آل انڈیا مسلم مجلس مشاورت کے قومی اجلاس میں منظور کی گئی Date: 21st September, 2024 این ڈی اے حکومت کی کارکردگی تقریباً تمام میکرو اکنامک پیرامیٹرز میں خراب رہی ہے۔ لوک نیتی-سی ایس ڈی ایس(CSDS) پری پول سروے (دی ہندو، اپریل 11، 2024) کے مطابق، بےروزگاری اور مہنگائی دو بڑے مسائل نےجہاں لوک سبھا انتخابات 2024 کے نتائج کو متاثر کیا،وہیںاس بجٹ میں مہنگائی اور بے روزگاری کے چیلنجز سے نمٹنے کی کوئی سنجیدہ کوشش نہیں کی گئی۔ وزیر اعظم کے پیکیج کے حصے کے طور پرایمپلائمنٹ لنکڈ انسینٹیو(روزگارپر مبنی حوصلہ افزائی) کے لیے موجود اسکیمیں کام نہیں کر رہی ہیں کیونکہ یہ سپلائی سائیڈ مداخلت ہے اور صرف اجرت میں کمی اورلیبر کی ہنر مندی موجودہ بے روزگاری کے بحران کو حل نہیں کرسکتی۔ بے روزگاری کی شرح میں 2000 اور 2012 میں 2 فیصد سے تھوڑا سا اضافہ ہوا جو 2019 میں 5.8 فیصد تک پہنچ گیا۔ ایک بڑی تشویش یہ ہے کہ مردم شماری/ذات برادری کی مردم شماری کے اعداد و شمار کی دستیابی کی کمی ہے جو پالیسی سازی اور بجٹ سازی کے لیے ضروری ہے۔ مردم شماری 2021 کا کام ابھی شروع نہیں ہوا۔ ریاستوں اور پسماندہ طبقات کے درمیان وسائل کی تقسیم پر اس کے مضمرات کارفرماہوتے ہیں لیکن ہمارے پاس مختلف خطوں اور برادریوں کی آبادی اور سماجی اقتصادی اور ترقیاتی حیثیت کی حقیقی تصویریں نہیں ہیں۔ یونین بجٹ اور اقلیتیں اقلیتوں کی ترقی کے اشاریےنیچےآئے ہیں،اس کے باوجود 2023-24میںوزارت اقلیتی امور کے پچھلے سال کے بجٹ میں2022-23سے 1913کروڑ روپے کی کمی کردی گئی(جو 38 فیصد کی زبردست تخفیف ہے) اور اس باراس میں بھی کوئی تبدیلی نہیں کی گئی۔ رواں مالی سال میں اقلیتوں کے لیے بجٹ مختص کرنے میں درحقیقت کل مرکزی بجٹ کے تناسب میں وزارت کا بجٹ 2022-23(BE) میں 0.12 فیصد سےگھٹ کر 2024-25 میں 0.06 فیصد رہ گیا ہے۔وزارت اقلیتی امور کے لیے اس سال کی کل رقم 2012-13میں مختص کی گئی رقم کے تقریباً برابر ہے۔ پچھلے کچھ سالوں سےوزارت اقلیتی امور بجٹ میں مختص رقم استعمال کی اہل نہیں ہے۔ وزارت اقلیتی امور کےبجٹ مختص رقوم میں کمی کی بڑی وجہ متعدد اسکیموں/ اداروں کا بند ہونا ہے جیسے اقلیتی طلبہ کے لیے مولانا آزاد نیشنل فیلوشپ، بیرون ملک مقیم طلبہ کے لیے تعلیمی قرضوں کے سود پر سبسڈی، مفت کوچنگ اسکیمیں، پری میٹرک کی کوریج میں تخفیف، کلاس 9-10 کے لیے اسکالرشپ، مولانا آزاد ایجوکیشن فاؤنڈیشن (MAEF)/بیگم حضرت محل اسکالرشپ اسکیم، اور مدارس اور اقلیتوں کے لیے اسکیمیں۔ بہت سی بڑی اسکیموں کے لیے مختص رقم میں بھی کمی آئی ہے جیسے میرٹ کم مینس، پری میٹرک اسکیم، مفت کوچنگ اور اس سے منسلک اسکیمیں، مدارس اور اقلیتوں کے لیے تعلیمی اسکیم، اور پردھان منتری جن وکاس کاریاکرم (PMJVK) مدارس اور اقلیتوں کے لیے تعلیمی اسکیم میں مرکزی حصہ میں کمی اور اس کے بعد اسکیم کے بند ہونے سے ریاستوں میں کئی سالوں سے اساتذہ کو اعزازیہ کی عدم ادائیگی کی وجہ سے مدارس میں بچوں کی تعلیم متاثر ہوئی ہے۔ جیسا کہ محکمہ سے متعلق قائمہ کمیٹی برائے سماجی انصاف( 2023-24)نے روشنی ڈالی ہےکہ اسکالرشپ سکیموں کے فنڈز کا ناقص استعمال، کوٹہ سسٹم کی وجہ سے فائدہ اٹھانے والوں کی ناکافی کوریج، فنڈز کی ناکافی اختصاصی کی وجہ سے کم یونٹ لاگت اور کچھ اسکیموں کو ختم بھی کردیاجاناقابل ذکرعوامل ہیں، طلباء کو وظائف کے طور پر دی جانے والی رقم ان کے تعلیمی اخراجات کو پورا کرنے کے لیے کافی نہیں ہےاور اقلیتوں کے لیے پری میٹرک، پوسٹ میٹرک اور میرٹ کم مینس اسکیموں میں اسکالرشپ کی یونٹ لاگت میں اسکیموں کے آغاز (2007-08)کے بعد سے نظر ثانی نہیں کی گئی ہے۔سفارشآل انڈیا مسلم مجلس مشاورت کا مطالبہ ہے کہ یونین بے روزگاری اور مہنگائی سے متعلق مسائل کو فوری طور پر حل کرے۔ مردم شماری/ذات کی مردم شماری جلد از جلد کرائی جائے۔ اقلیتوں کے تعلیمی حصول اور معاشی طور پر بااختیار بنانے میں محرومی کی سطح کو دیکھتے ہوئےوزارت اقلیتی امور کے لیے بجٹ میں مختص رقوم میں نمایاں اضافہ کیا جانا چاہیے۔ تمام اسکالرشپ اسکیموں کو مطالبہ پر مبنی بنایا جانا چاہیے اور والدین کی آمدنی سے متعلق اہلیت کے معیار میں نظرثانی کے ساتھ یونٹ کے اخراجات کو بڑھانے کے لیے اضافی مالی وسائل فراہم کیے جانے چاہیے۔ جو اسکیمیں بند کی گئی ہیں ان کو بحال کیا جائے۔ 15 نکاتی پروگرام کی روسے وسائل کی تقسیم مختلف شعبوں میں اقلیتی برادریوں کی متنوع ضروریات کے مطابق کی جانی چاہیے۔ تجویز کردہ:ڈاکٹر جاوید عالم خان، ایگزیکٹو ڈائریکٹرانسٹی ٹیوٹ آف پالیسی اسٹڈیز اینڈ ایڈوکیسی، نئی دہلی۔

