The All Ceylon Jamiyyathul Ulama (ACJU) had condemned the recent attacks on Buddhist monks in Tamil Nadu, yesterday. The ACJU in statement posted on their website requested the Indian Central Government to take proper actions to protect the clergy visiting India. 

Earlier civil organisations and various groups in Sri Lanka had protested condemning the attacks on the recent attacks on two Buddhist monks in Tamil Nadu urging the Indian government to take stern action against the perpetrators.

The ACJU also pointed out that all religions should encourage respecting other religions.

It stated that it was Indian government’s responsibility to protect people visiting India and had requested the government to take swift action against the offenders  and to counter the damage caused. (H.F& L.P)

    Just because there are 15.9% of the total population is Muslims Does not mean that Muslims have any Say in Indian Politics.
    ACJU condem attacks on cleargy men only. What about innocent civilians in Bangladesh ?

    authorities are taking required action. What you want just because vistims are muslims do they need to punish severly than current law allowed ?

    LTTE sympathizers are at large even now, these comments too identifies some of them.
    ACJU has rightly condemned the attacks on the Monks.

    we are SriLankan

    ACJU is not giving advice, they are condemning an attack against Sri Lankans. Your blatant support for India and the LTTE is obvious. Go and live in bloody India and create a 'Independent Tamil State' there (in Tamil Nadu). Then see how they like it.

    thank ACJU for the lesson of human value.

    Amir Thursday, 21 March 2013 10:52 AM

    because they are SRI LANKANS too

    never too late

    I think one must do basic research before commenting on certain facts, current muslim population in India is 177 million as per 2010 stats which is around 15.9% of the total population (There are also over 65 million tamils) however I believe ACJU issued the statement due to the fact that the persons affect are clergy men.

    I request Sri Lankan to stop harassing muslims in Sri Lanka. Scattered incidents are cropping up seems no action is taken by authorities.

    Good work by ACJU

    Silmiya Pura Thursday, 21 March 2013 07:19 AM

    Thank you ACJU..

    LK Thursday, 21 March 2013 08:13 AM

    do u expect ACJU to celebrate the attack on monks ?

    idroos2002 Thursday, 21 March 2013 08:11 AM

    To Hello world Condeming violence against any clergy is the right of any individual and since ACJU is an incorporated state muslim theological and body i think you should evaluate u should question carefully . And the same time u can question them on the reverse why didnt ACJU condemn Do not act like a chamberlian

    Do Muslims have a say in Indian Politics?

    rarviraj Thursday, 21 March 2013 08:05 AM

    just as much as it is the responsibility of the Indian govt. it is also the same Indian govt.'s job to take necessary action as per the Indian laws and India certainly does not need the advice of ACJU in this matter

    Why don't you ACJU give your unsolicited advice to your brethren Taliban and Al-Quida to just allow young girls to attend school and to your Mullahs in Kashmir to allow kids to listen to music

    shafeek Thursday, 21 March 2013 07:54 AM

    really feel sorry on that monk.

    HelloWorld Thursday, 21 March 2013 07:54 AM

    why should ACJU condemn the attack at all?

    Seni Thursday, 21 March 2013 07:34 AM

    I only hope this condemnation will be taken positively by concerned parties.

    Yuri Thursday, 21 March 2013 07:33 AM

    this is called Battering.... in TN they just teased imagin hand of Taliban ?

    Shan Thursday, 21 March 2013 07:33 AM

    why too late ????
