"The report was absolutely factual. Members of the Tablighi Jamaat are spreading the virus. They are attacking personnel from medical, police and media fraternity.

By resorting to such acts, they are simply exposing their organisation," he said."We are just around Shab-e-Barat. It demands those who practice Islam confess their sins. But they (Tablighi Jamaatis) are harassing health workers at the hospitals and threatening the media," said VHP's Jain.Meanwhile, Delhi BJP leader Aswini Upadhyay took to twitter to call it a matter of the pot calling the kettle black. He demanded that the National Investigative Agency (NIA), which is entrusted with the task of probing all terror related cases in India, should investigate the Tablighi Jamaat.has decided to stand by its legacy of fearless journalism and not take this criminal intimidation by the dubious Jamaat member lying down.
