'Shahi Imam' has Ahmad Bukhari has embarrassed many of us with his conduct. Even if someone from the journalists had made a comment from behind, such verbal abuse coming out of Bukhari is unacceptable of a sane person let alone an Imam and that too at PM's office in front of the national media.
Just when it seemed that Bukhari was turning into a responsible person and the image of the Shahi Imam as created by his father who did tremendous damage to Muslims through his 'fatwas' at the time of elections, Bukhari has shown his true character.
I have seen journalists ask much tougher and harsh questions and people replying without getting angry. Journalist speaks for the people and thus makes the public figure, politicans uncomfortable. But Bukhari and his supporters neither kept silent or just ignore the question, they instead prompted me to hang my head in shame.
Time to stop calling him Shahi Imam. There is no such post and nothing regal about him. Imams in all mosques are equal and respectable because they lead prayers and that's all.
And now Bukhari says that he will float a political party. What a joke! Does he have any idea of his influence. Parties may think that he has an influence. Even in the Jama Masjid area let alone Delhi, he does not have a following. I am sure except his household no body is going to vote for his candidates. If such people will keep shut, they will do lot good for Muslims in India.
