At Quresh Jamaat Khana, a community centre run by the butcher community, Bharati engaged with all the stakeholders and made an appeal to them to obey the law, especially during festivities.
People should celebrate these festivals by harbouring mutual respect for each other and each other’s faith.

While speaking to The Voice of Malegaon Bharati said, “We make an earnest appeal to the people in Malegaon to not fall prey to any rumours and also stay miles away from rumour mongering as these are highly sensitive times. People should also avoid an uninhibited use of social media and stay away from posting objectionable status updates on WhatsApp as such offences attract serious charges under relevant law.”
