Sayed Sarwar Chishti, the Khadim of the Ajmer Sharif Dargah had kicked up a row with his provocative remarks, and his son Syed Aadil Chishti made highly objectionable and derogatory statements against Hindu deities.
Ajmer: Ajmer Dargah Khadim Gauhar Chishti, who was on the run after raising objectionable slogans against suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma, was arrested in Telangana’s Hyderabad on Thursday.
“Gauhar Chishti arrested by Police from Hyderabad, Telangana. He had raised objectionable slogans outside Dargah on June 17,” stated Vikas Sangwan, Additional SP, Ajmer. Gauhar Chishti and his associate were brought from Hyderabad to Jaipur airport.
The cleric in a video was seen allegedly raising slogans at the Ajmer Sharif Dargah premises.
Three Khadim (cleric) of the Dargah–Gauhar Chishti, Aadil Chishti, and Sarwar Chishti– has given provocative statements against Nupur Sharma, according to NDTV.
Sayed Sarwar Chishti, the Khadim of the Ajmer Sharif Dargah had kicked up a row with his provocative remarks, and his son Syed Aadil Chishti made highly objectionable and derogatory statements against Hindu deities. Aadil Chishti can be heard making offensive comments against Hindu Gods in a video clip.
His statement comes against the backdrop of now-suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma’s remarks on Prophet Mohammad that had led to widespread violent protests across the country and also drew condemnation from some Islamic countries.
A few days ago, Sarwar Chishti, secretary of the Anjuman Committee, had warned of a movement that would “shake India”. He had said if Prophet Mohammad is insulted then the Muslims will begin a movement that would jolt India.
However, Sarwar Chishti was on Tuesday seen at a peace rally in Rajasthan which was organized by religious leaders. He also appealed to Hindus and Muslims to live together peacefully. “It is my desire to see peace and harmony in the country. I want people of both communities to live together with peace and harmony,” Sarwar Chishti said.
