Seven top Muslim religious organizations have asked the central government not to extend the visa of controversial Bangladeshi writer, Taslima Nasreen, and have decided to meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh seeking strict action against her for hurting the religious sentiments of Indians.
This is for the first time that Muslim organizations have spelt out their stand since the controversy erupted in November when protests in Kolkata were organized by groups close to the Left Front government in West Bengal.
In a meeting on Tuesday, attended by leaders of the seven organisations, including Jamaat-e-Islami Hind and Jamiat-e-Ulama Hind, the Muslim leaders said Taslima had no right to stay in India.
