New delhi date. Monday, March 14, 2021

AIMIM president and MP Asaduddin Owaisi has once again made a controversial statement. He has questioned the ongoing encounter by the UP police.

"Ever since the BJP government came to power in UP, 37 per cent of those killed have been Muslims, while the state has a Muslim population of 19 per cent," Owaisi said while addressing a public meeting in UP.

"Yogi Adityanath has left no stone unturned in upholding the rule of law. Yogi speaks of only one religion. Since the Yogi government came to power in UP, there have been 6457 encounters and 37 per cent of those killed have been Muslims," ​​Owaisi said. But why such atrocities are happening. The Chief Minister of UP, the largest state in the country, says, shoot.

It may be mentioned here that Assembly elections are to be held in UP next year and Owaisi's party is also expected to get involved in it. Owaisi has already started preparations for this. Owaisi has adopted a strategy of allying with smaller parties in UP for the elections.
