A separatist leader has asked Muslims in Jammu and Kashmir to marry more than once and have as many children as possible to preserve the Muslim-majority character of the State.
“We appeal to well-to-do Muslims to marry more than once and have as many children as possible. The Koranic tenet of justice between wives is only in providing equal provision and not inclination of the heart,” Mohammad Qasim, who is serving life term for murder, said in a statement emailed by his party Muslim-Deenimahaz, on Saturday.
Qasim, husband of Dukhtaran-e-Millat chief Asiya Andrabi, said, “The settlement of refugees in J&K is a ploy to change the Muslim-majority status of the State.”
