from martyr Abdul Hameed to late President of India APJ Abdul Kalam, the history of India could not be written without mention of Muslims. Everybody’s blood including that of Hindus and Muslims is incorporated in the freedom of the country,” Masood said.
Masood further said that the Muslims of the country are Indian first than they are something else. Muslims have always proved their loyalty for the country and there is not a single name of Muslim in the list of country’s traitors. Insulting and labeling Muslims in the name of terrorism should be stopped, he added.
He said Muslims are as nationalists as any other majority community person or leader and this has been proved by the community time and again. Unfortunately, there are some political organizations that consolidate their vote bank by targeting Muslims, this should be stopped, he added.
