AIMIM and BJP clash in Assembly
In the Telangana Assembly, AIMIM and BJP members had a heated argument about the Special Intensive Revision (SIR).
AIMIM's Akbaruddin Owaisi said that SIR is being used to remove eligible voters, especially in Muslim areas, and is a way to impose the CAA and NRC.
He demanded that the government hold a meeting to address this issue.
BJP's A Maheshwar Reddy objected, saying that the discussion should stick to the ongoing topic and that SIR is necessary to remove fake votes.
The Legislative Affairs Minister, D Sridhar Babu, supported Owaisi's concern and assured that the electoral rolls will be comprehensive and will not exclude any eligible voter.
AIMIM's Akbaruddin Owaisi alleged that SIR is an indirect way of imposing CAA and NRC, leading to the deletion of eligible voters, particularly in Muslim areas.
