Owaisi Questions: What If the Person Who Threw a Shoe at  CJI Was a Muslim?

admin October 8, 2025 National

‘New Delhi’Oct’08 (PMI): All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi has strongly criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his government over the alleged attempt to attack the Chief Justice of India (CJI).

Owaisi accused the government of showing bias based on religion and being lenient in action against lawyer Rakesh Kumar, who allegedly tried to attack Chief Justice B.R. Gavai.

Speaking at a public gathering, Owaisi said:

“If the lawyer’s name was not Rakesh Kumar but Asad, what would have happened? BJP leaders would have shouted — ‘Arrest him!’, ‘He came from a neighboring country!’, ‘He is an agent of Pakistan’s ISI!’ Then he would have been attacked from all sides.”

He further alleged that both the Delhi Police and the central government are exhibiting double standards based on religious identity in this case.

Owaisi compared the incident to a recent event in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh, where the Muslim community protested against the removal of an “I Love Muhammad” banner. He said the UP police acted immediately in that case, but no such action was taken against Rakesh Kumar.

According to Owaisi, Rakesh Kumar, in his complaint, referred to the Bareilly incident, stating that the Chief Justice and the Supreme Court should not have criticized UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s bulldozer justice policy.(Report: PMI News Desk)

Opposition parties opposing women’s quota, delimitation for politics: Kishan Reddy New Delhi, April 17 (PMI): Union Minister G Kishan Reddy on Friday accused the opposition parties of resisting the Women’s Reservation and Delimitation Bills for political mileage. Talking to newsmen, he asserted that the Centre’s proposed formula ensures fairness to all states, rejecting claims of injustice to southern regions. Reddy alleged that parties fear losing dominance if new leadership emerges through reservations and constituency changes. He also criticized regional parties for spreading “false propaganda” and called for a public debate on the issue. “Speaking in the Lok Sabha, the Prime Minister, the Home Minister, and the Central Government delivered a very clear message that no state would suffer any injustice whatsoever. Unlike the manner in which the delimitation was conducted when the Congress party was in power, we are introducing a Bill that is favorable and acceptable to all, ensuring equitable justice for every state. Despite this, the opposition continues to engage in false propaganda within Parliament. Citing census data, they claimed that the population in the South was declining and that the region would be penalized for having successfully implemented family planning measures. Initially, their argument was that if the constituency delimitation were to be undertaken following the census, the South would inevitably face injustice. However, today, recognizing the sentiments of the people and ensuring that the number of seats in the South does not diminish, the Modi government has introduced a formula involving a 50% increase”, he noted. Further, Kishan Reddy alleged that from the very beginning, it has been a calculated conspiracy by the Majlis party to ensure that the women are denied any form of political reservation. Statements made by Majlis party leaders specifically Akbaruddin Owaisi suggesting that the entry of the women into politics would give rise to new complications and problems, are officially recorded in the Assembly records. Fearing that a delimitation of constituencies in Hyderabad could jeopardize their own seats, the Majlis party is now conspiring in tandem with both the Congress and the BRS parties . Having held consultations with these two parties, the Majlis party is actively campaigning against both the proposed delimitation and the provision of Women’s reservations”, he remarked. (PMI)
