Hyderabad, September 15 (Najaf Ali Shoukat – PMI) Safeguarding the integrity and unity of India is the foremost responsibility of every patriotic citizen. At a time when certain fundamentalist and political elements attempt to weaken national solidarity, the Muslim Rashtriya Manch (MRM) has been playing a significant role in promoting communal harmony. For the past 24 years, this organization has worked to bring Hindus and Muslims closer together—an effort acknowledged by several Muslim intellectuals across states.
About the Organization
Founded in 2002, the Muslim Rashtriya Manch is a socio-intellectual platform aimed at connecting Indian Muslims with the national mainstream, fostering interfaith harmony, and serving in the fields of education and social welfare. Under the leadership of Mr. Ilyas Ahmed in South India, particularly in Telangana and Hyderabad, the organization has strengthened its roots.
National Unity and Harmony
The MRM has made communal harmony the central focus of its activities. Programs such as national flag hoisting ceremonies, interfaith dialogues, and messages of unity have helped reduce communal tensions and encouraged mutual understanding.
Educational Initiatives
Recognizing education as the foundation of progress, the Manch has conducted awareness campaigns, organized educational camps, and encouraged scholarships for Muslim youth. These efforts have played a role in addressing educational backwardness within the community.
Social and Relief Work
In times of natural disasters and national emergencies, the MRM has extended relief to victims by providing food, clothing, and medicines—thus reinforcing the spirit of service to humanity.
Empowering Women and Youth
Special programs have been organized to empower women socially and educationally, while youth have been encouraged to gain skills and employment opportunities, ensuring their constructive participation in nation-building.
Stand Against Terrorism and Extremism
The Muslim Rashtriya Manch has consistently opposed terrorism, extremism, and anti-national activities. By spreading the message of peace, tolerance, and patriotism, the platform has sought to highlight the identity of Indian Muslims as peace-loving and patriotic citizens.
Critical Perspective
From an analytical standpoint, the MRM’s activities extend beyond religious or political interests, aligning instead with broader goals of national integration and social cohesion. Although some critics question its ideological associations, it is widely acknowledged that the Manch has opened new avenues for dialogue and service between Muslims and non-Muslims.
In India’s diverse society, the Muslim Rashtriya Manch has made notable contributions to national unity, educational progress, and social service. Its initiatives demonstrate that true national integration is nurtured not by political slogans alone, but by grassroots service and public participation. These efforts continue under the guidance of Peace Ambassador Dr. Indresh Kumar, who is regarded as a mentor and role model for the nation’s youth.
Muslim Rashtriya Manch Supports Abrogation of Article 370 for Kashmir’s Integration
The Muslim Rashtriya Manch (MRM), under the patronage of Peace Ambassador Dr. Indresh Kumar, has consistently emphasized national integrity and unity as its core mission. On the issue of Jammu & Kashmir, the organization openly supported the abrogation of Article 370, calling it a necessary step for peace, progress, and integration.
According to the MRM, Article 370 kept the people of Kashmir isolated from the national mainstream for decades, depriving youth of equal opportunities in education, employment, and development. The provision, the Manch argued, also gave space for separatist elements and weakened communal harmony.
Through public meetings, seminars, and dialogues across the country, the Manch highlighted that Kashmir is an integral part of India and deserves the same rights, opportunities, and development as every other region.
The organization further maintained that the removal of Article 370 would not only pave the way for socio-economic growth in Kashmir but also help curb terrorism and separatism, ensuring long-term stability in the region.
The MRM’s stance reflects its larger vision: that national integration and collective development are the true foundations of a strong and united India.(pressmediaofindia.com)
