Kuwaiti parliamentarians urge international organisations to stop ‘persecution of Muslims’ in India

Members of the Kuwait Parliament on Thursday urged the international, humanitarian, human rights and Islamic organizations to immediately work to stop the Indian authorities’ actions and restore security to Indian Muslims, Muslim Mirror reported.

Members of the Kuwaiti National Assembly have condemned the “atrocities committed by the Indian authorities and Hindu extremist groups against the Muslim community”.

Middle East Monitor reported that the Kuwaiti MPs issued a joint statement in this regard and expressed their deep anguish over the happenings in India.

They said “in the wake of the wave of violence and discrimination committed against Indian Muslims, including killing, displacement and burning, the lawmakers stand in solidarity with Muslims in India”.

They called on international, humanitarian, human rights and Islamic organizations to immediately work to “stop the Indian authorities’ actions and restore security to Indian Muslims”.

Nearly 20,000 members of the Muslim minority in the state of Assam have been uprooted from their homes after authorities evicted them from their homes under the pretext that they were built on state-owned land in Darang district.

After evicting impoverished families hailing from the Muslim community and demolishing their modest homes in the Darrang district of Assam, Police opened fire at those protesting the evictions, killing two people including a 12 year boy and injuring 10.
