Alappuzha: After the ban on the Popular Front of India (PFI) by the Union Government, religious fundamentalists are in the field to ignite religious fanaticism and hatred; but now they are in different colours and different names.
In Alappuzha, it is under the banner of Wahdat-e-Islami. They propagate communal sentiments and hatred. Postering is the medium of their propaganda.
These sorts of activities are taking place in the strongholds of PFI. Their venomous propaganda is against the union government, which banned PFI, and the media, which exposed their anti-national activities.
These activities are meant to impress the people that they are still active. There are reports that they are secretly propagating hate sentiments against other religions to lead the youths to religious terrorism.
But, police still have not moved even a little finger to find out the forces behind the poster campaign. Even common people maintain that police have turned a big zero in checking PFI strongholds and prominent workers. Now, SDPI, the political offshoot of PFI, tries to intervene in people’s issues to get their support.
It is reported that SDPI’s anti-narcotic activities are in this direction. SDPI carries out anti-narcotic activities while allegations are ripe that the illegal flow of narcotics and gold to Kerala is for funding religious terrorism.
