Hyderabad: The Majlis Bachao Tehreek (MBT) has announced that it will openly support and even work for its arch rival Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM), if its president Asaduddin Owaisi or his younger brother Akbaruddin Owaisi accepts the challenge of State BJP President G Kishan Reddy for a contest from Amberpet Assembly constituency.

Addressing a public meeting at Sarfekhaz Phaltan under Malakpet Assembly Constituency on Saturday, MBT leader Amjed Ullah Khan said the MIM leadership should accept the challenge of Kishan Reddy. "We will not only extend support, but will also work hard to ensure the victory of MIM candidate against BJP President," he said.

However, he doubted the sincerity of Owaisi brothers and said that the MIM leadership was lowering the prestige of Muslim community by avoiding this challenge. Amjed Ullah Khan pointed out that the MIM leadership made several provocative statements in regard to illegal Bhagya Laxmi Temple which would indirectly damage the image of Muslims. Similarly, they challenged BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi to come to Hyderabad. Although Modi came and addressed a public meeting, the MIM leaders remained silent and did not even organize a single protest. Similarly, Asaduddin challenged Modi to contest from Hyderabad seat. In response, Kishan Reddy challenged Asad Owaisi to contest from Amberpet. He said that instead of keeping quiet, Owaisis should accept the challenge and defeat Kishan Reddy if the really cared for the prestige of Muslim community.

The MBT leader ridiculed the "Best MLA" award given to Malakpet legislator Ahmed Bin Abdullah Balala by a private firm. He said that the conditions in Malakpet Assembly Constituency had deteriorated in the last five years. Many government schools which were operating from private buildings for the last 50 years had either vanished or were in a bad condition. Parks and playgrounds in the said constituency were encroached upon by the politically backed mafia, he alleged.
