NRC a pain for minorities, says Owaisi

-

HYDERABAD: AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi on Thursday hit out at the NDA government­s plan to conduct NRC across the country, alleging that the exercise is only going to cause hardship to people, especially minorities and ‘the weak’.

Khoda pahaad, nikla chooha. Now BJP wants to disown it, but find one all over India,” the AIMIM chief tweeted.The proverb suggests a big effort for little gain. Literally, it means finding a mouse after digging a mountain. “Modi wants all Indians to yet again stand in line, detaining undocument­ed Indians and leaving minorities and the weak at the mercy of babus. Nowhere in the world are people put through such hardship,” he said.
