Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi on Saturday condemned the incident in Muzaffarnagar in which a teacher directed students to physically assault their fellow Muslim student, and blamed the BJP’s policies for religious animosity infiltrating into educational institutions and teachers.
In statement live-streamed on social media, Mr.Owaisi said that the incident reminded him of the situation of Germany in the 1930s were Jewish children were humiliated, and wondered whether people were waiting for the equivalent of the Kristallnacht when the Nazis embarked on a pogrom of the Jews.
Earlier on Saturday, the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen president condemned the incident on X, formerly Twitter.
