Buthidaung- Buddhist monks in Gudam Para has been disrupting Muslim calls to prayer for the last few days by switching on the loudspeaker from his temple.
Our correspondent in the area says whenever the Muslims are praying in congregation, the monks switch on the loudspeaker. There is no other noise anytime else from the temple.
Buddhist religious laws don’t have any particular times for such practices. The disruption is only practiced for the inconvenience of the Muslims.
Locals allege the monks are trying to pick up a quarrel with the Muslim community and create the stage for a riot. However, they are being patient and have asked the young men in the area not to respond to the provocation of the monks.
