A section of Muslims in Bihar are up in arms
against the more affluent and powerful section of Muslims for denying
them entry into graveyards on the grounds of lower caste status.

In
the last one-year, a few cases have surfaced where the backward or
lower caste Muslims faced trouble over easy entry for burial in
graveyards and in two or three cases they were not allowed to bury.
They finally resorted to burying the body outside the graveyard.

The
Pasmanda Muslim Mahaz and All India United Muslim Morcha, both based in
Bihar and being the socio-political front of backward Muslims, have
threatened to launch a movement against the powerful upper caste Muslim
elite on this issue.
