The three-member inquiry committee of Darul Uloom Deoband has started its probe into the allegations against incumbent VC Ghulam Mohammad Vastanvi.
The committee has started its probe on Wednesday and it will be completed within a month,Maulana Mufti Manzur Kanpuri,one of the committee member,told reporters here.
60-year-old Vastanvi,who hails from Gujarat and has an MBA degree,was elected VC on January 10. The moderate Maulana,who has a Facebook page in his name,had triggered a controversy soon after his appointment with his remarks praising Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi’s rule and his development policy.
He had reportedly said that Muslims should forget the communal riots of 2002 and move on and that the community did not face discrimination in Gujarat.
The report of the committee will later be submitted to Majlis-e-Shura or the governing council of Darul Uloom,Kanpuri said.
The governing council constituted a three-member committee,comprising of Mufti Mazoor Ahmad from Kanpur,Mufti Mohammad Ismail from Malegaon and Maulana Mohammad Ibrahim from Chennai,to look into the allegations against Vastanvi and all other issues concerning both inside and and outside the seminary.
