New Delhi:A day after AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi said that offering namaz (prayers) at the place of worship now being built at Ayodhya is "haraam" (un-islamic), Union minority affairs minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Thursday slammed him for the statement and said there is no remedy for such "fatwebaaz" people.
"These people who have emerged as new-fatwebaaz, there is no remedy for such fatwebaaz. The Supreme Court has given its verdict and every people in the society obeyed the order," said Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi.
"Along with the acceptance of the Supreme Court order with full honour, the construction work has also begun at the Masjid-site with harmony. There is a habit of some people who talk in the air, so let them talk," he added.

Speaking at a large gathering in Karnataka's Bidar on Wednesday, Owaisi had said that praying in the mosque which is being built in Ayodhya or donating money for the the construction of the mosque is wrong, according to Islam.
Meanwhile, the process for starting the construction of a mosque in the Dhannipur village in Ayodhya began on Republic Day, with the unfurling of the tricolour and a tree plantation drive at Dhannipur.
On December 19 last year, the Indo-Islamic Cultural Foundation (IICF)- the trust created by Uttar Pradesh Sunni Central Waqf Board, had released the blueprint of the mosque and other structures designed by Professor SM Akhtar, the dean of the faculty of architecture at Jamia Milia University.
