FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Zafar Agha, member of the National Commission for Minority Educational Institutions (NCMEI) said in an interview with Press TV that Indian Muslims have long been unjustly profiled as terrorists and held in prolonged detention in the name of fighting terror.
“Historically speaking, the primary factor and one of the reasons for which Muslims have suffered has been the partition. It’s a tragic fact that those Muslims who stayed back in India, they were blamed for the partition in 1947. That created a sort of a mindset within the system that it started discriminating against the Muslims,” Agha stated.
The expert said Indian police forces also target Muslim youths who have been victims of widespread communal profiling, while heightening feelings of alienation, fear, insecurity and helplessness.
“In so many cases – when you are recording me this morning, I read a report that the nine Muslim boys who were arrested under terror charges were released by the court. The Ishrat Jahan case, everybody knows. So many innumerable – [Malaka] bomb blast, Mecca Masjid bomb blast, [Simjada] express bomb blast, it’s now on record and proved that these cases were primarily some so-called Hindu groups were involved. No Muslims were involved,” the rights advocate said.
Muslims in India continue to be economically, politically and socially oppressed, even though Islam is the second most practiced religion in the country and Muslims make up around 14 percent or about 160 million of the country’s population of 1.1 billion.
