If the principle of jamaat is to make a better muslim, then what is the need for leader to hide? Why can’t jamaat appeal to all attendees to come forward on their own so that administration doesn’t have to conduct a national level hunt? Why maulvis are hiding fellow attendees in their homes and local mosques? Why jamaat was allowing people to stay with expired visas/passports?
This is not the time of communal sensation and I am not trying to trigger that. I would have expressed the same agression against any community coz the issue in hand is above everything.
But please don’t try to sugar coat things or glorify the mistake. You have a lot of time to work on jamaat image improvement, but for now write articles which appeals the jamaat to act more responsibly.

The Nizamuddin dargha primarily belongs to a sufi strain or a secular strain while I not sure of the same about TJ which I think is considered somewhat extremist form of Islam.So the two coming together is puzzling about which the author has nothing to say.Further such a big gathering and its timing too raise questions.Next the Indian devotees are mostly from non-Hindi states and Delhi where the H-M divide or polarisation is virtually not very pronounced.Further such a huge gathering involving over 100 mullahs from Islamic countries could not have gone from the gaze of center whose MEA must have given visas besides the IB and RAW keeping a hawk eye on both foreign n local muslim delegates.The entire event looks somewhat fishy not as plain as it looks on the surface.
