New Delhi [India], December 12 : The Muslim Rashtriya Manch in a crucial meeting here in the national capital on Tuesday deliberated on comprehensive development in Jammu and Kashmir, connecting it with the mainstream.
The RSS-backed Muslim body in a release said that it was decided that instead of perpetuating the destructive politics pursued by opposition parties for years, everyone should contribute positively to the prosperity and development of Jammu and Kashmir.
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh national executive member and patron of the Muslim Rashtriya Manch, Indresh Kumar on Tuesday stated that the politics dividing India faced defeat, and the politics emphasizing unity and integrity emerged victorious.
The National Media Coordinator of the Manch, Shahid Sayeed, reported that Indresh Kumar emphasized the irreversible end of Article 370, which had acted as a wall fostering separatism, conspiracy, terrorism, violence, and hatred. He highlighted the importance of an inquiry committee to investigate the large number of deaths and displacements that occurred from 1980 till now, ensuring justice for the victims.
Indresh Kumar expressed the shared desire for India, whether it be the RSS, BJP, or the Muslim Rashtriya Manch, always to remain undivided. He stressed the establishment of constitutional values for the defense of unity. Indresh Kumar asserted that the nation has always been united as one, emphasizing the significant step taken by the government with determination.

He credited the government for making decisions based on understanding and determination, unlike the potentially enslaving actions of Nehru's Congress.
