The Mutahida Majlis-e-Ulema (MMU), a coalition of all major Muslim religious organizations in Jammu and Kashmir led by Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, has voiced strong opposition to a recent government directive mandating schools to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Vande Mataram through musical and cultural programs with compulsory participation from students and staff.&nbsp;In a sharply worded statement, the MMU described the order from the Jammu and Kashmir Government's Department of Culture as "coercive" and "unjust," warning that it violates core Islamic principles. "Singing or reciting Vande Mataram is un-Islamic, as it contains expressions of devotion that contradict the fundamental Islamic belief in the absolute Oneness of Allah (Tawheed)," the body said. "Islam does not permit any act that involves worship or reverence directed to anyone or anything other than the Creator."&nbsp;The MMU emphasized that while Muslims are encouraged to love and serve their homeland through acts of compassion, service, and societal contribution, such devotion must not conflict with faith. "Forcing Muslim students or institutions to participate in activities that clash with their religious beliefs is both unjust and unacceptable," the statement added.&nbsp;Accusing the directive of being a "deliberate attempt to impose an RSS-driven Hindutva ideology on a Muslim-majority region under the guise of cultural celebration," the MMU argued that it undermines genuine unity and respect for diversity rather than fostering it.&nbsp;The religious body has urged both the Lieutenant Governor-led administration and Chief Minister to immediately withdraw the order, which it says has caused "anguish to all Muslims." It demanded assurances that no student or institution will be compelled to act against their religious convictions.The controversy comes amid ongoing debates over cultural mandates in the region, with the government yet to respond to the MMU's concerns. Critics see the directive as part of broader efforts to promote national integration, while opponents view it as insensitive to religious sensitivities in Jammu and Kashmir.

Fresh snowfall swept across Gulmarg and other high-altitude areas of Kashmir on Tuesday evening, transforming the Valley into a winter wonderland and prompting the temporary closure of the historic Mughal Road as a precautionary measure.&nbsp;The Mughal Road, which connects Shopian district with Rajouri and Poonch, was shut down at Peer Ki Gali following the accumulation of snow. "Traffic movement has been stopped on the Mughal Road due to fresh snowfall. People are advised to avoid travelling on this route until it becomes passable," a traffic police official stated.&nbsp;Snowfall began in several elevated locations, including Gulmarg, Sonamarg, Baltal, Zojila Pass, Razdan Top, Gurez Valley, Sinthan Top, Peer Ki Gali, and Tulail in Gurez Valley. Razdan Top in Bandipora recorded around two inches of snow, while Sonamarg, Baltal, and Zojila Pass saw light accumulation of 1–2 cm. Tulail, Sinthan Top, and Peer Ki Gali also experienced 1–2 cm of snow with light flurries.&nbsp;In Gulmarg — the world-famous ski destination — fresh snow blanketed key spots like Affarwat and the main bowl, boosting its appeal for winter sports. Current temperatures hover between 0°C and 14°C, with several more days of snowfall anticipated in November, setting the stage for enthusiasts.&nbsp;Weather officials predict that the wet spell, featuring light to moderate rain and snow, will persist for the next 8–10 hours before gradually subsiding. Dry conditions are then expected across the Kashmir Valley for 10–15 days, offering relief to lower areas while maintaining vital snow cover in the higher reaches for tourism and water resources.&nbsp;The early onset of winter has thrilled tourists and residents alike, heralding a vibrant season for Kashmir’s snow-draped landscapes. The tourism industry, which suffered a major blow after the Pahalgam terror attack, is now hopeful for a revival in the coming winter season.
