“Muslim youth should be patient on the action taken on PFI. Appeal of Muslim organizations Tanzeem Ulema-e-Islam, Kul Hind Markazi Imam Council and MSO have said in their statement that if this action has been taken for compliance of law and prevention of terrorism, then everyone should be patient on it,” tweeted Muslim Students’ Organization (MSO) of India.
