Radhika Singh reported here: “An unnerving 3400-strong Muslim congregation at the Nizamuddin Markaz mosque in Delhi defied the lockdown and embarked on an unprecedented bio-war, which you may refer to as Corona Jihad, from India’s capital city.”
But the Delhi Minorities Commission wants the Indian government to stop talking about that because doing so supposedly fuels “Islamophobia.” Has the Delhi Minorities Commission spoken to the Tablighi Jamat about ending its practices that led to the spread of the coronavirus? Almost certainly not. The image of Islam is in all cases what must be protected most, even above the health and safety of the populace.
“Avoid ‘Islamophobia fuelling’ Nizamuddin updates from bulletins: Minority panel tells Delhi govt,” by Sana Shakil, Express News Service, April 10, 2020:
NEW DELHI: The Delhi Minorities Commission (DMC) on Thursday asked the Delhi government’s health department to stop mentioning Nizamuddin Markaz in its daily bulletins on coronavirus cases, stating that the “thoughtless classification was feeding into the Islamophobia agenda”.
In a letter to the secretary, Delhi Health Department, chairman of the panel Zafarul Islam Khan asked the department to drop any mention of “religious undertones” which can be exploited for political or communal purposes by “vested interests”.
The daily bulletins update the number of fresh coronavirus cases and deaths due to the epidemic including figures of those who were evacuated from Tablighi Jamat Markaz after they were stranded there due to lockdown.
According to the last updated bulletin on Wednesday, the total number of coronavirus cases in Delhi were 669 including 426 from the Markaz. “Such thoughtless classification is feeding into the Islamophobia agenda of the media and Hindutva forces and has been easily turned into a handle to attack Muslims across the country,” Khan alleged in his letter.
Khan’s letter comes a day after he issued notices to the Delhi Police Commissioner seeking action in cases of hate crimes against Muslims, following the incident at Nizamuddin, which has become the country’s largest hotspot for coronavirus….
OTTER says
Islam wants an exception to the laws of physics. They invariably put the cart before the horse.
So let me make it very clear to the Muslim dumbheads:
First, you spread disease and filth by ignoring authorities.
Then, we dislike you for doing so– a very rational thing.
Then you complain of Islamophobia.
Let’s get the order straight here: YOU stop spreading disease and THEN we will stop blaming you.
There is nothing as rational, as essential as what you call ‘Islamophobia’ which is just plain ol’ facts, dude.
Do you get it, you Muslim dude? Maybe not. I understand… all that inbreeding.

If I see any more American Christians insisting on their religious right to worship in defiance of the local emergency health orders, maybe I will show them this story so they can see how similar they are acting to their Muslim counterparts.
Julia says
Well said …. we are in Lockdown for a reason , and at this point on a need to know basis because of public stupidity .
Rj Staves says
but in the US if they gather they are fined but a Muslim would try to kill you for doing that when you point at a group remember 1 finger is pointing out the rest are pointing back at you.
gravenimage says
Yes–it is Muslims who are rioting and attacking police.
Nate Greene says
I’m not sure if a few hundred physically separated in a church is the equivalent to the 3.4K referenced in the article Bob.
As a cradle Catholic, I for one lament not being able to attend ANY services during the holiest week of the year for Christians. Some sensible accommodation can usually be made.
b.a. freeman says
most of the time – with exceptions, of course – we christians are now trying to avoid contact. in case U live under a rock, many churches are using low-power FM broadcasts to congregants gathered in the parking lot – *inside* their cars, with the windows rolled up. unless this is an islamic virus that is able to osmotically pass through glass, steel, and plastic (or magically; it could be passed by djinn!), there will be no contact or virus-sharing.
of course, there are localities that *still* hand out tickets for this kind of gathering. presumably, the people running these places believe that ideology (leftish, of course) trumps biology and physics. and yes, there was a pastor of a mega-church who was still holding services in the sanctuary, but IIRC, that was either early last week or late the previous week.
sieg heil, BTW; looks like U guys on the left will soon have enough control to start rounding up people like me and re-educating us with 9 mm. slugs!

Perhaps the Judaphobia expressed in the Quran could be deleted in the cause of eliminating
“religious undertones” which can be exploited for political or communal purposes by “vested interests”…
Ha ha… yeah right 🤣😂
DHazard says
Since viruses spread faster than the truth an entire congregation of Muslims exposed themselves to an unpleasant death just out of gullibility. And now they want their mistake to just disappear? What words of comfort did this particular imam have for the dying members of his flock? How about; “The Jews did it”. Or, “It is not up to us to understand the ways of Allah”. That gets him off the hook, almost; “So now that I’ve BS’ed my way out of responsibility please pretend like we never got together that fateful day, best forgotten.”
Westman says
Inshullah (Allah willed it) – the last refuge to avoid responsibility.

