AIMIM MP Imtiaz Jaleel has stirred politics by saying that his party may join hands with Shiv Sena-led ruling Maha Vikas Aghadi to prevent BJP from coming to power. He says that he will take time to meet CM Uddhav Thackeray. He is also our CM. I am sure he will agree and then I will present before him a proposal of friendship with the MVA alliance.
Aurangabad MP Jalil said that his party is not the B team of BJP. On the question of being a supporter of Aurangzeb, he said that no Muslim bows his head in front of any grave. Aurangzeb may or may not be acceptable to you, but the fact is that he ruled the country. He said that we have a custom here that even if the grave belongs to the enemy, bow your head in front of him. On Aurangzeb’s dome in his constituency, he said that it has no meaning. Muslim people also like Shivaji.
Keep in mind that CM Uddhav Thackeray had outrightly rejected the talk of an alliance with Owaisi’s party. After that Sanjay Raut had targeted and said that Maha Vikas Aghadi is an alliance of three parties, there is no place for any fourth partner in it. The Rajya Sabha MP also accused AIMIM of secretly supporting the BJP. He said these things while rejecting Jalil’s offer. The AIMIM had won two seats in the 2019 assembly elections.
Sanjay Raut had rejected Jalil’s suggestion saying that those who bow before Aurangzeb’s tomb cannot be acceptable to Maharashtra. Meanwhile, former Shiv Sena MP Chandrakant Khaire alleged that Devendra Fadnavis was behind MIMIM’s offer to join hands with MVA. He said that the BJP wants Owaisi to join the MVA, so that people get angry with the Shiv Sena, which runs on Hindutva, and the alliance should be disintegrated.
Former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis hit out at Shiv Sena over Jalil’s statement, saying that the possibility of an alliance between Shiv Sena and MIMIM cannot be ruled out. Shiv Sena has started azaan competition and it is also saying sir Balasaheb Thackeray.
