Islamic ‘scholar’ Kamran Malik defends sabotage attempts to derail trains, says it can be a ‘revengeful’ act against Yogi and Modi govt

Amidst rising cases of sabotage attempts to derail trains post the 2024 Lok Sabha election results, an Islamic ”scholar’ has now come out to give cover fire to miscreants indulging in such incidents which could have caused loss of civilian lives and public property. Notably, on Monday (9th September), Zee News media panellist Kamran Malik said that the sabotage attempts to derail trains could be “revengeful” acts against the Law and order handling of the Yogi Adityanath and Modi governments. 

The incident unfolded on Monday when the media channel was holding a debate on how a conspiracy to derail a train was averted in Kanpur. As per reports, a loco pilot averted a major train mishap by applying an emergency brake as some miscreants had placed a gas cylinder on the railway track where Kalindi Express was coming. 

Now during the debate, the Zee News anchor asked if there was a larger conspiracy in play to derail trains as miscreants had been caught placing boulders, gas cylinders, wooden logs, etc. 

Islamic ‘scholar’ Kamran Malik replied saying UP sarkar ka..Central government ka…Inka jo law and order ko control karne ka jo rawaiya hai wo is tarah ka hai ki log “revengeful” ho sakte hai. (Translation –The way the UP government and the Central government are controlling law and order is such that people could become ‘revengeful’.) 

When the anchor strongly objected to his words and asked him to take back his words, he brazenly defended it and replied, “I am saying the right thing.” 

White trying to explain why he argued that these could be ‘revengeful acts’, Malik invoked the government’s demolition drive and alleged custodial deaths. 

Nonetheless, the Zee News anchor slammed the Islamic scholar for giving cover fire to miscreants stating that it should be shameful to claim that if the bulldozer action would be taken, the miscreants would derail trains.

Incidentally, another media panellist and Islamic Scholar Ghulam Sarwar also tried to justify Malik’s remarks and defend the miscreants indulging in such acts. 

It is pertinent to note that Kamran Malik has often appeared on Zee News debates as a media panellist and as an Islamic ‘scholar’. An alumnus of Jamia Milia Islamia, Malik is a Supreme Court advocate. As per his Twitter timeline, he once made an open appeal to the public to vote for Congress. 

In one of such debate, Malik had opposed the public movement of the Hindu community seeking to reclaim the birthplace of revered deities, Lord Ram, Lord Shiva, and Lord Krishna in Ayodhya, Kashi, and Mathura. Opposing the Hindu community’s rights, Malik argued that there is no importance of the birthplace of a deity, adding that even the birthplace of Prophet Mohammad is not at all important.

Rising cases of sabotage attempts to derail trains, and the clarion call for radicalisation to derail trains by Pakistan-based Islamic terrorist

The Indian Railways and probing agencies are investigating multiple sabotage attempts to derail trains, the recent one being reported from Uttar Pradesh. A major train accident of Kalindi Express (14117) travelling on the Anwarganj-Kasganj Route in Kanpur was averted after the loco pilot applied an emergency brake. As per the reports, a deliberate attempt was made to derail the Kalindi Express by placing a gas cylinder on the route. 

A few days ago, on 31st August, a loco pilot averted a major train derailment and loss of life by promptly applying emergency brakes after the goods train he was operating collided with motorcycle scrap placed on the railway track in Rajasthan’s Baran district. Initial reports indicated that an unidentified person had placed bike scrap on the railway track near Chachauda village in the Chhabra area.

As reported earlier, the Indian authorities are currently reviewing train derailment incidents that transpired in the recent past after a video of a Pakistan-based Islamic terrorist, Farhatullah Ghori surfaced online. Notably, the Pakistani terrorist has posted a video on Telegram instigating his supporters to carry out large-scale train derailments in Delhi, Mumbai, and other Indian cities. 

Inciting the Jihadis to interrupt the railway lines and their transportation system, Ghori said that it would cause havoc in India. The terror recruiter on the intelligence establishment’s most wanted list stated, “The government is targeting our properties through ED and NIA, but we will remain steadfast and usurp power sooner or later.” In the three-minute video, Ghori asked the mujahideen to launch an “ishtishadi jung” or “fidayeen war” against Hindu leaders and police.

Notably, the Farhatullah Ghori who was designated a terrorist in 2020 has been involved in several terror attacks in India. Ghori was the mastermind of the 2001 Akshardham Temple attack which left 30 dead and 80 injured, the 2004 suicide attack on the Task Force office in Hyderabad, and the 2023 Rameshwaram Café blast case. Terrorist Farhatullah Ghori is originally from Hyderabad, India.
