Many a times the government has appointed different commissions to look after the situations of minorities community such as Sachar Commission, Ranganath Mishra commission etc, But till date they have not yet implemented any of the suggestions of these commissions.

He envisioned that SDPI will work towards the progress of all Muslims, Christians and Dalits in future. “Seeing current situation of Muslims, the Government should implement the commission report. May all the people understand the ground reality that is enough for social change with explanation,” he said.
