In order to woo Muslims the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) will be organizing an All India Ulema Conference here on August 8 in which religious leaders from across the country will take part.
The function will be organized by Muslim Rashtriya Manch (MRM), which had organized series of Iftar parties for Muslims during Ramzan across country. These parties were attended by a large section of Muslims.
Manch’s convener Mahirdhwaj Singh said here on Sunday that over 2000 ulemas from across the country would be participating in this conference on August 8. “The focus of the conference would be bridge the gap between the Hindus and Muslims. We are always treated as anti-Muslims but the fact is we treat them as Indian first,” Singh said.
The RSS sponsored Iftar parties, considered to be the brain child of Indresh Kumar, national convener of MRM, were a grand success in which large number of Muslims took part. Incidentally, the RSS has kept the BJP leaders out of this party and had not even invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Iftar party thrown in New Delhi on July 4.
In the Ulema council meet too the MRM plans to keep the BJP out of the limelight. Singh told reporters here that the objective of organizing this conference is to develop secular India and develop riot, violence and hatred free environment in the country.
“We do not delve in politics. This act of ours is at attempt to build nation where every individual has the right to express his views,” he said.
