All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul Muslimeen (AIMIM) President and three-time Member of Parliament (MP) from the Hyderabad constituency in Lok Sabha Asaduddin Owaisi, a firebrand politician, is known to stoke communal conflagrations in sensitive areas.

He recently said:

“Aap karen to kuch nahi, par hum jab green pehnenge to pura harakarenge ..insha allah… aur hamare hare rang ke aage koi rang nahi tikega, na Modi ka rang, na Congress ka, kisi ka rang nahi khali hamararang rahega…hara, hara, hara…(When you use saffron colour then it’s okay but when we will wear green we will do it fully god willing and no other colour will last in front of our green colour. Neither Modi’s colour nor Congress’s colour only our green colour will prevail.)”

A video is now viral which shows some youth creating ruckus outside Owaisi’s house in Delhi and hoisting saffron flag.

It seems that the youth, seemingly provoked by Owaisi’s green color statement, is trying to show that saffron is synonymous with Indian spirit.



Apart from raising slogans, the youth also pasted a poster (which has ‘Bhagwa-e-Hind’ written on it) outside Owaisi’s house.

Watch the video here:

Owaisi is known for routine inflammatory speeches in and outside their respective constituencies. Last year he declared that he will not chant Bharat Mata Ki Jai “even if you put a knife to my throat.” Owaisi’s statements have drawn sharp criticism across political lines.

BJP leader Subramanian Swamy had earlier said during a debate: “I won’t call Asaduddin Owaisi a traitor. But he is surely an anti-national. He is a rashtravidrohi.”
