TIL Desk/National/Aurangabad/ Lok Sabha MP and AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi has attacked the BJP government, saying while it speaks about Mahatma Gandhi, it has his assassin Nathuram Godse who they have in mind. The All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM) leader claimed that the ruling party consider Godse as their “hero”.
“We are celebrating the 150th birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. The present BJP government has Nathuram Godse in its mind and Mahatma Gandhi in its words,” Me Owaisi claimed.”The BJP is running its shop in the name of Gandhi. This government is bluffing the entire country with the name of Gandhiji,” the Hyderabad MP alleged.
Mr Owaisi was addressing a public rally in support of AIMIM candidates in Aurangabad ahead of the October 21 assembly elections in Maharashtra. He said AIMIM Lok Sabha candidate Imtiyaz Jaleel won from Aurangabad in May because he received support from Muslims, Buddhists, Dalits and Hindus who believe in secularism. It was a historic win for the Hyderabad-based AIMIM, Mr Owaisi said.
