The Kashmir Chamber of Commerce & Industry ( KCCI) strongly condemns the outrageous statement of Mahant Narsinghanand about Prophet Muhammad ( SAW). Mahant’s remarks have deeply hurt not only the  sentiments of Muslims but all those who are sensitive &  respectful to religious beliefs ,  religious heads , prophets and saints of different faiths.  The KCCI believes that  the statement is aimed at provoking sentiments ,spread hate and violence among communities ; and as such demands immediate action and accountability of Mahant who reportedly is a habitual hate manger with many cases registered against him. The Law enforcement agencies should ensure that such offenders are not allowed to indulge in any outrageous act having potential to vitiate the peace between the communities.
