Terrorism has no place in civil society, says Shahi Imam of Jama Masjid

The Shahi Imam of Jama Masjid, Syed Ahmed Bukhari, on Thursday, November 13, condemned the Red Fort blast as an “abominable terror attack” and asserted that “terrorism has no ground” in civil society.

He also hoped that the government would leave no stone unturned in bringing the perpetrators to justice.

With a firm national resolve, “we shall be able to unitedly fight



the menace of terrorism and succeed in defeating it,” the Shahi Imam said in a statement issued by the Jama Masjid.

A high-intensity blast near Delhi’s Red Fort on Monday evening claimed 13 lives.

Condemning the “terror attack” at the heart of the national capital in the strongest terms, Bukhari said “terrorism has no ground, and could not have any, in the civil society.”
