The first great achievement of the Tablighi Jamaat was the cold-blooded murder of Swami Shraddhananda. The swami had been lionized by Muslims when he supported the Khilafat agitation during the first Non-Cooperation movement . “But as he was closely associated with the šuddhi movement… a section of Muslims cherished bitter hatred against him.
