Sambhal MP Ziaur Rahman Barq has reacted to SDM Vandana Mishra's statement on namaz after the meeting of Shanti Samiti (Peace Committee) regarding the preparations for Eid.
He said, "There is no justification to stop offering namaz on the roof. The roof is not a government place. It is a person's special place. If he will not pray even at his home, then where will he go to pray."
Barq further said that imposing such restrictions is to snatch away the right to religious freedom.
After the meeting of the Peace Committee, Sambhal SDM Vandana Mishra had said that people have been asked to maintain peace on Eid, Navratri and Ram Navami.
He said, "Namaz will not be allowed on the streets and neither will the use of loudspeakers be allowed. Permission has been sought to offer namaz on rooftops. We will look into it and if there is a possibility of any untoward incident, then this too will not be allowed."
