wall of Gyanvapi mosque.

The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) has questioned the targeted actions against Madrasas by the Uttar Pradesh and Assam governments both ruled by the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP).

The statement by AIMPLB came against the backdrop of the Uttar Pradesh government’s decision to conduct a survey of unrecognised madrassas in the state to gather details about the number of teachers and students, curriculum, and basic facilities available there, among others.

Amid the ongoing row over madrassas, the All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) on Friday slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and said the action against madrassas is unconstitutional.

The All India Muslim Personal Law Board has moved the Supreme Court opposing challenges to the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act, 1991.
