Muslim women send Rakhi to Narendra Modi and pray for his well-being

VARANASI: Gujarat chief minister NarendraModi will soon get a Rakhi sent by Muslim sisters from Varanasi. They themselves prepared the big-sized Rakhi for their Gujarati brother wishing him to lead the nation.

Marking the holy month of Ramzan, a group of local Muslim women prayed for the well-being of Modi at a brief programme held in Lallapura locality on Sunday afternoon. The burqa-clad women associated with Muslim Mahila Foundation (MMF) hailed Modi, describing him as a charismatic leader.

"We want to see Narendra Modi leading the nation as he is a responsible politician with a vision of development," said Nazneen Ansari, the president of MMF, which is a newly formed organization with a membership of about 1000 women. Ansari, a master's degree holder in conflict management from Banaras Hindu University, has been working for the cause of Hindu-Muslim unity and upliftment of Muslim women. She has also translated Hindu religious texts like Ramcharit Manas and Hanuman Chalisa into Urdu.

"We also want to see Modi contesting the 2014 parliamentary election from Varanasi," she said, adding that he (Modi) had shown the path of development in Gujarat, which should be replicated in the whole country. The MMF members believe that the country could get rid of all kind of evils under the leadership of Modi.
