BJP MP calls Owaisi a clown and 'broker of Muslim votes'

BJP MP Arvind Dharmapuri describes AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi a 'clown', who was earlier paid by Congress for his brokerage and now in the paylist of the TRS.

New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP from Nizamabad, Arvind Dharmapuri described the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi a 'clown'. He also said that Owaisi is a "broker of Muslim votes".

Dharmapuri had earlier said that he will hang Owaisi by crane and shave his beard and send it to Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekar Rao.

When asked about the same, Dharmapuri said, "You (Asaduddin Owaisi) look like a clown so you will be hung upside down. Clowns do this in circuses. You are a broker of Muslim votes. Earlier Congress used to pay you more for your brokerage, now TRS pays more."

Earlier, the BJP MP had said, "Asaduddin Owaisi, I warn you that I will hang you upside down by a crane and shave your beard. I will give promotion to your beard by sticking it to the Chief Minister KCR."

"Asaduddin should remember that Nizamabad belongs to BJP. Nine years ago his brother Akbaruddin was stabbed several times and shot by a well-known person known to them. Your brother is still availing treatment for those injuries even after nine years," said Dharmapuri.
