(Loop News) – The Anjuman Sunnat-ul-Jamaat Association (ASJA) said it has concerns surrounding the upcoming official visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Trinidad and Tobago.
General Secretary Rahimool Hosein said ASJA’s “measured yet profound reservations” are rooted in “extensive and credible international concerns” over the Modi administration’s treatment of Muslim minorities.
Hosein said while the organisation respects the right of sovereign nations to pursue diplomatic engagement, it’s necessary to critically examine PM Modi’s political legacy.
The ASJA General Secretary noted that this includes the 2002 Gujarat riots, the discriminatory Citizenship Amendment Act, the revocation of Kashmir’s special constitutional status, and the symbolic inauguration of a temple on the site of the demolished Babri Masjid.