Resolution on Indian Economy and Shirking opportunities for Muslims in Welfare Schemes in Union Budget

Adopted at the National Meeting of All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat Date: 21st September, 2024 ●        In nearly all macroeconomic parameters the performance of NDA government has been poor. The unemployment and inflation where the two major issues impacted the results of the Lok Sabha Elections 2024, according to the Lokniti-CSDS pre-poll survey (The Hindu, April 11, 2024). There is a no serious efforts to address the inflation and unemployment challenges in this budget. The current schemes for ‘Employment Linked Incentive’, as part of the Prime Minister’s package are not going to work because it a supply side intervention and only wage subsides and skill development of labour cannot solve the current unemployment crisis. There was a rise in the unemployment rate from a little more than 2% in 2000 and 2012 to 5.8% in 2019. ●        One of major concern is that there is lack of availability of census/Caste census data which is essential for policy making and budget making. The work of Census 2021 has not started yet. It has implications for the distribution of resources among states and marginalised community because we don’t have real pictures of demography and socio economic and development status of different regions and communities. Union Budget and Minorities ●        In spite of the low development indicators of minorities, there was a drastic decline of 38 per cent in the previous year’s budget (a decrease of Rs 1,913 crore from 2022-23) for the MoMA in 2023-24 and also no change is made in the allocation of budget for minorities in the current financial year. In fact, the total budget of the ministry as a proportion of the total Union Budget has declined to 0.06 per cent in 2024-25 (BE) from 0.12 percent in 2022-23 (BE). This year’s total allocation for the MoMA is almost equal to the amount allocated in 2012-13. ●        For the last few years, MoMA has not been able to utilise funds against the BE. ●        The major reason behind the decline in the allocation of MoMA has been discontinuation of several schemes/institutions such as Maulana Azad National Fellowship for Minority students, Interest subsidy on educational loans for overseas students, Free coaching Schemes, limiting coverage of the Pre-Matric Scholarship for classes 9-10, closing the Maulana Azad Education Foundation (MAEF)/Begum Hazrat Mahal Scholarship Scheme, and the Scheme for Madrasas and Minorities. There has also been a decline in allocations for many major schemes, such as Merit Cum Means, Pre-Matric Scheme, Free Coaching and allied schemes, Education Scheme for Madrasas and Minorities, and the Pradhan Mantri Jan Vikas Karyakram (PMJVK). The decline in the central share in the Education Scheme for Madrasas and Minorities, and subsequent discontinuation of the scheme has affected the education of children in Madrasas due to non-payment of honoraria to teachers in the states for many years. ●        As highlighted by the Departmentally Related Standing Committee on Social Justice – 2023-24, the scholarship schemes face several implementation issues with poor utilization of funds, inadequate coverage of beneficiaries due to the quota system, low unit costs due to inadequate allocations of funds, and also scrapping of some of the schemes. The amounts given to students as scholarships are not adequate to meet their educational expenses. The unit cost for scholarships in Pre-Matric, Post-Matric and Merit-cum-Means schemes for minorities has not been revised since the inception of the schemes (in 2007-08). Recommendation ●        All India Muslim Majlis e Mushawarat demands that Union should address the issues related to unemployment and inflation with immediate effect. The ccensus/caste census should be conducted as soon as possible. The total budget allocation for MoMA should be increased significantly given the level of deprivation in the educational attainment and economic empowerment of minorities. All scholarship schemes should be made demand driven, and additional financial resources should be provided to enhance unit costs along with a revision in the eligibility criterion related to parental income. Schemes that have been discontinued should be revived. Under the 15 Point Programme, resource allocation should be made in line with the diverse needs of minority communities across different sectors.

