All-India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi on May 28 hit out at Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) for its comparison of the new Parliament building with a coffin questioning the need of the Bihar-based party for bringing in "this angle".
He also said that it would have been better if the new building was inaugurated by the Lok Sabha speaker Om Birla and not Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
"RJD has no stand, sometimes they speak about secularism and make Nitish Kumar, who came out of BJP, their chief minister. The old Parliament building did not even have clearance from Delhi Fire Service. Why are they (RJD) calling the Parliament a coffin? They could have said anything else, why do they need to bring this angle?," said AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi while talking to ANI.
