Hyderabad, Jan 16: All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) president Asaduddin Owaisi has said Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is following the ideology of RSS and BJP.
The Hyderabad MP was reacting to AAP’s decision to organise Sundarkand Paths and Hanuman Chalisa in every Assembly constituency of Delhi.
The MP asked AAP leaders as to how different they are from BJP and went on to add that there is no difference between them. Alleging that they are hypocrites, Owaisi said they were following the path of Narendra Modi and resorting to politics of competitive Hindutva.
The AAP has decided to organise recitation of Sundarkand Paths in every Assembly constituency of Delhi on the first Tuesday of every month.
Owaisi wondered if AAP had taken the decision because of the January 22 event. He was referring to the scheduled inauguration of Ram temple at Ayodhya.
Owaisi recalled that AAP leaders had maintained silence on the issue of Bilkis Bano and had said that they only want to talk on issues like education and health. “Is Sunderkand Path a lesson on education or health,” he asked.
The AIMIM leader said the fact is that they want to avoid justice. He alleged that AAP is giving full support to the agenda of the Sangh.
“They don’t want us to talk about Babri (Masjid) but they keep beating the drum of justice, love, etc. and at the same time keep strengthening Hindutva.”
On Congress leaders visiting Ayodhya on Makar Sankranti but declining the invitation to inauguration of Ram temple on January 22, Owaisi asked who will benefit from the politics of confusion they are doing. “Does it help secularism, pluralism, diversity, equality and liberty which the Constitution talks about. You are doing what Modi wants. What is the difference then? This is what our complaint has been and this is what we have been fighting. Then allegations are levelled against us,” he said.
Owaisi urged secular-minded Hindus, Dalits, tribals, OBCs and especially Muslims to see what parties like Congress and AAP are doing. “I am not responsible for this,” he added.
