More Muslims ready to embrace Hinduism: Jitendra Tyagi erstwhile Wasim Rizvi

Thursday, 09 December 2021 | PNS | Lucknow

Waseem Rizvi aka Jitendra Narayan Singh Tyagi, after converting to Hinduism said that a large number of Muslims were ready to embrace the Sanatan Dharma but were scared of retribution by the Islamic radical elements.

Demanding protection to life and property of Muslims desiring to embrace Hinduism, Jitendra Narayan Singh Tyagi said, “I am getting messages and phone calls from thousands of people from the entire country and they all are Muslims who want to convert to the Sanatan Dharma.”

He said these Muslims would embrace Sanatan Dharma as soon as they were assured of safety of their life and property by the government.

“I am happy where I am and there is no question of returning back to Islam. All those who are opposed to my conversion to Sanatan Dharma should explain why they remained silent when announcement was made by Shia clerics about my expulsion from Islam,” said the former chairman of UP Shia Central Waqf Board.

Tyagi is facing constant threat to his life from Islamic radical elements. He is resident of a Muslim-dominated old city area of Kashmiri Mohalla and is under round the clock protection of police.

“Conversion to Sanatan Dharma is my personal decision and I will welcome all the members of my family who want to convert to Sanatan Dharma. I will not talk to my mother on this issue but I will seek her blessings and tell her that I have embraced Sanatan Dharma and it is my last wish that after death my body be cremated as per the Sanatan rituals,” Tyagi said.

Defending his decision to embrace Sanatan Dharma, Tyagi said, “My objective is to attack Islamic radical organisations like ISIS and the jihadi mindset.”
