Hyderabad:
MIM president Asaduddin Owaisi has demanded a probe into all bomb
blasts in India after the razing of the Babri Masjid in 1992.
Saying he suspected the involvement of Hindutva forces, the
Hyderabad MP referred to Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde's
statement that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Rashtriya
Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) were spreading terrorism in the country.
Addressing a massive rally on the occasion of Milad-un-Nabi early
Friday, he attacked BJP leader L.K. Advani for meeting Prime
Minister Manmohan Singh to defend Pragya Thakur and other accused
in bomb cases.
Owaisi alleged that the BJP and RSS were targeting Shinde as he
was a Dalit. The Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) chief said his
party was ready to work for unity among Muslims and Dalits.
"I am looking forward to the day when we will have leaders like
Mayawati and Mulayam Singh in Andhra Pradesh. We will work with
them," he said.
Thousands attended the meeting at the MIM headquarters which
continued till about 12.30 a.m.
Owaisi clarified that his party was not against Hindus or Hinduism
but against Hindutva forces and the Sangh Parivar.
He accused the Congress government in Andhra Pradesh of targeting
him, his younger brother Akbaruddin Owaisi and other MIM leaders
due to personal vendetta. He vowed to defeat Congress in the next
elections.
Owaisi accused the government of adopting double standards while
dealing with the alleged provocative speeches.
"You have charged Akbar Owaisi with sedition but not Swami (Kamlananda
Bharati). You did not even oppose Swami's bail. You never arrested
Praveen Togadia (booked for making provocative remarks in
Hyderabad)," he said.
Akbar Owaisi, lodged in a jail in Adilabad, has been charged with
sedition, waging war against the nation and promoting enmity
between people.
Asad Owaisi said Akbar was a political prisoner and accused the
government of harassing him and playing with his life by making
him travel from one town to other despite ill-health.
The MIM chief, released from jail Thursday in a seven-year-old
case in Medak district, said they would not be cowed down by
criminal cases.
