abu aasim aazmi
Mumbai: Mumbai Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi said that late BJP Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee had supported the independence of Palestine and opposed the oppression and atrocities on it, but today the country is pro-Israel. He supported Iran on the situation of war between Israel and Iran and prayed for Iran and said that Allah should give it success in the field of working against oppression. This is what I pray for. Saluting the courage and support of Iranian religious leader and leader Ayatollah Khomeini, Abu Asim Azmi said that Iran stands against oppression, so we pray for it. Azmi said that just as Indian citizens have been brought to India from Iran, in the same way the Indian victims of war in Israel should also be brought back to their homeland. Azmi also welcomed the Karnataka government’s decision to give 15 per cent reservation to Muslims in housing societies and said that if 15 per cent reservation is given in housing societies, there is nothing wrong in it. Here everyone has the right and privilege of equal justice.
