“If the Prime Minister is serious, then he should put a full stop to lynching of Muslim men. Most victims are Pasmanda. All the attacks in the name of gauraksha should stop. Love Jihad attacks should stop. And attacks on namaz in the open should stop. A well-off Muslim does not pray in the park or road. It is the poor, the Pasmanda who pray in the park and are attacked there. Until these things stop, the Prime Minister’s remarks will appear to be a mere ruse to divide the Muslim community.” –Pasmanda leader, Ali Anwar Ansari on Prime Minister Modi’s call to BJP cadre to reach out to the Pasmanda community