RESOLUTION ON HIJACKING OF MUSHAWARAT’s NAME FOR CREATING A PARALLEL OUTFIT

Adopted at the National Meeting of All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat Date: 21st September, 2024 The joint meeting if Markazi Majlis e Aamla (national executive) and the Markazi Majlis Mushawarat (General Body) of the All India Muslim Majlis e Mushawarat express its strong displeasure, concern and condemns the creation a parallel outfit hijacking the name of All India Muslim Majlis e Mushawarat and attempts to usurp Organisations registrations. At a juncture when unity in community is dire need of the time, nobody can deny that attempts are being made by enemies of the community to weaken community’s Organisations and the attempt to create dissension in Mushawarat seems to be a ploy of the enemies of community. The small caucus behind this illegal activity is led by Dr. Zafarul Islam Khan, former president, who was expelled with all due process from Mushawarat for unethical acts of usurping the intellectual property including write-ups, photographs, correspondence etc. to be included in the materials particularly in “Mushawarat Documents” to be published and released on the occasion of organization’s golden jubilee celebrations held in 2015. Unfortunately, the former president who received such documents and supervised the collection of the said documents as the president of AIMMM as per the mandate of the resolutions of the Markazi Majlis Aamla, unauthorizedly gave its copyrights to his own publishing house without any legal sanctity of AIMMM. After several unsuccessful attempts of the national executive and that of the general body to convince the former president, Dr. Zafarul Islam Khan to return the received and compiled documents on behalf of AIMMM, Dr. Zafarul Islam Khan was expelled from organisation for his unethical, illegal and criminal act of usurping the same. It is noteworthy to mention that as per the names in the press release of Dr. Zafarul-Islam Khan (only) 11 members of the general body of AIMMM had participated in the illegal convened meeting in 9th July 2024 in New Delhi along with another 12 former members who ceased to be AIMMM members because of their inactivity including the failure to attend mandatory meetings for more than two consecutive years and depositing their annual fees for the same tenure as per the mandatory constitutional requirements for continuing as member of AIMMM inspite of reminders sent to them. The illegal act of creating a parallel group usurping AIMMM’s registration is indeed a criminal act and can attract a criminal case. A legal remedy to stop the illegal acts by this caucus will be explored if attempts of persuasions to stop using AIMMM’s legacy and nomenclature fails. The meeting of AIMMM is of the firm view that the application for membership to those whose membership was ceased because of non- attendance or failure to deposit their annual dues will be sympathetically and favorably considered as per the Dastoor of the AIMMM if they reapply with an assurance that they will attend organization’s meeting as mandated in the constitution.

