There is not a single month that goes by without Muslims being threatened to kill, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi today said taking a jibe at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led central government in the Lok Sabha.

“An MP from the ruling party said, ‘don’t use knives just for vegetables but also to sever the necks (of Muslims)’. Another MP from the party said in Delhi to socially boycott Muslims. The green colour was removed at Kalburgi railway station citing it as a colour of Muslims. I’d like to ask would the Narendra Modi government expunge the green colour from the national flag?” the AIMIM president asked in the Parliament.
