Nov 11, 2021

Moradabad (UP), Nov 12 (ANI): AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on November 11 said Congress and Mohammed Ali Jinnah were responsible for the partition of India and not the Muslims. Owaisi said, "I challenge people of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Samajwadi Party (SP) who do not read (history). Partition did not happen due to Muslims but due to Jinnah. At that time, only those Muslims could vote who were influential like nawabs or degree holders. Congress and leaders of that time were responsible for partition." Owaisi's statement came a day after Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party chief OP Rajbhar gave statement that there would have been no partition had Mohammed Ali Jinnah been made the first Prime Minister of India.
