New Delhi [India], March 26 (ANI): BJP MLA from Shakur Basti, Karnail Singh, on Wednesday wrote to the Delhi Police Commissioner, requesting action to 'prevent the inconvenience caused by the offering of Namaz in public places.'
In his letter, Singh pointed out that prayers on roads were causing traffic congestion and disturbing residents.
'I would like to draw your attention to an important issue. The practice of offering prayers on roads and public places in our city is obstructing traffic and causing inconvenience to the general public. On several occasions, this has also affected ambulances, school buses, and other essential services,' he wrote.
While acknowledging religious freedom, Singh stressed the need to maintain public order.
'While we all have the right to practice our respective religions, it is equally important to ensure that public order and traffic are not disrupted,' the letter stated.
Singh urged the police to restrict religious activities to designated areas, such as mosques or private spaces and requested prompt action from the administration.
'Therefore, I request that the administration take necessary steps in this regard and ensure that religious activities are conducted only in designated places and private premises. I hope you will take this matter seriously and take appropriate action,' he added.
