“This Is A Fight To Save The Constitution”

I remember what Sardar Hukum Singh once said, “Till the time Muslims and Sikhs are a part of this country, nobody can make it a Hindu Rashtra.” says Daya Singh from Gurdwara Sri Guru Singh Sabha as he comes out in support of members from the Muslim community in Gurugram as concerned citizens of Gurugram and activists organise a Press Conference at the Constitution Club of India today to discuss the increasing obstructions posed to Muslims offering Namaz in Gurgaon for the past few weeks.

In May, 2018 an umbrella body of 22 far-right wing groups ‘Sanyukt Hindu Sangharsh Samiti’ stopped the Muslim Community from reading Juma Namaz on Friday afternoon in more than 10 open areas of Gurgaon. They hurled abuses and hurt religious sentiments of Muslims by making inflammatory statements. Over the last 3 months, such attacks have intensified even more, leaving the Muslim community feeling helpless.
