The radical Muslims of Kolkata carried placards with a picture of French President Emmanuel Macron Macron with a footprint over his face.

Apart from Kolkata, Muslims in various other cities, namely Bhopal, Mumbai, Hyderabad and Aligarh in Uttar Pradesh, have joined their religious counterparts worldwide, to protest against France for its anti-Islamic terror stance. While in Bhopal, Congress MLA organised a protest of thousands of Muslims, Muslims in Bhindi Bazaar of Mumbai posted images of French President on the streets of the city, walked and drove on these as a mark of protest against France.

The deplorable action by the Muslims in Mumbai was lauded by the radical Islamic organisation Raza Academy. Maulana Abbas Rizvi had welcomed the actions of garlanding Macron’s posters with shoes as a mark of protest against French President. “The disrespect shown by Emmanuel Macron is condemnable and he deserves strict punishment,” Maulana Abbas Rizvi had said.
