Muslims will gain respect in the country

“This scheme by the Union Government is meant for the welfare of all castes, communities and classes. Muslims will gain respect if they participate in this scheme. The problem of unemployment will be solved. After a four-year service in the army, there will be enough money to choose a profession of your choice. Job opportunities in various departments in the Union and State Government will also be available,” clarified Qazi Saqib Adeeb.

Editorial Perspectives

• Such an appeal to join the Indian army was never made in the mosques earlier; hence it smells of a conspiracy.

• In 1948, when Pakistan attacked Kashmir, Muslims soldiers in Maharaja Hari Singh’s army had defected to Pakistani Army. That incident cannot be forgotten.
