The Muttahida Majlis-e-Ulema (MMU), an amalgam of religious and social groups in the Kashmir Valley, on Saturday said attempts were underway “to undermine the Muslim identity of Kashmir”.
The MMU organised a meeting in Srinagar’s Jama Masjid to discuss the recent alleged measures to start singing Hindu hymns and Surya Namaskar in educational institutes of the Valley.
“The diktats related to Hindu hymns and Surya Namaskar hurt the religious sentiments of Muslims and create anguish in them. Unfortunate attempts are being made to undermine the Muslim identity of Kashmir by asking Muslim students in schools and educational institutions to sing them,” an MMU spokesperson said.
