\"\"New Delhi: Indian Muslims for Civil Rights (IMCR) announced a 51-member monitoring committee to pursue constitutional, legal and political remedies for issues affecting the rights of Indian Muslims.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, the committee comprises politicians, former lawmakers, administrators, former judges, religious scholars, activists and civil society representatives from across India. The move follows a resolution adopted at the National Convention of Muslim leaders and intellectuals in New Delhi on July 24.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the announcement, former Indian Minister Salman Khurshid said the initiative was not only about Muslim demands but about reminding every Indian citizen of their constitutional rights relating to culture, language and religion. \u201cThe security and dignity of one community are closely connected with the security and dignity of every other citizen,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u2018Our habit is to demolish\u2019: Hindutva leader threatens Indian Muslims with bulldozers<\/a><\/p>\n

Jamaat-e-Islami Hind President Syed Sadatullah Husaini described the panel as the beginning of a larger movement to address constitutional rights.<\/p>\n

APCR Secretary Nadeem Khan said the panel would focus on criminal violence and hate crimes, evictions and bulldozer demolitions, and harassment through laws including the Waqf Act and Uniform Civil Code measures. He cited 10,620 punitive demolition cases between 2016 and 2024, with Muslims constituting the majority of victims.<\/p>\n

AIMPLB spokesperson Dr S Q R Ilyas said the committee would also seek solidarity with Dalits, Adivasis, OBCs and other marginalised communities facing injustice.<\/p>\n

Former MP Mohammad Adeeb said a letter signed by around 100 eminent Muslims had been sent to the President of India, and that another larger meeting of 1,000 people would be organised in October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
