NCP (SCP) MP Fauzia Khan calls for peace on Eid, questions war motives amid West Asia tensions

"the need of the hour is to restore peace across the world - Fauzia Khan"

New Delhi, March 21

NCP MP Fauzia Khan on Saturday extended warm greetings to citizens across the country on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr, emphasising the festival's core message of charity, compassion, and unity.

She highlighted that during the holy month of Ramadan, acts of charity hold deep significance in Islam, and urged people to carry forward these values in everyday life. Calling Islam a peace-loving religion, she expressed concern over rising global unrest and said that the need of the hour is to restore peace across the world.

Khan further appealed to citizens to strengthen the bonds of brotherhood and coexistence, stressing that harmony among communities is essential for a stable society.

Speaking on the ongoing tensions in the Middle East, she questioned the very basis of the conflict, stating that its objectives remain unclear. Referring to recent statements by Donald Trump regarding the strategically significant Strait of Hormuz, she suggested that such remarks indicate limitations in the United States' global influence.

Khan further said that if there are now signals from Trump about winding down or reducing the conflict, it is a welcome step. However, she also criticised what she described as the initial escalation, attributing it to "madness" that began from his side.

Reiterating her stance, she called for an immediate end to violence and bloodshed, urging all global powers to prioritise peace and stability over conflict.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended his greetings to the nation on the occasion of Eid al-Fitr, wishing happiness, health, and brotherhood for all.

In a post on X, PM Modi wrote, "Best wishes on Eid-ul-Fitr. May this day further brotherhood and kindness all around. May everyone be happy and healthy. Eid Mubarak!"President Draoupadi Murmu also extended her felicitations to citizens, particularly the Muslim community.

In a post on X, President Murmu said, "Heartiest congratulations to all fellow citizens, especially Muslim sisters and brothers, on the blessed occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr. This festival imparts the lesson of self-restraint, service, philanthropy, and compassion towards the underprivileged sections. Let us, on this occasion, resolve to strengthen society and the nation."

Ramazan, the ninth month of the Muslim calendar, is one of the most sacred times as it is believed that the Quran came down to the earth from heaven for the very first time.

At the end of Ramazan, Eid al-Fitr celebrates the breaking of the fast. Friends and families gather for festive meals and exchange gifts. Special gifts are also given to the poor. It is also believed that fasting during the month of Ramazan is one of the Five Pillars of Islam.

While I appreciate the Eid greetings, I wish our MPs would focus more on domestic harmony and less on commenting on global conflicts. We have enough challenges within our own borders that need attention first.

She makes a valid point about questioning the motives of foreign wars. Too often, Indian lives and our economy are impacted by conflicts we have no part in. Global powers should indeed prioritize peace. Jai Hind.

As someone living in India for the past 5 years, the emphasis on charity during Ramadan is truly inspiring. The message from both the MP and our President about compassion for the underprivileged is something every society needs.

Respectfully, I disagree with the MP's characterization of the initial escalation. The situation in West Asia is complex with many actors. Simplifying it as one person's "madness" overlooks the deep-rooted issues. However, her final call for an end to violence is absolutely correct.

Eid Mubarak! 🎉 Let's all take forward the lesson of self-restraint and service mentioned by President Murmu. In today's world, a little more compassion from everyone would go a long way. Proud of our diverse and peaceful Indian traditions.
