MPs Urge Amit Shah on Mosque Loudspeakers and Voter Tribunals

MPs Urge Amit Shah on Mosque Loudspeakers and Voter Tribunals

Three leaders from a district in India wrote a letter to a very important government minister.

Their names are Yusuf Pathan, Khalilur Rahaman, and Abu Taher Khan.

The minister they wrote to is Amit Shah, who is in charge of home affairs.

The leaders said police are telling mosques to take down their loudspeakers.

Mosques use loudspeakers to call people to prayer.

The leaders said the noise rules should be followed fairly and gently, without hurting people's religious feelings.

They also said many people's names were removed from the voting list by mistake.

Those people are waiting for special courts called tribunals to fix the problem.

Without their voting cards, they face trouble getting passports, registering land, and receiving government help.

So the leaders asked for the cases to be finished quickly, for more tribunals, and for a system where people can complain.
