According to a report in Times of India, the Bareilly-based All India Faizan-e-Madina Council, a socio-political group, has announced a bounty of Rs 1,00,786 on his head.
The national president of the outfit, Mooen Siddiqui Noori, on Monday said the cash award would be given only to a Muslim. An “Islamic" sword would also be presented to the killer.

“For teaching such people a lesson, I have decided that any Indian Muslim who gives me the head of Qasmi will be given a cash reward of Rs 1,00,786.“
“Sharia is not enforced in our country , but we can follow it to deal with traitors. I am aware that my announcement will land me in jail, but I'm not scared,“ Noori claimed.
