No organisation associated with Islam participated in the relief work during the Odisha train accident
In the context of the recent Odisha train accident tragedy, a post circulating on social media claims that only the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) participated in the rescue operations, while no Muslim organization helped despite the presence of several mosques at the accident site. Let’s verify the claim made in the post. [...] Fact: Islamic organizations, such as Dawat-e-Islami India and Jamiat-Ulama-i-Hind, have actively participated in the relief work following the Odisha accident. They have provided essential supplies like food and water to the victims and facilitated transportation to nearby hospitals. Hence, the claim made in the post is MISLEADING. Through an internet search using relevant keywords, it was discovered that, in addition to the RSS, Islamic organizations such as Dawat-e-Islami India and Jamiat-Ulama-i-Hind have participated in the relief operations for the victims of the Odisha train accident. They have provided assistance by supplying food and water to the affected individuals, as well as arranging transportation for victims to nearby hospitals, among other efforts.
