Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi’s official residence in Delhi on Thursday was vandalised with black ink by some unknown miscreants. Black ink was splattered on his house in the national capital, marking yet another attack on his Delhi residence.
In a strongly worded statement via a X post, Owaisi expressed his frustration and concern over the repeated attacks. “I have now lost count of the number of times my Delhi residence has been targeted. When I asked Delhi Police officials how this was happening right under their nose, they expressed helplessness,” he stated.
It is pertinent to mention that AIMIM MP has been in controversy for the past few days for raising the ‘Jai Palestine’ slogan during the oath-taking ceremony in Parliament.
The MP referred to his discussion with Delhi Police officials, who reportedly indicated their inability to prevent such incidents from occurring right under their supervision.
“Some ‘unknown miscreants’ vandalized my house with black ink today. I have now lost count of the number of times my Delhi residence has been targeted. When I asked Delhi Police officials how this was happening right under their nose, they expressed helplessness”, he said.
Owaisi directly addressed the authorities, calling out Home Minister Amit Shah and Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. “Amit Shah, this is happening under your oversight. Om Birla, please tell us if MPs’ safety will be guaranteed or not,” he demanded.
The AIMIM leader did not mince words when addressing the perpetrators of the attack. “To the two-bit goons who keep targeting my house: this does not scare me. Stop this Savarkar-type cowardly behaviour and be men enough to face me. Do not scurry away after throwing some ink or pelting a few stones,” Owaisi asserted.
According to the Delhi Police, a passerby sprayed black paint on the nameplate of Owaisi’s house and quickly left. CCTV footage captured his image. A complaint has been filed regarding this incident, and authorities are currently taking further action.
