Speaking out against the brutality against Muslims in India, Ms Marri stated that state violence was being carried out against Muslims in eight Indian states, and Islamophobia was increasing day by day, which she condemned.
In addition, she highlighted the oppression of Muslims in India, including the destruction of their businesses and the squeezing of their land.
Ms Marri also urged the international community to take note of the violence against Palestinian worshippers in Al-Aqsa Mosque, with a resolution having been recently passed to condemn such brutality.
She further condemned similar incidents of violence against Palestinians during Ramadan, calling on the international community to take action.
