India Muslim Leaders Stress Establishing Common Nat’l Platform to Address Community Issues
Prominent Muslim leaders from across the country have resolved to establish a common national platform by bringing together representatives from all sections of the community to address the pressing issues confronting Indian Muslims.
The decision was taken at the conclusion of a National Symposium on “Dialogue on Waqf and Uniform Civil Code” under the theme “Defending Constitutional Rights”, held at Hotel Arco Palace in Jaipur.
The proposal for the common platform was put forward by Maulana Ubaidullah Khan Azmi and received the support of a majority of the delegates attending the SDPI-sponsored symposium. The proposed platform aims to coordinate collective efforts on issues such as the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), the Waqf issue, the Vande Mataram Bill, and other matters affecting the Muslim community.
Maulana Azmi also suggested the formation of a committee to recommend an appropriate name for the proposed platform. The committee will coordinate with Muslim organizations across the country on issues concerning the community.
It was further decided to constitute specialized sub-committees comprising experts to address specific areas such as Waqf, hate crimes, legal affairs, social media, education, and other important issues facing Indian Muslims.
The symposium brought together religious scholars, legal experts, parliamentarians, advocates, academicians, journalists, political leaders, and representatives of civil society from different parts of the country to deliberate on the constitutional, legal, and social dimensions of the Waqf issue and the proposed Uniform Civil Code.
