"I want to know from the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, it there something they know and the country does not. Is the Supreme Court going to give judgment in their favour? Who is going to write the judgment? Is it the supreme court or the court of the prime minister and Shah," Owaisi said.

"He has some kind of obsession against the BJP and Amit Shah who is the president of the party," Sambit Patra said.
