Editorial viewpoint

The Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind in the year 2019, after the Supreme Court’s verdict in favour of Hindus in the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi case of Ayodhya, said ‘Today is the darkest day in the history of Independent India’. Therefore, what’s wrong if someone says that condemning the Udaipur incident by such an anti-Hindu organisation is superficial  ?
