KALYAN: A day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched his poll blitz in Maharashtra by daring the opposition parties to declare in their manifestos for the assembly elections and all future polls that they would roll back the triple talaq law, Owaisi addressing public rally hits back on PM Modi saying if he is really concerned about Muslim women than he should also give reservation to Muslims in Maharashtra for their empowerment.

AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi, addressing party workers in Kalyan for his candidate Ayaz Maulavi, said, "If Modi is really concerned about empowerment of Muslims women and men than he should give reservation to Muslims in Maharashtra." If Modi can give reservation to Marthas in name of their empowerment, than why not to Marathi Muslims in Maharashtra who are also socially backward, questioned Owaisi at the rally.
The PM Modi on Sunday, while addressing rally in Jalgaon had accused the opposition of trying to block the triple talaq law saying the opposition parties led by Congress tried to create hurdles to prevent passage of triple talaq because they did not want Muslim women to benefit. If they have guts, let them publicly announce that they will do away with this law if they come to power.
Owaisi also targeted PM Modi for going to see launch of Sattelite on moon saying PM Modi can go to see launch of Satellite but he can not see problems of Kalyan city where five people died due to potholes. He also targeted Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray over his remarks on the defeat of Shiv Sena candidate from Aurangabad seat during Lok Sabha election. "Uddhav Thackeray has a problem with the green colour, but I would like to tell him that our country's flag also has green in it,and once again we will repeat an Aurangabad type victory in Kalyan," said Owaisi.
