Abu Dhabi, Feb 12: Indian Cultural Society, an NRI wing of Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI), arranged a reception to party’s national advisor Ilyas Mohammad Thumbay, on February 12, at Madina Zayed, Lulu Party Hall, Abu Dhabi.
Delivering the key note address on this occasion Ilyas Thumbay said, SDPI is not formed for political thrust or self-intended interests. Rather, it formed for the empowerment of all marginalized sections of the society by mobilizing themselves into a political force, instead of remaining as mere vote banks of different political parties in elections. He gave brief presentation about Why SDPI and recent achievements of party.
He said, the two major parties, one is indulging in communalization and another one is covered with corruption, until Aam Admi Party (AAP) achievement there was no alternative political party, this shows how the people rejected two major parties, it is lesson for us to unite ourselves to achieve our dreams. Mr. Ilyas Thumbay on behalf of SDPI congratulated the AAP for his recent success in Delhi election.
He gave various examples of injustice faced by minorities, backward communities, especially Muslims by political parties. He said that the people in India have lost trust on major parties. The entire election process has been corrupted due to communalization and family politics. In such a grim scenario the SDPI has emerged as a strong political alternative, claimed Mr. Ilyas Thumbay.
He alleged that all the parties used Muslims as vote bank and since Independence cheated us with false promises and assurances. E.g. non implementations of Justice Sachar Committee report, Ranganath Mishra report, Shri Krishna Commission, Justice Liberhan Commission etc. He said our secularism and socialism is in threat due to grave silence of administration.
He said that SDPI is the party of marginalized sections of India which include minorities, Dalits and other backwards. It is setting its foot out for a struggle to recapture the country’s stolen fruits of freedom, sovereignty and development. The party has put forth the slogan of ‘Freedom from Hunger, Freedom from Fear’.
