‘Babri Masjid demolition led to fascist upsurge in India’

Dammam: India Fraternity Forum, Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia, organized a seminar on “Re-establishment of constitutional values - our responsibility” as part of “Lest We Forget Babri Masjid” campaign on December 5, 2014 at Nahda Club Auditorium in Dammam-Khobar road.

Key speaker of the event, Fayaz N, Executive member of India Fraternity Forum, said: “Babri Masjid was not mere Masjid; it was a symbol of secularism. Fascist Forces not just demolished Babri Masjid, instead destroyed the constitutional values. We can understand that the fascist forces largely developed their roots in India after the Babri Masjid demolition. As a result of Babri Masjid demolition the fascist forces came to the power due to the inefficiency of secular forces”.

“Lest we forget, struggle functioning for re-building of Babri Masjid and thereby giving Justice to all Indians,” he added.

Meeraj Gulbarga, Executive member of India Fraternity Forum, Urdu chapter, said: “The people of India have failed to realize the depth of fascism. We should realize that secularism is the foundation of our nation and as citizens of India it is our responsibility to promote the constitutional Values”.

Chief guest of the event, Jalil Mukri, a poet, also spoke on the occasion.

The other guests on the dais were Sharief, President of Indian Social Forum, and Mohammed Ashraf, General Secretary of India Fraternity Forum. The program started with the recitation of Holy Quran by Brother Abdul Basheer. Irshad J., Secretary of India Fraternity Forum, prefaced the program and Mohammad Ashraf proposed vote of thanks. The event was compered by Brother Mansoor and the whole event was coordinated by Brother Imran Katipalla. India Fraternity Forum volunteers helped make the event successful.
