Before the West Bengal elections, a round of allegations and counter-allegations has started between political parties. In the election rally organized in support of Humayun Kabir-led AJUP candidates, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi fiercely targeted TMC Chief Mamata Banerjee. He alleged that the ruling Trinamool Congress and other parties used Muslims in West Bengal as vote banks but did nothing for the development of the community.
Mamta and PM Modi are real brothers and sisters: Owaisi
In the rally in Murshidabad, Owaisi said that PM Modi and CM Mamata Banerjee are brother and sister. He said, ‘Mamata Banerjee does drama to get votes on Eid day. There is no love in the heart. Just want to get our votes. PM Modi and Mamata Banerjee are like brother and sister. Are one from within. They talk like this to get our votes. If you do not have a leader by your vote, you will be kept dumb. You will be pressed, crushed.
Will not bow before Mamata: Owaisi
Asaduddin Owaisi said, ‘There is no difference between PM Modi and Mamata Banerjee. They do not want independent leadership of the poor to emerge. If you want to trust then trust Owaisi and Humayun Kabir. I want to ask TMC, how did BJP become so strong? I want to tell the people of Murshidabad and Bengal that our fight is to create Muslim leadership. We are not against Hindu brothers. We want participation. We will not bow our heads before TMC or Mamata. We will not be afraid of Modi.
What did Owaisi say about Humayun Kabir?
Owaisi also claimed that in the last 50 years, the Muslim community voted for Congress, Left Front and Trinamool Congress, but there has been no improvement in their condition. He said, ‘We have joined hands with Humayun Kabir to provide greater representation to Muslims in political decision making and their real development in West Bengal. Together we will give a huge blow to Mamata Banerjee and her party.
