PM Modi never speaks on 2 things – rise in petrol and diesel prices and China sitting in our territory in Ladakh says Chief Asaduddin Owaisi.
“Our Soldiers Have Died. Will You Play T20?” Asaduddin Owaisi hits out at the prime minister and questions his silence on the Chinese aggression at the Indian border, rise in fuel prices and also the J&K killings voicing this at a public meeting in Hyderabad on Monday.
#WATCH | PM Modi never speaks on 2 things — rise in petrol and diesel prices & China sitting in our territory in Ladakh. PM is afraid of speaking on China. Our 9 soldiers died (in J&K) & on Oct 24 India-Pakistan T20 match will happen: AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, in Hyderabad pic.twitter.com/Q0AabFZ0BU

Asaduddin Owaisi said “When Pakistan attacked Pulwama, PM Modi said ‘ghar me ghuske marenge’ (we will hit the enemy inside their territory). Now China is sitting in our backyard and he is doing nothing,” he charged.
Owaisi also hit out at the Centre over the recent terror activity in Jammu and Kashmir, which saw the killings of civilians in separate incidents and the death of nine Army personnel during counter-terrorism operations last week.
“Our nine soldiers died [in J&K] and on October 24, the India-Pakistan T20 match will happen,” the AIMIM president jibed, echoing the growing chorus for the cancellation of the match in the wake of the terror strikes in Kashmir.
Asaduddin Owaisi, while talking about the series of targeted civilian killings in Kashmir, said that is it a failure of the BJP-led Centre. “Poor workers of Bihar are being killed, targeted killing is being done, what is the Intelligence Bureau and (Union Home Minister) Amit Shah doing? This is a failure of the Centre,” he said.
A street hawker from Bihar and a labourer from Uttar Pradesh were killed in two back-to-back attacks by terrorists in the Srinagar and Pulwama districts of Jammu and Kashmir on Saturday.
The situation in Jammu and Kashmir is tense as terrorists continue to target civilians in brutal attacks. As many as 11 killings took place in the last fortnight, with two non-local labourers from Bihar gunned down by militants in Kulgam on Sunday. The United Liberation Front has claimed responsibility for the attack as well as the ISWH (ISIS) in Kashmir.
A few days ago, Owaisi had questioned PM Modi’s silence on the Lakhimpur Kheri violence and the atrocities committed against minorities in BJP-ruled states.
