by · The Hindu

The All India Milli Council Telangana has voiced concerns over the escalating number of communal incidents in the State, particularly in Hyderabad. A recent incident involving the desecration of the Muthyalamma Temple in Secunderabad has sparked outrage, prompting the Council to condemn the act.

In a statement, the All India Milli Council asserted that such incidents threaten communal harmony and must be addressed with the utmost seriousness. The Council called upon police authorities to take swift and decisive action to ensure that those responsible are brought to justice. “We urge for a prompt investigation so that the accused faces the full force of the law,” the statement read.

The Council also expressed solidarity with the affected community, highlighting its dedication to maintaining peace and harmony across the region. In addition to the Secunderabad incident, the Council highlighted the communal violence in Jainoor, located in Asifabad district. This violence has led to significant hardships for the local population, including loss of livelihoods and a persistent Internet shutdown that exacerbates their struggles, they said.

Mufti Omar Abideen, General Secretary of the All India Milli Council Telangana, stressed the need for immediate action from the Director General of Police (DGP) of Telangana regarding those involved in these incidents. “It is imperative that normalcy is restored at the earliest, and efforts are made to curb acts and narratives that promote communalism,” he stated.