Resolution on the Bulldozer Rule in Uttar Pradesh and other BJP-Ruled States

Adopted at the National Meeting of All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat Date: 21st September, 2024 The All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat (AIMMM), representing diverse sections of the Indian Muslim community, is deeply concerned about the increasing use of bulldozers as a punitive tool in Uttar Pradesh (UP) and other­ BJP-ruled states. The term “Bulldozer Rule” has become synonymous with a form of extrajudicial and arbitrary punishment that disproportionately impacts marginalized communities, particularly Muslims. These actions often occur in the absence of due legal process, leading to widespread human rights violations, damage to livelihoods, and undermining the principles of justice enshrined in the Indian Constitution. In recent years, this practice has been presented as a crackdown on “illegal encroachments” or properties linked to alleged criminals or protesters. However, the AIMMM believes this approach not only contravenes legal norms but also deepens social divisions and perpetuates discrimination against certain communities. This resolution seeks to address the implications of such actions and calls for immediate remedial measures in the interest of justice, communal harmony, and upholding democratic values. Key Concerns: Impact on Livelihoods: The demolition of homes and businesses results in devastating consequences for families, pushing them into poverty and depriving them of their fundamental right to shelter and livelihood. These actions exacerbate existing socio-economic inequalities. Demands: Conclusion: The AIMMM, while committed to the ideals of national unity and social harmony, cannot remain silent in the face of injustices and violations of constitutional rights. The “Bulldozer Rule” represents a dangerous shift towards authoritarianism and arbitrary state power, and it is our collective responsibility to resist such actions that harm the fabric of Indian democracy. We stand firmly with the victims of these demolitions and demand that justice be served. Let us work towards a future where every citizen, regardless of religion or background, can live with dignity, security, and equality before the law. Place: New Delhi

Resolution on CBSE draconian anti Urdu policies.

Adopted at the National Meeting of All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat Date: 21st September, 2024 Recalling that in the year 2010, Maulana Azad National Urdu University (MANUU) has started three model schools in in Hyderabad, Nuh (Haryana) and Darbhanga (Bihar) offer education for Urdu speaking students and the union government’s Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) had granted them affiliation with full knowledge that their medium of learning was Urdu and the students of the MANUU schools had been getting question papers in English, Hindi and Urdu till 2020. Mushawarat consider it a matter of concern that from the year 2021, the CBSE stopped providing question papers in Urdu language. For the past three years, the students of these three schools had continued to write their answers in Urdu although the question papers had been sent in English and Hindi without any discussions with MANUU before deciding to stop sending question papers in Urdu too and subsequently students are facing difficulty in understanding the questions since they are not in Urdu. The CBSE instead of resolving the issue had moved a step further to discourage students to continue studies in Urdu medium by suddenly deciding that answer papers written in any language other than Hindi and English without the board’s permission would not be evaluated except from the NCT of Delhi in its meeting in June last and with the latest decision of the CBSE, the students of the Urdu medium schools will no longer be allowed to write their answers in Urdu. It is a matter of further concern that the Urdu medium schools in different parts of the country including even those started by MANUU which is a central university and gets grants from union ministry of Human Resources are facing difficulties in ensuring educational empowerment to students in their mother tongue because of the irrational decision of the CBSE to disallow students to continue their studies. Therefore, All India Muslim Majlis e Mushawarat demand immediate withdrawal of the draconian decision of CBSE and restoring the previous policy to allow students to write answers in Urdu language. Mushawarat also appeals for urgent intervention of the union minister for Education to direct the CBSE Board to scrap its policy to disallow Urdu medium students to write exams in Urdu language.

