Owaisi Criticizes BJP and Opposition for Ignoring Muslims and Questions Bangladeshi Infiltration Claims
AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi attacks BJP and Home Minister Amit Shah over claims of Bangladeshi infiltrators in Bihar. He accuses the government of dog-whistling against Muslims, highlights the BJP's exclusion of Muslim candidates, and questions the foreign policy allowing former Bangladeshi PM Sheikh Hasina to stay in India. Owaisi also criticizes the Bihar opposition for sidelining Muslims from top posts and calls for Muslim representation.
During election rallies in Bihar, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi launched strong attacks against the BJP and Home Minister Amit Shah, challenging their repeated claims about Bangladeshi infiltration in Bihar. Owaisi questioned the existence of infiltration, noting government agencies have not found infiltrators despite extensive voter list revisions. He referenced the presence of former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in India, accusing the Modi government of hypocrisy given its rhetoric against infiltrators. Furthermore, Owaisi criticized the BJP for not fielding Muslim candidates in the Bihar assembly elections and condemned the opposition INDIA bloc for excluding AIMIM and denying Muslims significant political roles like the chief ministership or deputy chief minister post. He called out mainstream parties like Congress, RJD, and Samajwadi Party for exploiting Muslim votes without delivering representation. Owaisi appealed to Muslim voters to support AIMIM for genuine representation, also addressing issues like Muslim personal laws and Waqf legislation. His campaign focuses on Muslim-majority regions in Bihar, highlighting longstanding neglect by both ruling and opposition parties and demanding justice and real political inclusion for Muslims in the state.
