Bareilly: A day after a two-member committee of it investigated the fatwa issued against Nida Khan, chairperson of UP Minorities Commission said that it will submit a report to the state government, along with their recommendations on Tuesday for further action. He said that the commission will not take any direct action in the matter.Tanveer Haider Usmani, chairperson, UP Minorities Commission said, “The two-member committee which visited Bareilly to probe the matter is compiling a report. I have also sought a report from Bareilly district magistrate, which is yet to come. When I receive both the reports on Monday, we will prepare a third report along with our recommendations. This report will be submitted to the state government so it can take action in the matter.’’Meanwhile, Khan said, “I will lodge a complaint with police regarding the fatwa on Saturday. The fatwa was issued to scare women like me so they stop fighting for their rights. I will contest it as it is a violation of my rights.’’ Asked about the conclusion the committee had drawn after talking to all parties, Usmani said, “I can comment only when our report is prepared. However, the Indian law and constitution, not any fatwa, is followed in the country.’’The fatwa issued against Nida Khan, a triple talaq victim and anti-triple talaq crusader, had called for her social boycott by members of her community. Rumana Siddiqui, one of the committee members that probed the fatwa, had earlier said, “Nobody has the right to dismiss anyone from Islam. Any person who reads a kalima with devotion can embrace Islam. In India, we follow the Indian law and Constitution. If they want to run Sharia courts, they shouldn’t only talk about property disputes and talaq, but about other crimes, such as rape and murder. The fatwa issued against Nida Khan is illegal according to the Indian law.”
