Ramban: The Ramban district administration, condemning alleged instances of blasphemy against Prophet Mohammed (PBUH), stated on Wednesday that the police have filed cases against several persons for making “derogatory posts” on social media.
Baseer-Ul-Haq Chaudhary, the Deputy Commissioner of Ramban, emphasised the administration’s strong stance against such “provocative behavior” and assured swift actions against the persons involved.
In a post on X, the DC of Ramban asserted the commitment to ensuring that those responsible face appropriate consequences, highlighting zero tolerance for actions that provoke. Chaudhary urged the public to prioritise communal harmony and demonstrate respect for all sentiments.