Resolution on Jammu & Kashmir

Adopted at the National Meeting of All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat Date: 21st September, 2024 The All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat (AIMMM), the only confederation of   Muslim organizations and personalities of eminence in India, calls upon the Government of India to consider a progressive roadmap for Jammu and Kashmir following the upcoming elections. While we commend the government and the Election Commission that so far it has ensured free, fair and independent conduct elections and a level playing field has been ensured for all the parties, there is need to look a road map after the elections. There have been allegations of pre-poll manipulations that have ensured that a majority Muslim population will have lesser voice in the forthcoming Assembly. Such an impression needs to be addressed. Like the Delimitation Commission, granting more seats to Hindu minority population regions, and giving Lt. Governor power to nominate five more members, out of which three will be definitely Hindus, two Kashmiri Pandits and one refugees, who migrated from Pakistani territories in 1947. While it is commendable to allow more minority voices in the forthcoming assembly, it does not serve purpose to have a disproportionate representation. As per population of Jammu and Kashmir, where minority Hindu population comprises 28%, they should get their due share that is in 95-member assembly their share should be 29. But the way Delimitation Commission has favored Hindu majority regions and seats there have been increased from 24 to 31 and along with nominated members this number becomes disproportionate to their population. If this formula is to empower minority population, then it needs to be implemented all over India, so that minorities in other states are also politically empowered. Currently there are just 24 Muslim MPs, who should have been 74. And with the Kashmir formula implanted all over the country, their number could be around 200. Apart from this, we believe that a collaborative approach will pave the way for lasting peace, prosperity, and democratic integrity in Jammu and Kashmir. We recommend: 1.  Restoration of Statehood: Immediate Action: Reinstate Jammu and Kashmir’s status as a full-fledged state to honor the aspirations of its people. Rationale:  Statehood will empower local institutions and facilitate better governance aligned with the unique needs of the region. 2.     Empowerment of the Elected Government: Reduce Governor’s Powers:  Limit the administrative powers of the Governor to allow the elected government to function effectively. Strengthen Democracy: Ensuring that elected representatives have the authority to make decisions will reinforce democratic values. 3.     Reduction of Surveillance:  Scale Back Monitoring:  Reevaluate and reduce excessive surveillance measures imposed on the populace. Promote Trust: Alleviating the atmosphere of scrutiny will help rebuild trust between citizens and authorities. 4.     Restoration of Political Freedom: Release Detainees: Free political leaders and activists who have been detained without substantial charges. Encourage Dialogue:  Open political space is essential for healthy discourse and conflict resolution. 5.     Freedom of the Press:  Lift Media Restrictions: Remove limitations imposed on local and national media in the region. Ensure Transparency: A free press is vital for accountability and informed citizenry. 6.     Socio-Economic Development:  Invest in Infrastructure: Prioritize projects that generate employment and improve living standards. Inclusive Growth: Economic development should benefit all communities, fostering unity and progress. 1.     Community Engagement: Promote Civil Society Initiatives: Support organizations working towards social cohesion and peace-building. Educational Programs: Encourage educational exchanges and programs that bridge cultural and communal gaps. The AIMMM stand committed to the welfare of Jammu and Kashmir and believes that these steps are crucial for creating a harmonious and prosperous future. We urge the government to take these recommendations into serious consideration and work collaboratively with all stakeholders.  We envision a Jammu and Kashmir where: Communities live together in peace, mutual respect, and understanding. Every individual enjoys fundamental rights and freedoms. Democratic institutions function without undue interference. The media operates freely, contributing to transparency and accountability. The All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat is dedicated to promoting justice, democracy, and communal harmony throughout India. We believe in constructive dialogue and collaboration to address the challenges facing our nation. (Proposed by:  Mr. Iftikhar Gilani)

Appeal Against the biased Order of Inquiry and Intervention in Madrasahs by the state government of Uttar Pradesh and the Child Rights Commission of India

