New Delhi: AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi has trained guns at Home Minister Amit Shah and has challenged the Home Minister to name 1000 Rohingyas by this evening, after a BJP leader had claimed that 30,000 Rohingya had succeeded in getting listed as voters.

“If there're 30,000 Rohingyas in electoral list, what is Home Minister Amit Shah doing? Is he sleeping?,” quipped Owaisi.

“Isn't this his job to see how are 30-40 thousand Rohingyas listed? If BJP is honest, it should show 1,000 such names by tomorrow evening,” he said.

Their intention is to create hatred. This fight is between Hyderabad and Bhagyanagar. It is your responsibility now to decide who will win, he said.

BJP MP and the party's youth wing president Tejaswi Surya on Monday lambasted the AIMIM, describing its president Asaduddin Owaisi as the new ''avatar'' of Mohammed Ali Jinnah. He said that the only thing Owaisi brothers have allowed in old Hyderabad is Rohingya Muslims

“Laughable that Akabaruddin & Asaduddin Owaisi are speaking of development. They haven't allowed development in old Hyderabad, the only thing they allowed is Rohingya Muslims. Every single vote to Owaisi is a vote against India and everything that India stands for,” Surya was quoted as saying bynews agency ANI.

The war or words has escalated ahead of the GHMC polls which will be witnessing a triangular fight between the TRS, BJP and AIMIM.
