Owaisi slams BJP for Indore deaths

Taking a dig at the BJP Hyderabad MP and AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, Thursday said that those who always claim to be Vishwaguru cannot provide even the basic amenity of clean drinking water to the people, even in 2026. Owaisi was speaking about the deaths in Indore due to the consumption of contaminated water in the constituency of BJP leader and housing minister, Kailash Vijayvargiya.

Speaking about the seven deaths that took place in Indore due to contamination of drinking water, Asaduddin Owaisi tore into the BJP government, accusing it of bulldozing Muslim homes while failing in all other aspects of governance. He said, “These people are concerned only with the bulldozer and want to just demolish homes. If the allegations are against Muslims, they are beaten up, and their homes are demolished.”

The MP came down heavily on the BJP government in MP for failing that basic amenity that is expected by the citizens from their elected government. “Their (BJP) government is unable to provide basic amenities that people need, such as clean drinking water. This is a huge failure of the Madhya Pradesh government. We are in 2026, and we claim that we are now Vishwaguru and on the other hand, people are dying due to contaminated water. These (BJP) people should drown themselves in a handful of water. These people who always use bulldozers or talk about encounters must answer now,” said Owaisi.

He also slammed the BJP government in UP and the Centre over the distribution of arms to households by right-wing groups and the attack in Bareilly during a birthday party. He said if the man distributing arms in the locality did not belong to any majoritarian groups, then he would have been charged under the dreaded UAPA. He accused the Centre of being a mute spectator to such incidents and pointed out that in the case of Bareilly, it was the invitees to the party who were charged as guilty by the police.
