Speaking in Chicago, USA, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi compared India to the events in Germany in the 1930s. He said that the ‘X Mark’ made on Muslim houses in Uttarkashi, what happened in Germany in the 1930s is taking place in today’s India. He has also retaliated on the Aurangzeb photo controversy.
Addressing Edison, Illinois in Chicago, Owaisi further said, he does not want genocide in the country he loves. India is already in the second stage, he said, citing the comments of Professor Gregory Stanton, who predicted the Rwandan genocide.
At the same time, on Aurangzeb’s photo controversy, Owaisi said that some media people asked me to speak on this issue and I told them that of course I will speak on it, but first you confirm to me that this is Aurangzeb’s photo. He said it could be his image, I said what can I do if it could be Aurangzeb’s photo.
He said that if someone lifts Tipu Sultan’s picture, a case is filed against that person, earlier Hindutva forces used to call Muslims ‘Babur ki Auladin’ (Babur’s children), now they have graduated to Aurangzeb and his Later maybe they will target us by taking the name of Tipu Sultan. There is an atmosphere of competitive communalism in India.
