Mumbai: “The framers of our constitution recognising the special needs of the minorities granted them protection through constitutional measures in matters related to their freedom and prosperity. However, over six decades since independence we have experienced that minorities’ interests can be served better when the majority community is taken on board on issues of common interest. Two important common issues are communal harmony and economic betterment.” said Danis Reyaz who is organizing 4th All India Minorities business summit on 21st December 2012; 5:00 pm (Sharp) at Islam Gymkhana, Marine Lines, in Mumbai.

Describing current scenario, he said “Only in recent history have we seen leading intellectuals, business executives and professionals joining the minorities to understand their economic and business requirements and supporting their cause. Consequently, in the last few years we have seen India’s mainstream business houses launching schemes which not only address the economic needs of minority communities but also comply with their religious beliefs. Even government owned financial institutions are now feeling encouraged coming forward with similar plans. Building on this we have decided to organize 4th All India Minorities Business Summit in the financial capital of India, Mumbai.”

Sharing previous experience he said “Like our previous events, this year too we hope to attract some of the top economists, business executives, policy makers, academicians and activists. We also hope that business houses in large numbers will support our initiative to make this Summit a grand success and help us build a better common tomorrow. Like Mufti Barkatullah Abdulqadar,Shariah Advisor Islamic Bank of Britain,coming from London, Hasan Abdul Karim Chogle,CMD Emaad Group of Companies is coming from Qatar and big corporate personalities from Indian Corporate sector are participating the event.” Read more
