NEW DELHI: Citing example of refugees from Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka residing in India, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Friday tore into Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Government over sending the Rohingya Muslims back to Myanmar, saying that Rohingya refugess should be allowed to take shelter in the country just like other refugees are.
Owaisi also mentioned about the noted Bangladeshi writer, Taslima Nasreen, who has been living in India in exile since 1994 and asserted that if the former can be the sister of Prime Minister Modi, why can’t Rohingyas be his ‘brothers’.
He even questioned India’s wish to get a permanent membership in the United Nations Security Council.
“The Indian Government wants a permanent membership in the UN Security Council. Will this be their attitude as a super power? Can the Centre send back those Muslims back, who even have the permission of the Human Rights Council to stay here?” Owaisi said.
