The apex body of Indian Muslim organisations, All India Muslim Majlis-e Mushawarat (AIMMM), condemned the wave of violence the country has been facing since the advent of the Modi government at the Centre. National President of the AIMMM, Dr. Zafarul-Islam Khan said in a press statement on 22 October that “the latest murder of two Dalit kids and severely injuring their parents in BJP-ruled Haryana by so-called upper caste goons only reinforces our conviction that the Modi government is unable and unwilling to stop the continuous violence by people belonging to ultra Hindutva outfits.
“Riots, lynching, attacks on churches, mosques and houses of Muslims, Dalits, Adivasis and Christians are a norm now due to the silent support enjoyed by these hate-mongers of the Sangh Parivar who include some members of the Union cabinet and the ruling party legislators. They have created an atmosphere where violence has become acceptable. Soft verbal condemnations to befool world public opinion and payment of ex-gratia amounts are meaningless if the culprits and criminals are not brought to justice.”
Dr. Khan further said, Modi government must either govern according to the Constitution and laws of the land or pack its bags.
