In the statement, Muslim intellectuals have said that the controversial statements of Maulana Arshad Madani and Mahmood Madani and the changing political situation are going to spread communal tension.

Maulana Mahmood Madani had recently said in Bhopal that decisions against Muslims are coming in the courts including the Supreme Court. For this reason it cannot be called the Supreme Court. He had said that Muslims are being hurt by calling them love jihad, land jihad and spit jihad. Those responsible in the government and media use these words without any shame. Mahmood Madani had also said that Muslims are wrongly accused. He had also said that whenever there is oppression, there will be jihad.
