Begusarai (Bihar) [India], September 26 (ANI): Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Friday slammed AIMIM Chief Asaduddin Owaisi, accusing him of inciting Muslims and stating that Owaisi, along with Congress, wants “civil war” in India.
Speaking with ANI, Giriraj Singh said, “He is a leader of Muslims. He incites Muslims. He and Congress want civil war and nothing else. They are in favour of the Gazwa-e-Hind and want to balkanise the country. This is not going to happen. Our ancestors had made a mistake. Had they thrown out people like Owaisi back in 1948 to Pakistan and had the Hindus from Pakistan been brought here, he wouldn’t have been born here.”
Singh’s remark came ahead of Owaisi’s election rally in Begusarai. The AIMIM chief is on a visit to Bihar from September 24 to September 27 to gather support for his party.
Earlier, Giriraj Singh alleged that Owaisi is holding rallies in Bihar to protect the infiltrators.
Speaking to ANI on Tuesday, Singh claimed that after Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav’s ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’, Owaisi’s four-day visit is aimed at saving Bangladeshi and Rohingya immigrants.
He said, “A few days ago, Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav had undertaken a journey regarding SIR, meaning to protect the infiltrators. Now Owaisi is coming… These people are coming to save all the Bangladeshis and Rohingyas.”
Further, Singh noted that the NDA government in Bihar has worked for the Muslim community by erecting fences around graveyards and providing financial assistance.
“As far as Muslims are concerned, what Nitish Kumar and Narendra Modi have done for Muslims has never happened in the country till today. Apart from Nitish Kumar, did Lalu ji do the fencing for graveyards? Gave a stipend to Muslim girls and boys? What justice will they offer? They are coming to instigate,” he said.
Bihar is set to undergo Legislative Assembly polls later this year; however, the Election Commission has not yet announced the date. (ANI)
