New Delhi: : The BJP on Sunday went the extra mile to compliment leading Islamic seminary Darul Uloom at Deoband for its fatwa declaring terrorism as the “most inhuman crime”. At the same time, the party took potshots at the Congress-led UPA at the Centre, saying its refusal to enact an anti-terror law showed that it wanted to equate Muslims with terrorism. Welcoming the Darul Uloom edict in his address at the party’s national executive meeting here, BJP president Rajnath Singh noted that “Deoband is seeking to dissociate Muslims from terrorism”. But, he said, the Central Government wants to equate Muslims with terrorism and on this very basis is rejecting an anti-terrorism law. “Perhaps, the Central Government wants to prove itself a bigger messiah of the Muslims, even bigger than the madrasas,” he said.
