Majlis Bachao Tehreek (MBT), a political rival of the All India Majlis- E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) in  Telangana on Tuesday alleged that Owaisi brothers are into false claims based on which they have been seeking votes  in Mumbai. Amjad Ullah Khan, spokesperson of MBT in a press conference held at the Marath Patrakar Sangh on Wednesday said that the Muslim community should not get swayed by emotional appeals and that vote thoughtfully. 

AIMIM is making its debut in civic elections this year. "They make big claims that they got government to apologise and even give compensation to Muslim youths who were put in jail. Let me tell you no such thing has happened," said Khan running down other claims of the brothers that include getting back WAKF land for poor, minorities fund, schemes that provide for fees of children from KG to PG among others.

He added, "Asaduddin was the first to give bytes when youths were killed in encounter in MP. A similar case had happened in Hyderabad. Some youths in fact were from the areas that they and their representatives represent. Asaduddin who was fond of taking selfies with Rahul when he was supporting the UPA did not do anything. A man was abused and burnt by police. Akbaruddin, who is calls himself tiger (sher) and his elder brother, Asaduddin who is a bigger tiger (babbar sher) have not met any of the victims or their families," said Khan. 

 

He said that Mecca Masjid which was removed for new airport, several schemes, commission reports in Hyderabad are not tabled or even given to the commission. "He talks of Sacchar and Sri Krishna Commission. What has he done for the commissions that were set up there. He is in power with both the erstwhile Congress and TRS. People have sought details under RTI and even information commission has sought details. What has he done about them. He has never raised any issue about them and talks big here," alleged Khan showing press clippings of various papers to give credit to his allegations. 

Khan and his party have lost elections to AIMIM. He denied allegations that he was set up by rival so AIMIM like the Samajwadi Party. When asked why he raised these issues only before the elections, Khan said, "I do not want community to get swayed by emotional appeals. They have bigger threats here from Sena and RSS as compared to Hyderabad." 

Waris Pathan, AIMIM MLA in city said, "They and their baseless allegations have always been rejected by the people. Moreover, these people have failed to secure deposit in elections several times. Amjad Ullah Khan lost his deposit 10 months back. This kind of baseless false allegations have always been rejected by people." When asked about the paper clippings that Khan showed, Pathan refused to comment on them saying they were false.