Date:26th July 2024 To, Madam Draupadi Murmu The Hon’ble President of India, Rashtrapati Bhavan, New Delhi – 110004 Subject: Appeal Against the biased Order of Inquiry and Intervention in Madrasahs by the state government of Uttar Pradesh and the Child Rights Commission of India Respected Hon’ble Madam President, On behalf of the members of All India Muslim Majlis e Mushawarat (AIMMM), the only confederation of Muslim organizations and personalities of eminence, I take the privilege of writing to you with a deep sense of concern regarding the recent directives issued by the Chief Secretary of Uttar Pradesh and the Child Rights Protection Commission of India to inquire into the functioning of Madrasahs in the state of Uttar Pradesh and transition their students to government schools. The directive also says, “the Hindu Students should not be there”. This directive, we believe, is an unwarranted and unconstitutional interference in the religious and educational rights of the Muslim minority community. The right to establish and administer educational institutions of our choice is a fundamental right guaranteed under Article 30(1) of the Constitution of India. This provision ensures that minorities, whether based on religion or language, have the absolute right to establish and administer educational institutions to preserve and transmit their heritage, culture, and religion to their children. Madrasahs play a crucial role in the holistic development of Muslim children, providing not only religious education but also contributing to their moral and ethical upbringing and literacy rate of the nation. The institutions have integrated modern education curricula, ensuring that their students receive a balanced Universal Elementary education. The sudden and unilateral move to transition students to government schools disregards the efforts and contributions of these institutions and violates the community’s right to educate their children in accordance with their religious beliefs. This system of free education committed to weaker section of the community, which came into existence by self-determined social responsibility of Muslims, has been rendering valuable services to the nation for more than a thousand years, and a large part of it is also a big and unparallel successful example of Public Private Partnership. Right now, according to the latest analysis of available data, more than one crore male and female pupils are studying in the madrasas across the country and lakhs of them are in the state of UP. This institution of learning (Madrasahs) carries the burden of early leaning of the Children of the nation without any cost and any kind of discrimination. There are a massive number of children admitted to Madrasahs from weaker sections of other communities from the remote areas of the country. The central government SPQEM reports find that there is the children’s attendance visibly more than government schools and teachers are more punctual, responsible and attention paying to the students. It is pertinent to mention that overwhelming number of students enrolled in the Madrasahs are not only from the BPL families, but they also are admitted due to non-availability of the government primary schools in the immediate neighborhood. Similarly, thousands of Muslim and other religion children study in Vedic Pathshalas, Shishu Mandir and Christian missionary schools. Only targeting the Madrasahs is exposing the intention. The education system of the state is very poor, more than 100 Shiksha Mitras have committed suicide due to non-payment of salary. Targeting the Madrassas will have very bad effects on the state of education in the state. There are a massive number of part-time informal learning centers in the country, out or in the premises of Masjids, the government of Uttar Pradesh is spreading sensation by counting them as madrasahs. Children of these institutes are also admitted to local schools / formal institutes as well as big seminaries (Darul-uloom) give them admission after completion of primary education (UEE). A best example of the contribution of these institutions in the field of education is Kerala, which has the highest position in the country in terms of health care, poverty alleviation and basic education in the Social Development Index, and UNICEF and the WHO place first the state for Child Care. In achieving this, the contributions of these informal part-time learning centers are considered very important. The states should seek their cooperation and not harass them unconstitutionally, while the Right to Education Act has bound the Center and the states to provide quality education to the children in the educational institutions of their choice and Religious Learning are protected by the law. We would like to highlight the following points for your kind consideration: Constitutional Rights: The directive undermines Article 30(1) which guarantees minorities the right to establish and administer educational institutions of their choice. This act can be perceived as an attempt to erode the educational autonomy of the Muslim community. Inclusive Development: The government’s focus should be on enhancing the quality of education across all types of institutions, including Madrasahs, rather than dismantling them. Constructive engagement with Madrasah authorities to ensure quality education would be a more inclusive and effective approach. Therefore, we earnestly request your esteemed office to intervene in this matter and direct the Uttar Pradesh government to withdraw the said directive. We urge you to safeguard the constitutional rights of the Muslim minority and ensure that the principles of justice, equality, and secularism are upheld. We are confident that under your leadership, the rights and freedoms guaranteed by our Constitution will be protected, ensuring that all communities can coexist and contribute to the nation’s progress in harmony. With warm personal regards Yours sincerely, Sd- Feroz Ahmad, Advocate  President All India Muslim Majlis-e-Mushawarat

Legal Notice to Mohammad Sulaiman to stop impersonating as Vice President of AIMMM & claiming to be Professor.

Date: 18th July 2024 Mr. Mohammad Sulaiman Sahab 88/178, Chaman Ganj, Shafiabad Kanpur – 208 001(U.P.) Dear Sulaiman Sahab It has come to our knowledge that since last one months, you have been indulging in claiming to be Vice-President of All India Muslim Majlis -e- Mushawarat (AIMMM) launched in 1964 and issuing statements to press impersonating as its Vice-President. In the last elections of the AIMMM held in 2022-2023 for the tenure of 2023-2027, in which you had yourself participated as a voter, a new team the office bearers were elected in which the eligible voters of AIMMM elected me as president along with 25 members of the Markazi Majlis-e-Amla of AIMMM and there is no provision of elections of any office bearers other than for these 26 posts. You are fully aware that the constitution of AIMMM clearly gives power under Article 8 2(a) to the president to appoint the other office bearers, including the vice president. After assuming charge of the office of AIMMM on 2nd April 2023, the undersigned has appointed 3 Vice Presidents, Maulana Asghar Ali Imam Mehdi Salfi (Ameer, Markazi Jamiat Ahle Hadees Hind), Mr. E.T. Basheer Mohammad M.P (Muslim League) and Mrs. Abeda Inamdar (Educationist from Pune). Subsequently, again on dated 11.11.2023, exercising my powers to appoint vice president, I appointed Mr. Navaid Hamid as the fourth vice president. You were never appointed as any of the office bearer of All India Muslim Majlis -e- Mushawarat, and your impersonation as Vice-President is not only unethical but also illegal, which can invite civil and criminal proceeding against the fraudulent claim. It is pertinent to mention that you are also impersonating yourself as Professor to impress upon the common people for your wrongful gain, when you had never been Professor at any point of time with any university. It appears that you are intentionally and deliberately impersonating your self in different manner for your wrongful gain. You are requested to respond within 15 days as to why civil as well as criminal proceeding are not initiated against you beside disciplinary proceeding as per Dastoor of the Organisation. You are also advised to publicly apologize for your unethical acts with clear clarifications that you don’t hold any office post in All India Muslim Majlis -e- Mushawarat and you are not a Professor.

