The Muslim Mutehada Majlis-e-Amal or United Muslim Action Committee (UMAC), a representative body of religious organisations, will actively participate in the campaign proposed to be launched by Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen against Kiran Kumar Reddy Government across the State.
The decision was taken during the UMAC’s meeting held at MIM Headquarters here on Wednesday. Briefing the media about the decisions, Tameer-e-Millat president and JAC Convener Moulana Abdul Raheem Qureshi said that all religious leaders have welcomed the decision taken by MIM to severe its ties with the Congress party at the Centre and State. He said that the UMAC would actively participate in the anti-Kiran Kumar Reddy campaign after 10th of Moharram or November 25.
Raheem Qureshi alleged that the State Government and Police Department were trying to legalise the existence of a temple, which he said was constructed illegally. He also alleged that the police have imposed an undeclared curfew in several parts of the Old City which has been affecting the local economy. He said people were neither able to buy essentials nor able to visit hospitals.
The UMAC Convener alleged that Kiran Kumar Reddy has become a tool into the hands of RSS, Bajrang Dal and other elements of Sangh Parivar. He said that the Muslim religious organisations would not remain silent and would wage a legal battle against the actions of government, especially the police.
Besides MIM president Asaduddin Owaisi, several religious leaders including Jamia Nizamia chancellor Moulana Akbar Nizamuddin, Moulana Safi Ahmed Madani, Moulana Masood Hussain Mustaidi, Moulana Hussamuddin and others participated in the meeting, which was presided by Muslim Personal Board member Moulana Qubul Pasha Shattari.
Later, the UMAC members submitted a memorandum to City Police Commissioner Anurag Sharma and filed a petition before the State Human Rights Commission alleging imposition of undeclared curfew and harassment to the common people by the police.
