Thiruvananthapuram : Some people are spreading wrong notion on some parts of speech delivered recently without regard to the good intend, said Minister Saji Cherian. The false propaganda stems form misinformation that I did not hear Azan(mosque call for prayer) anywhere during trip in Saudi Arabia, the Minister added.
During visit to Saudi, there took place a small chat with fellow traveler on the moderate approach and regards observed there toward religious ceremonies and lectures and the kind of respect accorded to people of other religions and foreigners. There I witnessed a fine example of religious harmony, the minister said.
In that talk I also said that Malayalis who left for work to Gulf played a crucial role in changing the landscape of Kerala. That said, my comment on not hearing Azan was owing to wrong information given to me. The discerning brothers must take this into account and erase any misunderstanding there might be, the minister said.
