India is my father’s country, none can force me to flee: Owaisi
India is my fathers country Nobody can force me flee, was how MIM president Asaduddin Owaisi reacted to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanaths comment that if the BJP comes to power in Telangana, Owaisi will have to flee It is my religious belief that Prophet Adam, when he descended on the Earth from Paradise, came to India
Hyderabad: "India is my father's country. Nobody can force me flee," was how MIM president Asaduddin Owaisi reacted to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's comment that if the BJP comes to power in Telangana, Owaisi will have to flee. "It is my religious belief that Prophet Adam, when he descended on the Earth from Paradise, came to India.
Thus, India is my father's country, and nobody can force me flee," the Hyderabad MP told an election rally on Sunday night. Speaking at an election rally of BJP earlier at Tandur, Adityanath had said that if his party came to power in Telangana, Owaisi will have to flee the way the Nizams had to flee Hyderabad.
Owaisi said the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister was ignorant of the history as the Nizams did not flee Hyderabad. "Nizam Mir Osman Ali Khan did not flee Hyderabad. He was made 'Raj Pramukh' and when there was war with China, he offered his gold to India," he said.
The MP said he would not be scared by such threats and propaganda. "This is only Yogi's speech but the language and mentality is of Prime Minister Narendra Modi," he said. Owaisi said Yogi should speak like a chief minister and uphold the dignity of the office he is holding. He suggested that the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister should first take care of his constituency where 150 children die of encephalitis every year. Meanwhile, Asaduddin Owaisi's younger brother Akbaruddin Owaisi has also reacted strongly to Adityanath's threat, saying nobody can force them to flee. "We are not the ones who will flee. Our 1,000 generations will live here," the AIMIM leader said at a public meeting.
