New Delhi: Asaduddin Owaisi’s declaration of “Jai Palestine” during his parliamentary oath ceremony has stirred considerable political controversy, prompting calls from BJP leaders for his disqualification from Parliament.
Owaisi, a five-time MP from the AIMIM, delivered his oath in Urdu, concluding with the slogans “Jai Bheem, Jai Meem, Jai Telangana, Jai Palestine. Takbeer, Allah-u-Akbar.”
This reference to Palestine, amidst ongoing conflict in the region, sparked immediate backlash from ruling party members.
