Hyderabad: All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi has condemned the violence reported in different parts of the country during the recent Sri Ram Navami processions and termed these ‘planned attacks’ on minorities.
Accusing the governments in violence-hit States of failing to protect the people, he said it was the constitutional responsibility of any government to protect the people.
“The governments in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Jharkhand, Goa and Karnataka had accorded permission for the procession. However, they failed in preventing violence; I call it State complicit violence. Once again the Muslims were targeted in all these States. The Sangh Parivar has mastered the art of low intensity violence,” he said.
Hitting out at the BJP government in Madhya Pradesh, he said it was earlier State-sponsored violence, and then mob lynching and now it was State-complicit violence.
Asking how elderly Muslim women were attacked and houses demolished without following due legal procedures, Owaisi said 70-year-old women were attacked, their elbows broken and heads smashed by the Madhya Pradesh police.
Condemning the violence in Karauli district of Rajasthan, he said the Congress government of Rajasthan too supported the violence.
To a question on the Madhya Pradesh government bulldozing houses, he said the authorities should have issued a notice to occupants before demolition. “Under what law were the houses were demolished. Only houses of poor Muslims were demolished. There are big illegal buildings. They are deriving sadistic pleasure out of all this,” he said.
To a question on the violence in the Jawaharlal Nehru University, he said if it was all about ‘belief’, the government should ban the export of meat to other countries.
