Congress leaders label Asaduddin Owaisi a BJP agent

Congress leaders have accused AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi of acting as an agent for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to divide minority votes.

Congress spokesperson Farhan stated that Owaisi functions as a ‘B team’ for the BJP, claiming his political stance benefits the ruling party. Farhan also defended Rahul Gandhi’s leadership and asserted that the Muslim community remains aligned with the ideologies of Gandhi and Nehru.

Congress MP Pramod Tiwari reinforced these claims, referring to Owaisi and the BJP as ‘twin brothers.’ Tiwari cited election results in Maharashtra and Bihar as evidence, alleging that Owaisi’s party splits votes in a manner that facilitates BJP victories. Additionally, Tiwari criticized the current government's economic and foreign policies, calling for political change.
