The platform praised Bhagwat’s remarks, where he deemed the activities of searching for mosques beneath temples unnecessary, calling it a step toward fostering brotherhood and unity among India’s 1.42 billion people. The MRM urged political parties to refrain from exploiting these issues for political gain and to work towards maintaining societal peace.
Message to Sambhal and Bangladeshi Muslims
Addressing the Muslims of Sambhal and Bangladesh, the MRM urged them to openly reflect on Bhagwat’s thoughts. The platform emphasized that his views were not against any community but aimed at uniting society and strengthening India.
Expressing deep concern over atrocities against minorities in Bangladesh, the MRM appealed to the Bangladeshi government to ensure the rights of Hindus, Buddhists, and other minorities are protected.
In sensitive areas like Sambhal, the MRM called on Muslims to avoid falling into political conspiracies and to maintain communal harmony.
Support for the Waqf Board Amendment Bill
The meeting supported the central government’s proposed Waqf Board Amendment Bill, considering it essential for the development of Muslims and the country. The MRM stressed the need to prevent the misuse and embezzlement of Waqf properties and suggested their proper management to assist widows, orphans, and the needy.
Call for National Unity and Brotherhood
The MRM emphasized that India’s unity and harmony should be celebrated like festivals. The platform appealed to minorities to adopt a positive outlook and contribute to nation-building. It highlighted that by embracing the “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” policy, Indian Muslims can play an active role in the country’s development.
Discussion on Future Plans
The meeting concluded with a blueprint for the MRM’s upcoming programs and initiatives. The platform resolved to actively spread awareness on national and social issues across the country and strive to involve Indian Muslims in nation-building efforts.
