Bhatkal: Local socio-political organization Majlis-e-Islah wa Tanzeem on Friday submitted a memorandum to President Droupadi Murmu condemning the killings of over 11,000 civilians in Gaza and the ‘hypocrisy’ of the Western countries including the USA and UK.
The memorandum stated that the UK and US were ‘adding fuel to the fire by suppling military assistance, arms and finances to Israel despite the latter violating United Nations Charter for humanitarian and rules of war.
“We condemn brutal and barbaric indiscriminate catastrophic attack on Palestinian civilian population, on schools, hospitals and refugee camp by the right- wing Netanyahu government, the indiscriminate occupation of Palestinian lands and killing thousands of Palestinian kids and women.
“It's a level of insanity to allow civilians to be butchered, babies to be killed, hospitals to be bombed, and schools to be destroyed. The international community is allowing an act of genocide to be committed. The ethnic cleansing on Palestinian @Israel with the support of the west is a crime against humanity punishable under the statute of International Criminal Court,” the memorandum stated.
It demanded that Indian must press for immediate resolution for protection of civilians and upholding legal and humanitarian values and for unhindered humanitarian access in the Gaza Strip.
“The Security Council must act to put an end to bloodshed and restart peace negotiations with a view to establish a Palestinian state as it was supposed to so long age,” the memorandum added.
“We demand, Israel’s series of war crimes in Gaza must be tried in International Criminal Court. Let the United Nations impose sanctions on Israel via economic boycott to oblige them to implement human rights charters, safeguard of human values and liberties. We stand with Palestinians and support free Palestine.” The memorandum further stated.
A copy of the memorandum has also been attached to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud.

Hazrat Nizamuddin-bound Vande Bharat Express gets delayed by 11 hours; passengers protest
Bhopal, Nov 25: High drama was witnessed at Rani Kamalapati railway station in Bhopal after the Vande Bharat Express for Hazrat Nizamuddin in Delhi was delayed on Monday by nearly 11 hours due to a technical snag, officials and eyewitnesses said.
Before the premium train, which otherwise departs from Rani Kamalapati station at 5.40 am, left for its destination in the evening, angry passengers staged a protest on railway tracks alleging they had not been intimated about the delay.
As a result of the delay, the Vande Bharat Express (20172) from Hazrat Nizamuddin to Rani Kamalapati station was cancelled on Monday evening. Similarly, the Vande Bharat Express (20171) from Kamalapati to Nizamuddin stands cancelled on Tuesday, Jabalpur-based West Central Railway (WCR) Chief Public Relation Officer Harshit Shrivastava told PTI when contacted over phone.
The semi-high speed train left for its destination in the evening instead of its scheduled time in the morning, WCR's Acting Public Relation Officer (Bhopal Division) Naval Agrawal confirmed to PTI.
Agrawal, however, maintained he does not know the exact departure time, but eyewitnesses said the train left for Hazrat Nizamuddin at around 4.30 pm, nearly 11 hours late.
The train was delayed due to technical reasons, he said, adding passengers were kept in the loop via different mediums, including train-related apps, about the delay.
Many passengers boarded the Vande Bharat Express (20171) headed to Nizamuddin, he said.
The Railways did not cancel the train on Monday keeping the interest of passengers in mind, the acting PRO emphasised.
Agrawal said the rail yard at Rani Kamalapati station (formerly Habibganj) was well equipped and has the expertise to repair and do maintenance work of the new-age Vande Bharat trains.
According to eyewitnesses, passengers who turned up at Rani Kamalapati station protested after the train did not depart for Hazrat Nizamuddin at its scheduled time of 5.40 am.
Some of the passengers, after a long wait, tried to entered the Shatabdi Express (which goes to New Delhi) at around 3.10 pm, but were pushed back by Railway Protection Force personnel, they said.
A group of angry passengers with backpacks then squatted on the tracks in protest, the eyewitnesses added.
The Vanda Bharat Express (20172), upon returning from Hazrat Nizamuddin to Rani Kamlaapati station at around 10.20 pm on Sunday, suffered a technical malfunction as a spring of C11 coach went kaput, sources said.
The train was taken to the yard for repair, but the snag could not be fixed in time, thus delaying its early morning departure, they explained.
