Hyderabad, December 18: Separate T-State would ensure the progress of the Muslims. The false propaganda of the opponents of Telangana is an attempt to set aside the Muslims from the T-movement. Apprehensions are being made that the fundamentalist forces would get strengthened in T-State whereas the fact is that the Muslim population would go up to 22 percent. Muslim voters would become the deciding factors. These thoughts were expressed by the Vice President of Telangana Praja Front Mr. Zaheerudin Ali Khan, Managing Editor of Siasat at a meeting held at Azam Function Hall, Azampura.
The other speakers were Mr. Mahmood Ali of TRS, Mr. Jamaluddin, Mr. Raja Reddy and Jayashree. Continuing his speech, Mr. Zaheeruddin Ali Khan said that the Muslims are not afraid of anyone. He further told that the Muslims were the major sufferers of the integration of Telangana with Andhra. Hundreds of Muslims who were living in palaces were forced to lead life on the roads. Thousands of the Muslims were thrown out of jobs on the pretext of not knowing Telugu. Lakhs of acres of lands were usurped citing the precedents of injustice, he said that from the houses constructed by AP Housing Board after 1956, only 12% were gives to Telangana people.
Leaders who assume power in the name of Telangana, forget the problems of Telangana people and struggle to save their chairs. He further told the audience that efforts are being made to sabotage T-movement, but the parties who claim to support the cause of Telangana are now keeping quiet. He warned that all those who oppose T-movement will be punished by the people.
Addressing the gathering, Mr. Mahmood Ali told that Telangana region will be advantageous to all the sections of the society.
