Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was greeted by loud chants of Bharat Mata Ki Jai by a large Muslim audience, said that Sufism is the celebration of diversity. He was attending the four-day-long World Sufi Forum in New Delhi on Thursday.
The event is being perceived as an attempt to present Sufism as an effective antidote to terrorism masked as religious ideology. In his speech, PM Modi said, “Sufism is the celebration of diversity and pluralism. Sufism is the voice of peace, co-existence, compassion, equality; a call to universal brotherhood.”
