In a media statement today, Xavier said allowing Dr Zakir to stay in the country after the latter questioned the local Indian community’s loyalty to the prime minister would cause communal friction. “Having raised the matter with my fellow colleagues in the Cabinet, this morning, I along with others have expressed our stance that action against him must be taken and that Dr Naik should not be allowed to remain in the country. The prime minister has noted the concerns that were raised and will consider our position in his decision-making process.
