PM Modi silent on China’s intrusions, says Owaisi

At a time when the country is celebrating 75 years of independence, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has not done anything about China’s intrusions, Hyderabad Parliamentarian Asaduddin Owaisi said.

Mr. Owaisi was speaking at a public meeting late on August 12 night to celebrate the 75th year of Independence and to reiterate the contribution of Muslims and the ulama (Muslims clergy) in the freedom struggle. He also said that the first journalist to be martyred and who used the might of the pen against the British was Moulvi Muhammad Baqar.

He said that 75 years of freedom is a joyous occasion, reiterated sacrifices of Muslims and described their struggle as a luminous past which the country must accept.
