🚨 India’s Waqf Amendment Act 2025 is being called a direct attack on Muslim religious rights.

Critics say it violates Article 26 and label it a “genocidal project” by the BJP.

What is Waqf—and why are so many protesting?

1/ How the Hindu supremacist Baratiya Janata Party (BJP) wins elections by disenfranchising voters, mostly Muslims through ‘Special Intensive Revision’ of the voters list. The data shows SIR has played a significant role in its election victory in an Indian state of West Bengal.

Absolutely abhorrent and racist comments from reform candidates across the UK, no condemnation

[UK Indian Muslim Council @UKIMCouncil]

A wonderful article to understand the lessons on Indian Politics in the wake of the latest elections including in West Bengal and Assam.

1/ The crisis in places like Assam & West Bengal is not simply electoral manipulation. The deeper problem is the exhaustion of oppositional politics itself.
Disenfranchisement matters. But procedural outrage alone cannot defeat hegemony.

[StriveUK @StriveUKOrg]

3/ Perhaps the most revealing contradiction: Muslims are expected to defend secularism, while secular parties hesitate to even name Islamophobia.
The question is not only how democracy was undermined — but why oppositional politics no longer inspires collective hope.

1/20🧵Since February's Gorton by-election, and the run up to the this week's local elections, we’ve tracked a surge in anti-Muslim framing with regards to Muslim voters.

Across the 1,000+ articles we analysed, 1 in 4 linked #Muslims to "threat."

Here's the full picture 👇🏽

[UK Indian Muslim Council @UKIMCouncil]

The process to elect the government in Indian state of West Bengal has completed today. But the Election Commission of India, the top body to conduct election, failed itself, the people , the Constitution and the very idea of electoral democracy. You know why?

1/9 Tonight @BBCPanorama reports on rising #antisemitism. No equivalent film exists for #Islamophobia. This is not accidental. It reflects a hierarchy of racism embedded in BBC editorial culture, consistently prioritising #Jewish suffering over #Muslim suffering.

A thread. 🧵

Refusing the term Islamophobia is also refusing the history and structure that it compels us to confront.

On International Day to Combat Islamophobia, at a time of rising Islamophobia globally, from everyday racism to the dehumanising discourses surrounding genocide and mass violence, the UK government remains reluctant to name Islamophobia as such.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Muslims worldwide often face institutional discrimination, socio-economic exclusion, biased immigration policies & unwarranted surveillance & profiling.

This International Day to Combat Islamophobia, let’s re-commit to the equality, human rights & dignity of every person, no matter their faith.

[StriveUK @StriveUKOrg]

Replacing Islamophobia with “anti-Muslim hostility,” is more than just a terminology change. it reduces a structural condition shaped by racialisation, securitisation and unequal power to something that appears merely interpersonal.

🚨 FACT CHECK: Viral claim about a “Holi attack” in Harrow is a lie to stoke up community tensions.

INSIGHTUK claims without any evidence that “Muslim youth attacked Holi celebrations in Harrow.”
Authorities rejected it and confirmed the incident wasn’t targeted at any community

[UK Indian Muslim Council @UKIMCouncil]

PM Narendra Modi’s visit & support to the Zionist regime in Israel which is committing genocide in Gaza is appalling. It shows Hindutva is not just an ally, rather admiring the genocidal regime as a model for its anti-Muslim genocidal project in India, as we previously stated

[UK Indian Muslim Council @UKIMCouncil]

Modi Govt Gave Rs 63 Lakh for Event Calling for ‘Removing Muslims’.
Hate speeches and demands for Hindu Rashtra were made at the event funded by Union Culture Ministry under Hindutva ruling party BJP in India.. An investigation revealed shocking, though not surprising, reality.
