Mangalore, November 6: The city police have registered a case against President of the Ajmer Sharif Dargah Syed Sarwar Chishti for allegedly making provocative and inflammatory speech here last week.

The contents of Ajmer Dargah chief's speech were offensive and tended to promote enmity, hatred and ill-will between the two communities, he said.
Addressing thousands of people at a programme organised by Popular Front of India as part of its nationwide campaign 'Why Popular Front?', Chishti went on to claim that if Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi became Prime Minister of India, all Muslims of India would become terrorists.
