In yet another fatwa issued on Tuesday, Shahi Imam of Tipu Sultan Masjid, Syed Md Nurur Rahman Barkati said those Muslims who would support RSS and BJP would be ostracised from the community.

"As the Shahi Imam, I declare that those Muslims who support RSS or BJP would be outcasted, and if they try to put up a meeting or rally around this place I will beat them up myself," Barkati said at a press conference on Tuesday. He said there were many Muslims who had been bribed by the RSS and the BJP with huge money to spark riots in Bengal.

"The Sangh parivar is spreading Hindutva across the country. And just like there was jihad against the British tyranny in India, there will be a jihad against the RSS if they try to make India into a Hindu nation," Barkati said.

He was however quick to add that if BJP could distance themselves from the RSS he did not have any issue with Narendra Modi being the Prime Minister of India.
