"We have zero opposite a promotion o! f Islam though a speaker has no right to make statements which slur alternative faiths.
"Airing this programme is unresponsive upon a part of Minnal FM as good as airing it now, when a Hindu festival of Deepavali is around a corner, is intensely insensitive," he said.

"So when such remarks are made about Hinduism, you as good feel slighted," he told FMT.
The MIC communication arch pronounced he had called up a government of Minnal FM this morning as good as was informed which a programme fell under a reach of a Islamic Development Department (Jakim), which came under a Prime Minister's Department.
"With people like this in his bureau to criticise his efforts, a budding apportion does not need to be concerned about a damage being inflicted by a opposition," he said.
"There has been a huge outcry opposite [PKR vice-president] Nurul Izzah Anwar over her remarks which purportedly promote apostasy. But aren't these programmes you do a same?" he added.
