Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], June 4 (ANI): Posters featuring All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) party President and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi were seen on Hyderabad’s metro pillars after an all-party delegation led by BJP MP Baijayant Panda, and including him, concluded its visits to Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Bahrain.
Owaisi’s flex boards featured several slogans, including “One man against terror, one truth against Pakistan, exposing the enemy within, for India, with pride.”
During their visit, the delegation briefed international partners on India’s response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor, highlighting the broader fight against cross-border terrorism while engaged with leaders in key countries.
During his visit to Algeria, AIMIM chief and MP Asaduddin Owaisi lambasted Pakistan, calling it an “epicentre of Takfirism.”
Addressing the Algerian media, members of think tanks and the Indian diaspora, Owaisi said that there is no ideological difference between the terrorist groups in Pakistan and Daesh and Al-Qaeda.
“Pakistan is the epicentre of Takfirism, and there is no difference in ideology between the terrorist groups in Pakistan and Daesh and Al-Qaeda. They believe that they have a religious sanction, which is completely wrong. Islam does not allow the killing of any person, and unfortunately, that is their ideology.”
Owaisi further reiterated his demand to put Pakistan back on the Grey list of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
“Terrorism survives on two things – ideology and money. Ideology, you know very well, you have seen the Black Decade, even in South Algeria, you still have some problems. On that point, we are together… Once you bring Pakistan back in the Grey list (of FATF), we will see a decrease in terrorism in India. We’ll see killings coming down. We have the 2018 experience when Algeria and other countries helped India,” Owaisi said.
Emphasising the effectiveness of the Grey list of FATF to counter terrorism, Owaisi said, “There was this one terrorist called Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi – no country in the world would allow a terrorist who’s facing a terror charge. He became a father to a son while sitting in prison. The trial progressed immediately when Pakistan was put on the Grey list (of FATF).”
“It’s not only a question of South Asia. We are the 4th largest economy. What will happen? Do you want all this carnage to spread to different parts of South Asia? No. It is in the interest of world peace to control Pakistan, which is the main sponsor of terrorism. It has to be brought back in the FATF Grey list,” he added. (ANI)