Indian people..rid yourself of this murderous cult ….while you can. Save your country!
b.a. freeman says
Frank, the history of islam in india is far worse than anything experienced by any other people, because they were real dyed-in-the-wool polytheists, not “people of the book,” when they were attacked by the ummah. i rather think that a lot of them have been able to figure out that islam is poisonous!
OTOH, their elites seem to be cut from the same socialist cloth as ours: they lie big, or they … lie bigger!

Yes–India has suffered more than perhaps any other place under Islam–and this is saying a great deal.

Bob Thompson says
There are anonymous online ‘supposed’ Christians who are agitating Christians to demand their rights to worship in large gatherings in defiance of the law.
The smart Christians say that the Second Greatest Commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself.
Gathering in these congregations and then going into the community and possibly spreading the virus is not my idea of loving my neighbor.
That is called HATING your neighbor!
Which is what “NICE” Muslims do by helping their Muslim family members and friends to come here. They know that Sharia kills any free civilization if there are enough Muslims in the new jurisdiction.
And they know we prefer OUR laws and form of government, but they pretend to our faces to be good neighbors and when no one is looking, some of them are doing everything they can to replace our systems with theirs.
Not good neighbors, I’d say.
somehistory says
Of course the moslims are insisting on the Truth being hidden from those with a need to know.
It’s the same when a moslim carries out a terror attack…they don’t want the fact of his/her moslimness to be a part of the story or mentioned in the report of the attack.
moslims are terribly afraid of the Truth. They defy logic and say they won’t catch the virus, or they say **if** they catch it, they will cough, sneeze, spit, breathe, etc. on others so as to spread it and kill infidels.
But, even though they say these things, and do things to make themselves and others ill, no one must say the facts. All facts, a.k.a. “the Truth”,” must, at all times, be squelched or the moslims whine and complain that no one likes them, a.k.a. the “phobia” that is not real.
However, they never change their M.O. It’s the same old evil behavior, and then when people notice that moslims are engaging in evil behavior, they fuss, fume and whine and won’t the Truth to be silenced.
Gork says
Jews follow a concept of “evil speech.” The speech can be absolutely true. But if it is not said with the purpose of doing a good cause, then it is better left unsaid.
There are many things about Islam that people would be wise to broadcast, but in a helpful manner. Education is one good reason.
And likewise, preventing harmful diseases from spreading is another. It is not Islamophobia. We say similar things about megachurches holding services. We rightfully condemn them for doing so because it spreads disease. In this case, the Mosque held services AFTER having been told that a pandemic is raging.
This is unconscionable. It serves no useful purpose. If this congregation of Islam refuses to adapt for the purpose of keeping everyone healthy then it must be condemned. And if the congregation doesn’t like people saying things like that, there are many more things that could happen that they won’t like.
Whatever the outcome, I wish no less than having the congregation understand what they have done. And then I want them to live with the knowledge of the terrifyingly selfish evil they are perpetrating.
As for the leaders, may they be damned to Hell for this. It is not worship when it costs the lives of others.
mortimer says
Gork says, ‘Unconscionable’ … but in the Muslims’ view, what is ‘unconscionable’ is to lack faith in the protection of Allah against the plague.
They are trusting the words of an illiterate 7th-century pirate … what could go wrong?

India Minorities Commission asks government to stop mentioning mosque epicenter of pandemic: “Islamophobia”
………………………
What idiots.
Frank Zarzar says
Islam
mortimer says
The Nizamuddin Markaz mosque is not just conducting a Covid-19-Jihad … it is a moronic STUPIDITY jihad as every Muslim doctor would unwillingly have to agree.
Note: every medical doctor studied epidemics and plagues in medical school so they would know what to do.
Sam says
This is secularism of India.. it’s actually a chocularism..
sidney penny says
Why is Zafarul Islam Khan and and Muslims who object to “mosque epicenter of pandemic” afraid of Facts.?
Ask yourself how else will you say it ?
Halaku says
These callous and willfully spread infections are the single highest contributers to India’s Covid count. But the whip from the Minorities commission seems to be working.
Delhi state govt is now describing the Markaz Mosque infections as ‘Under Special Operations’. According to their bulletin: 166 new cases were reported of which 128 are from ‘Under Special Operations’, taking the total number of COVID-19 positive cases in national capital to 1,069, of which ‘Under Special Operations’ has reached 712.
Tamil Nadu, a state in south India officially describes the cause of the infected Muslims who fanned out all over India from the same Delhi Markaz Mosque, as a mysterious ‘Single Source’.

sigh … this just proves that the “elites” (and i use that word sarcastically) in india are as nasty as the “elites” in amrikistan, canadastan, and EUrabia.