آستینوں میں چھپالیتی ہے خنجر دنیا                                                                                                                                                 اورہمیں چہرے کا تاثر نہ چھپانا آیا ملک میں اپنی نوعیت کی واحدتاریخی تنظیم” آل انڈیا مسلم مجلس مشاورت” کا قیام  1964 میں مسلم جماعتوں کے مشترکہ پلیٹ فارم کے طورپر جن حالات     میں ہوا تھا،آج ہمارے سامنے ان سےکہیں زیادہ مشکل حالات ہیں اورکسی ذی شعورمسلمان کو احساس دلانے کی ضرورت نہیں ہے کہ اتحادویکجہتی کی قدروقیمت کیاہے۔پھربھی ہمیں مشاورت کے معزز ارکان کو یہ خط لکھنا پڑرہا ہےجوانتہائی تکلیف دہ ہے۔ آل انڈیا مسلم مجلس مشاورت کے سابق صدر اور سابق رکن ڈاکٹر ظفرالاسلام خاں صاحب نےارکان مشاورت کوخط لکھ کرایک بار پھر اختلاف و انتشارکوہوادینے اور غلط فہمیاں پیداکرنے کی کوشش کی ہے ۔ اس سے زیادہ افسوس کی  بات یہ کہ وہ رجسٹرڈ مشاورت کا صدر ہونے کے دعویدارہیں اور لوگوں کو مشاورت کارکن بنانے کے نام پر چندہ کی مہم چلارہے ہیں جوان کا سراسر بےبنیاد دعویٰ اورگمراہ کن فعل ہے۔  اول تو اس گروپ کا جس نےاس وقت کےصدر مشاورت سید شہاب الدین مرحوم کی مخالفت میں مشاورت سےالگ ہوکر 2003میں سوسائٹی رجسٹرڈکرائی تھی، 2013میں اصل مشاورت کے ساتھ باضابطہ انضمام ہوچکا ہے اور رجسٹریشن کے اصل کاغذات ہماری کی تحویل میں ہیں،لہٰذا ایسی کسی سوسائٹی کا کوئی علاحدہ یامتوازی وجود اب کہیں باقی نہیں ہے۔خودراقم السطور شیخ منظوراحمدکوبھی اسی رجسٹرڈمشاورت نے رکنیت دی تھی اوراسی انضمام و اتحادکے نتیجے میں یہ حقیراب آل انڈیامسلم مجلس مشاورت کاحصہ ہے ۔دوم ڈاکٹر ظفرالاسلام خاں 2022 سے مشاورت کے رکن بھی نہیں ہیں، تادیبی کارروائی کے تحت موصوف کی رکنیت منسوخ ہوگئی تھی کیونکہ انہوں نے مختلف حیلوں بہانوں سے مشاورت اور اس کی جائیدادوں پر مستقل قبضہ کرنے کی کوشش کی تھی جس کی تفصیلات ارکان مشاورت کے علم میں ہیں۔ مشاورت کے تنظیمی امور میں مداخلت کا کوئی حق آں موصوف کو نہیں پہنچتا، ان کی یہ سرگرمیاں سراسر ناجائز اور قانوناً قابل مواخذہ ہیں۔وہ اور ان کے پیچھے جولوگ بھی ہیں مشاورت میں رجسٹرڈ سوسائٹی کے انضمام واتحاد کوتباہ کرنے کی مذموم سازش اورذاتی مفادات کےحصول کے لیے مشاورت کوناقابل تلافی نقصان پہنچانے کی کوشش کر رہے ہیں جوان شاء اللہ کامیاب نہیں ہوگی۔ضرورت ہے کہ ان عناصر کی سازشوں کا قلع قمع سختی سے کیا جائے ورنہ اتنا تفصیلی خط لکھنا اور آپ کو زحمت توجہ دینا کوئی خوشگوار عمل نہیں ہے۔ ڈاکٹر صاحب موصوف نے اپنے مکتوب (مرقومہ29اپریل 2024 ) کے ذریعے ارکان مشاورت کی میٹنگ بلائی ہےاورلوگوں کو ورغلانے کے لیےانہوں نے مشاورت پر اپنےبےبنیادسنسنی خیز الزامات کا اعادہ کیا ہے،مثلاً دستور مشاورت میں منمانی ترمیمات کی گئیں،مشاورت سے 70 ارکان کو نکال باہر کیاگیا اور غیرمعیاری لوگوں کو مشاورت کی رکنیت دی گئی جبکہ ان کا ایک بھی دعوی حقیقت سےقریب نہیں ہے۔