"Let us not get misled by so called 'leaders' of our community who want to keep us backward."
All week some political parties have opposed an important legislation in Parliament. They have done this in the most shameful way, disrupting proceedings, destroying property and almost physically manhandling our Vice President, a sober and learned gentleman.
They do this in the name of Muslim interests.
They say they are concerned about the fate of Muslim women.
