Shiva Sena leader and editor of the party’s mouthpiece Samna, has commented in his recent article that the voting rights of Muslims should be withdrawn for some years as the Muslim minority has often been used to play vote bank policies.
According to the reports, MP Sanjay Raut has also compares All India Majlis-e-ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) leaders, Asaduddin and Akbaruddin Owaisi to poisonous snakes who have been misguiding the Muslims without really helping them.
“If Muslims are only being used this way to play politics, then they can never develop. Muslims will have no future till they are used to play vote bank politics and thus Balasaheb had once said to withdraw Muslims voting rights. What he said is right,” Shiva Sena leader Sanjay Raut said on Sunday.
The Rajya Sabha member commented in the article that Balasaheb had demanded 15 years ago that if the voting rights of Muslims minority are withdrawn for a few years, then the game of vote bank politics will end forever.
He added that vote bank politics is played in the name of providing justice to Muslims. Their educational and health status is being misused and deprived of overall development.
Shiv Sena spokesperson Gorhe said that t heir party included people from all religions and all of them have been against the vote bank politics being played in the name of Muslims against Muslims.
Earlier while commenting at AIMM chief Asaduddin Owaisi for fighting for reservation for Muslims in Maharashtra, Sanjya Raut had said that if the minority leader really wanted justice on religious grounds, then he should migrate to Pakistan and see that his demands are met there.
Claiming Owaisi’s demands as ‘hateful’, the party said that the Devendra Fadnavis government should book a case against him and take legal actions. The Samna added that the Muslims must respect motherland India.
According to Owaisi, he is supporting Muslims because they have suffered a lot. But will he also support Hindus who were the victims of the terrorist activities of extremist Muslims? If antisocial social elements start communal violence after attending his meetings… then Owaisi’s speeches should be considered as hateful and he should be legally punished.
In his recent speech in Nagpur, the 45-year old Lok Sabha MP Owaisi had demanded reservation for minority Muslims in government jobs and educational institutions in Maharashtra. He also said that the Congress rule at the center and Shiv Sena-BJP government in the stat were responsible for the under development of minority community members.
