New Delhi: Muslim MPs across the
party line extend their support for the movement to grant the status
of Minority Institution to Jamia.
Today, to
reiterate the demand to declare Jamia Millia Islamia a Muslim
Minority institution and reserve 50% of its seats for Muslim
students, hundreds of students, teachers, old boys, community
leaders and members of the community staged a Dharna at Jantar
Mantar.
The organizers
also demanded the government that, it should not compel Jamia Millia
Islamia to OBC reservation.
Speaking on the
occasion, Syed Shahabuddin, former MP and diplomat criticised the
government's lackluster attitude on Jamia Millia's minority status.
He appealed to the community to carry forward the struggle until it
has been granted.
Rajya Sabha MP,
Mohd Adeeb, assured the organizers that he will fight the matter in
the parliament till Jamia is recognized as a Muslim Minority
Educational Institution.
Saeed Ahmad
Malihabadi, while expressing his solidarity with the movement said,
“I fully support the movement and promise that, I will constantly
raise the issue in the parliament”.
Kamal Akthter,
Rajya Sabha MP and former Jamia Student said, “I have been fighting
for this cause since my student days and will continue to it till my
last breath."
Asif Mohd. Khan,
MLA of Okhla constituency addressing the Dahrna said, “Okhala exists
all because of Jamia, so being the representative of the
constituency I assured that, people of Jamia Nagar is with the
movement and will continue to support it”.
Among the leaders
who expressed their solidarity includes Dr. SQR Ilyas, spokesperson,
Muslim Personal Law Board, Ameeduzaman Keranavi of Muslim Majlise
Mushawarat (Salim Group), Abdul Wahab Khilji of All India Milli
Council, Suhail K K, President, SIO of India, Ilyas Malik, Covener,
Jamia Minority Status Coordination Committee, Mujtaba Farooq,
