for Muslims which in turn fuel the right wing agenda XX charging them of Muslim appeasement. The Muslim community gets the worse of both. The chronic corruption within the system prevents them from exercising the benefits of governmetn prorgammes, on the other hand they became the target of right wing parties charging the secular parties with appeasing them in order to nurture the Muslim vote bank. Here I would like to make it clear that corruption in the deliver system is not peculiar to programmes targeted for Muslim communities as a rule money allocated for the social sector, be it for affrimative action for the Dalits, disabled or destitute, it hardly trickles down to the beneficiaries especially in another state of India. The government do not have educated political will to monitor and the administration tkae advantage of this fact. In the case of Muslim community, the consequences of such corruption become more glaring as they do not have other recourses such as reservation which are available to other marginalised communities. These instances show that there is an imminent need to monitor the implementation and execution of these schemes so that benefit could reach those for whom they are actually meant. I hope that this declaration would act as a tool in advocating for a a creation of an enabling envirnoment which would allow the community to monitor the execution of these programmes and ensure easy access to these benefits so that a level playing field could be created in due course ensuring that the Muslim community no longer need as special favour for their development. I would like as we have the, the declaration is so invisible in our country I hope I would like that Mrs. Iszak the independent expert would grace us with her visit so that we have more visibility towards this declaration. Thank you for your attention.
