Indian Social Forum’s Central Committee, Dammam has issued a press release condemning police atrocities and brutality at educational campuses over the last few days where the police has used force to stop protesters of CAA and NRC.
Condemning the use of force in Jamia Milia, Aligarh University and Darul Uloom, the forum added that the central government was compromising with secular principles of the country. It also added the central government using colonial laws such as NRC and CAA is discriminating between majority and minority communities.
“The forum condemns police atrocities at education campus such as Jamia Milia, Aligarh University & Darul-Uloom. Central government has passed colonial laws against its own citizens, legislation which are passed by the current government are against the basics principles of secularism which is the foundation of our great nation. By getting Citizenship Amendment Act union government is discriminating between the majority and minority communities in India, which is also the agenda of ruling party. The role of Delhi Police which is under Central government has also raised several doubts” the press release stated.

Here by Indian Social forum support the peace full protests which are against the people of India. Instead passing these black laws we argue government to take approximate step to resolve the economic crisis of the country instead implementing their saffron agenda” the press statement added.
