In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Muttahida Majlis-e-Ulema (MMU) Jammu and Kashmir headed by incarcerated Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has strongly condemned the repeated as-saults on Muslim women in India.
The MMU comprising leaders of all religious, educational and social associations and institutions of IIOJK in a statement issued in Srinagar said whether it is online derogatory campaign in the name of “Sulli and Bulli deals” against Muslim women or an attempt to keep them away from edu-cation by disallowing them to wear hijab, Muslim women in India are repeatedly targeted and intimi-dated.
“This seems to be a deliberate attempt by the Hindutva mindset to spread sectarian poison in In-dia, with the minorities especially Muslims being at the receiving end. This sectarianism is fueled by prejudice and hatred,” the MMU added.
The statement urged the authorities to allow Muslim girls to pursue their education in schools and colleges without hindrance.
The MMU said that the Muslims of Jammu and Kashmir stand by the brave girls of Karnataka who are boldly striving for their fundamental right to education and right to practice religion.
