Fight against me: Asaduddin Owaisi dares Rahul Gandhi to contest polls from Hyderabad

While addressing a public gathering in Hyderabad on Sunday, All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi challenged Congress MP Rahul Gandhi to contest elections from Hyderabad and not Wayanad in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

Referring to the demolition of the Babri Masjid, Owaisi made a sharp attack on Congress saying that it was demolished under the regime of the grand old party.

“I am challenging your leader (Rahul Gandhi) to contest elections from Hyderabad and not Wayanad. You keep giving big statements, come to the ground and fight against me. People from Congress will say a lot of things, but I am ready…Babri Masjid and Secretariat’s mosque were demolished under the Congress regime…” he said.

Notably, Congress and AIMIM will combat against each other in Telangana as both the parties will try to out reach in the upcoming state’s assembly elections, which are scheduled this year.

I am fighting alone against PM Modi: Asaduddin Owaisi

AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi also added, “BJP leaders keep saying that two of our MPs voted against Women’s Reservation Bill. 450 MPs voted for and only 2 voted against the bill…When everyone said 450 MPs were against me, I told the entire country that Congress and BJP are together, Samajwadi (Party) and Congress are also together. I am fighting against PM Modi alone and you are all together…”

Referring to Women’s Reservation Bill, Owaisi lashed out at Congress, Samajwadi Party and RJD saying that they are against the women. He said, “…Leaders from Congress, Samajwadi Party and Lalu Yadav’s party (RJD) are scared of taking the names of Muslims in the Parliament. I stood up and said the Muslim and OBC women should also get reservations…They keep telling me that I am against women, but the truth is that you are against women, OBCs and Muslims…”

Notably, all the political parties are not leaving any stone unturned to stand out in the upcoming Telangana Assembly polls.