ڈاکٹر خان کے دعووں کی دستاویزی تردیدمشاورت کے کاغذات میں موجود ہے ۔وہ اپنے زیرنظر مکتوب میں اپنی تحریروں، تقریروں اور مشاورت کی کارروائیوں میں موجود ان مندرجات کے برخلاف دعوے کررہے ہیں جن پر ان کے دستخط موجود ہیں ۔زیرنظرمکتوب میں آپ ان کی نکات وارتفصیلات د یکھ سکتے ہیں۔   جیساکہ آپ جانتے ہیں،مشاورت کے دستور میں کبھی کوئی منمائی ترمیم نہیں کی گئی اور ایسا کرناممکن بھی نہیں ہے۔اگریہ ممکن ہوتاتو ڈاکٹرصاحب موصوف اپنے دور صدارت کے آخری ایام میں ترمیم لانے کی جوکوشش کررہے تھے، ناکام نہ ہوتی ۔دستورمیں جو ترامیم آخری بار لائی گئی ہیں،ان  میں ہرترمیم کو 67 فیصد سے 81 فیصد تک ارکان مشاورت کی تائید حاصل ہے اورترمیم شدہ دستور کے نفاذ کے بعد مشاورت کی مجلس عاملہ کے انتخابات (برائےمیقات 2026-2023 ) میں 85 فیصد سے زیادہ ارکان نے حصہ لیا اور منصب صدارت کے لئے دو امیدواروں کے درمیان دوستانہ مقابلہ میں منتخب امیدوار کو تقریباً 57 فیصد ووٹ حاصل ہوئے۔ڈاکٹر صاحب موصوف کااعتراض ان کے آمرانہ مزاج کا اشتہار اورایک انتہائی غیرجمہوری فعل ہے۔ دستور میں ترمیم یا اس کی کسی شق پر اختلاف رائے کو مسئلہ بناکر انتشار کو ہوا دینا ہر گز کوئی دانشمندی نہیں ۔جو لوگ بھی اس طرح کے کام کررہے ہیں،مسلمانوں کے اتحاد اور ملی تنظیموں کو نقصان پہنچا رہے ہیں۔ مشاورت ایک جمہوری تنظیم ہے اور دستور مشاورت میں ترمیم و تصحیح کا دروازہ ہر وقت کھلا ہواہے ۔ ارکان مشاورت جب چاہیں دستور میں مذکور ضوابط (Due  process)کے تحت ایسا کر سکتے ہیں ۔ اگر دستور کی کسی شق پر کسی کے پاس کو ئی معقول اعتراض ہے تو وہ اپنی تجاویز مشاورت میں پیش کرے نہ کہ لوگوں کو ورغلاکر جتھے بنائے اوران کے دلوں میں وسوسے ڈالے۔ جن ارکان کی رکنیت دستورمشاورت کی روشنی میں ان کی عدم فعالیت اور ڈفالٹ کی بناپر منسوخ ہوئی تھی، ان کے تعلق سےڈاکٹر ظفرالاسلام خان صاحب نے اپنے خط میں دعوی کیا ہے کہ 70 ارکان کا مشاورت سے اخراج کردیا گیا جبکہ غیرفعال ارکان کی رکنیت منسوخ کرنے کی قرارداد خود ان کی اپنی صدارت میں منعقدہ مشاورت کی جنرل باڈی اور مجلس عاملہ کی 5 ِ دسمبر 2015ء کی مشترکہ میٹنگ میں منظورکی گئی تھی اوربالآخر 12 فروری 2017 کی جنرل باڈی میٹنگ میں جس میں ڈاکٹر ظفرالاسلام خان صاحب بنفس نفیس موجود تھے اور اس بات پر اصرار کر رہے تھے کہ ان ایکٹیو ارکان کا اخراج ہو، یہ طے کیا گیا تھاکہ فی الحال ایسے 14 ان ایکٹو (غیر فعال) ارکان کا اخراج کیا جائے۔ غیر فعال  ارکان کا معاملہ اکتوبر 2018 کی حیدرآباد میں منعقد جنرل باڈی میٹنگ میں بھی زیر بحث آیا اور پھر27ِ فروری 2021 کوبھی اس معاملے پر آسام سے رکن جناب حافظ رشید احمد چودھری صاحب(جن کی حمایت کےڈاکٹرصاحب دعویدارہیں) کی تحریری قرارداد میٹنگ میں پیش ہوئی۔دستور کی متعلقہ شقوں اور قراردادمشترکہ اجلاس (5دسمبر2015) کی روشنی میں اس پرکارروائی کے نتیجے میں جن غیر فعال ارکان کی رکنیت منسوخ کی گئی، ان کی
