Hyderabad parliamentarian Asaduddin Owaisi on Thursday warned the Centre against taking the country back to the 1990s, a decade which saw significant communal conflagration and demanded that they state clearly in the Supreme Court their commitment to uphold the Places of Worship Act (Special Provisions Act), 1991.
The All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) president listed in the Parliament 11 reasons for supporting the no-confidence motion.
“The 1991 Places of Worship Act was passed in this House so that the scabs of history would not be picked on. But you are picking on them. I am warning you. Do not take the country back to the 90s. Say in the Supreme Court that your government stands by the Act,” he demanded.
