New Delhi, Oct 4: The valedictory programme of Popular Front of India's national campaign “Stop Politics of Hate” was held on Monday at Talkatora stadium, here. Delivering the presidential address, KM Shareef, chairman, PIF, highlighted the current situation of the country.
“The road to power for the BJP was made easy by the disunity of the secular parties. Since the BJP has come to power it has openly unleashed its true agenda of hate. The silence of the government towards attacks on Muslims, minorities and Dalits confirms their hidden agenda,”, Mr Shareef said.
“PFI has always been in the forefront of struggle against fascism and we will continue this struggle. Our struggle against politics of hate will be intensified after the support we have received in this campaign,” he said.
BG Kolse Patil, former Justice of Mumbai High Court, stressed the need of unity among all sections to fight against the communalism of RSS. He urged the peace loving citizen's belongings to all communities not to be a victim of the propaganda campaign by RSS.
Senior Congress Leader Mani Shankar Aiyar said that history is being distorted to suit communal agenda “a wrong image of Muslims is being painted by saffronization of history. The message of equality presented by Islam was wholeheartedly accepted by the people of India in the 8th century but a wrong image of early Muslims is being propagated by the communal forces.”
Presenting the keynote address Anis Ahmed, NEC member of PFI, said: “This campaign is a continuation of activities carried out since past 2 decades. We are presenting before the country the real threats before the country. The ideology of Hindutva which is being taught in every Shaka of RSS is the reason behind such atrocities in the country. The government should adopt the secular values of our country and treat all citizens as equal”.
He also called for the unity of all Muslim, minorities, Dalits, tribals and progressive groups to fight communalism and fascism.
In his welcome address, Mohammed Ali Jinnah, general Secretary of PFI, presented the impact of the campaign throughout the country.
The other speakers present in the programme were Ravi Nair, President SAHRDC, Kamal Farooqui, Ex- Chairman, Delhi Minority Commission, Syed Sarwar Chisti, Gaddi Nasheen Ajmer Dargah, Srinivas Raghavan, President Lok Raj Sangathan party, Waman Misram, President BAMSEF, Navaid Haamid, President Majlis-e- Mushawarat, Yasmin Farooqui, President WIM, Parvez Miyan, President Milli Council Delhi State. The demand charter was presented by Abdul Wahid, Secretary, Popular Front of India. Ahmed Parvez, Delhi State President, PFI, proposed vote of thanks.
