Muslims to campaign against TRS, TDP-BJP combine
Hyderabad, April 8 (INN): Accusing TRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao of acting as an agent of Sangh Parivar, Telangana Muslim Joint Action Committee and Tahreek Muslim Shabban president Mohammad Mushtaq Mallik announced that Muslim organisations of Telangana region would campaign against the TRS candidates in the ensuing elections.
In a media statement here, Mushtaq Mallik alleged that KCR held some secret meetings with the RSS leaders and conspired to stop the political growth of Muslim community, which constitutes 12.40 per cent of the total population in Telangana.
He said that the Sangh Parivar was against the political empowerment of Muslims in the region and therefore, used KCR and also ensured TDP-BJP alliance to damage the community's political interests.
Mushtaq Mallik said that the representatives of all leading Muslim organisations would meet on April 12 at Shah Function Hall, Lakdi-ka-Pul to decide their future strategy to stop the rise of communal forces in Telangana.
He said that the Muslims community has played an active and major role in achieving statehood for the region. Therefore, the Telangana Muslims will ensure that their new State not only remains free from communal forces, but also achieves fast pace development.
"The Muslim organisations will support the parties and candidates who can guarantee a secular and developed State where justice will be done with all communities. The Telangana State should undo the injustices done with a majority of people in the united Andhra Pradesh," he said.
Mushtaq Mallik accused KCR of betraying the people by going back on the promises that he has been making for the last 14 years during the statehood movement. He alleged that Dalits and Muslims have been cheated by the TRS.
He also accused the TDP of trying to polarise the elections in Telangana by entering into an alliance with the BJP. "The Dalits and Muslims not only condemn this unholy alliance, but would ensure that it faces a humiliating defeat in the ensuing elections," he said.
