Says, Hindus Must Stand Up, Muslims Must Stay Vigilant to Save India

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) President Mehbooba Mufti has strongly opposed the Waqf (Amendment) Bill tabled in Parliament, calling it a deliberate attempt to target the Muslim community.

She urged people across the country, especially from the Hindu community, to stand against what she described as an oppressive move by the BJP government.

Speaking to media persons in Srinagar, Mehbooba Mufti alleged that the bill is part of a larger conspiracy to marginalize Muslims in India. She accused the BJP government of creating an atmosphere of fear through mob lynchings, demolition of mosques, and attempts to take over graveyards. She asserted that the country should function according to its Constitution and not according to a divisive agenda.

Mufti warned that if such policies continue unchecked, “India could face internal divisions similar to those witnessed in Myanmar. She drew a parallel between the current situation and the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits, stating that just as the nation still feels ashamed of that episode, it should not allow history to repeat itself with Muslims.”
