Imphal, September 05 2017:
President of the All Manipur Muslim Development Committee, Md Sayeed Ahmad Sheikh has condemned in a press release today the statement in the social media by Y Devjit, s/o Y Joykumar, Deputy CM who posted that sacrificing of animals by Muslims on Id-ul-Zuha is nothing but to familiarise themselves with taking human lives.

It further said that freedom of religious practice is a right guaranteed by the Constitution of India, even if Y Devjit is ignorant of it and it is quite unfortunate.
He further asked the Govt to take strict actions against such insensitive remarks which can amount to incitement of communal feelings.
It warned of various forms of agitation if no action is taken up against him .
All Manipur Muslim United Clubs’ Organisation (AMMUCO) and All India Tanzeem-e-Insaaf have also strongly denounced the ‘irresponsible’ statement of Y Devjit.
