Patna (Bihar) [India], April 3 (ANI): Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha on Friday accused All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) President Asaduddin Owaisi of disrupting social harmony, spreading negativity, and nurturing a mindset harmful to society's fabric.

'There is no need to discuss Owaisi's remarks. Such people break social harmony, spread negativity, and nurture a mindset that damages the very fabric of society,' Sinha said.

Sinha was responding to Owaisi's earlier remarks in which he said, 'Those who wanted to finish us, listen, we are alive, Miya is alive, as long as the world exists, we won't be afraid.'

Earlier on Thursday, Asaduddin Owaisi appealed to voters, especially from the Muslim community, to support the All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) in the upcoming Assam assembly polls. He also alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government was indulging in unconstitutional and unlawful discrimination.

He accused the BJP of discriminatory actions and alleged that the Indian National Congress has also failed to raise its voice effectively on the issue.

Addressing a gathering, Owaisi said, 'We appeal to all voters, particularly those from the Muslim minority, that in this situation, where the BJP is engaging in unconstitutional and unlawful discrimination, having evicted 50,000 Muslims, and the Congress party lacks the courage to speak out, it is essential that you vote for AIUDF to ensure your voice is heard in the assembly.'Owaisi emphasised that supporting AIUDF would help strengthen the representation of minority voices in the state assembly.

He urged support for Badruddin Ajmal's AIUDF to safeguard the rights of Muslims affected by alleged demolitions during his two-day visit to poll-bound Assam.

'More than 50,000 Muslims' houses have been demolished, leaving them homeless. In such a situation, it is very important to support Badaruddin Ajmal so that the constitutional rights of those people can be protected,' he said.

Assam will witness a fight between the incumbent BJP-led NDA government and Congress for the 126-seat assembly.

The BJP is contesting the elections with Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) and Bodoland People's Front (BPF). The NDA will look to secure a third consecutive term, while the Congress aims to defeat the ruling party to return to power. (ANI)
