Reformers Front of India (RFI) has appealed to the government to activate municipalities throughout the State for three days for complete cleaning process from garbage yards and also provide a complaint cell.
Speaking to mediapersons here on Thursday, RFI convener of Telangana Md Shahnawaz Khan, RFI Hyderabad convener Mirza Sajid Baig said Bakrid is the most important festival of Muslims all over the world and it aims discipline among self and for the community. But unfortunately it has been seen that no one prefers cleanliness on this particular day. “Unfortunately, our brothers always throw the wastages on the streets and on the road side. By this, bad smell emanates and the movement on the roads becomes difficult. Muslims by this act show bad example among others. Islam emphasises that Muslims should maintain cleanliness in daily routine life as Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) said Cleanliness is half of the faith (Imaan)”.
The RFI leader said the waste material is not collected by the municipal sanitary workers for three days posing danger to the health of the citizens. ”We believe the Muslims in India are the major minority and on the occasion of Ramzan, the government i.e. Dairy Development Corporation supplies milk to the people for the Eid. Similarly, the government should supply animals through the Animal Husbandry Department to save the common Muslims from black marketers, seasonal traders and brokers.
They also pointed out that on the occasion of the Eid, people from villages migrate to the city and camp on roads and burn heads and legs of goats causing atmospheric pollution and make it difficult to the passersby to move on road. “Therefore, we demand that the government involve local police station to stop this nuisance”, they added.
