'Conduct Surgical Strike On China, If You Have Guts': Asaduddin Owaisi Challenges BJP

Targeting BJP's Bandi Sanjay, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi said, "They say a surgical strike will be done in the old city. Conduct a surgical strike on China if you have guts."

All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Tuesday challenged the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) to carry out a surgical strike on China instead of on the Old City in Hyderabad. His remarks came in response to state chief Bandi Sanjay's claim that the BJP will launch a "surgical strike in Telangana's Old City".
 
According to an ANI report, earlier, addressing a public meeting, Bandi Sanjay said the ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and AIMIM Chief Owaisi were trying to win the GHMC polls with the help of Rohingya, Pakistani, and Afghan voters. While campaigning for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation polls, Sanjay said "GHMC polls should be conducted without voters from Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Rohingyas. We will conduct a surgical strike in Old City once we win the polls,".

Addressing a public meeting in Sangareddy on Tuesday, invoking the remarks of Sanjay, the AIMIM chief said, "They say a surgical strike will be done in the old city. Do a surgical strike on China if you have guts." 

Owaisi also hit out at Union Home Minister Amit Shah over his claim of a covert understanding between AIMIM chief Asadusddin Owaisi and BRS chief K Chandrashekar Rao, saying, "Why do you (Amit Shah) feel the pain, if the steering is in my hand?" He said, "Crores were approved for temples, and he (Amit Shah) says the steering is in my hand. If the steering is in my hand, then why do you feel the pain?"
 
Earlier, on April 23, addressing the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) 'Sankalp Sabha' at Chevella in Karnataka, Shah alleged connivance between AIMIM chief Asadusddin Owaisi and KCR. He said, "A government whose steering wheel is with Majlis (Owaisi), can never run Telangana. We are not afraid of the Majlis, Majlis is a compulsion for you (BRS), not for the BJP. The government of Telangana should work for the people of the state, not for Owaisi."
