“Urdu Madrasas and their condition needs to be considered. The nature of present government needs not to be hostile towards the Muslims. The participation of Muslims in every sector is very low , this needs to be improved ” he said.
He also said that media, research scholars, political commentators don’t show any interest in Muslim issues. He also stated that the condition of Muslims in India is soon going to be like Dalits.
