Muslims are like ‘band baja party’, : AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi !

AIMIM Chief Owaisi has recently announced that his party – AIMIM – will be contesting next year's Assembly polls in Uttar Pradesh on the promise of creating leadership among Muslims. His announcement has created unease in the political parties that so far considered the Muslims as their core "vote bank".Slamming the political parties for using Muslims as just a vote bank, Asaduddin Owaisi, the Hyderabad MP and All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief said that their community has no leader in Uttar Pradesh despite having 19 per cent of the Muslim population.Speaking at an event in Kanpur in Uttar Pradesh, he said, "The condition of Muslims has become like a 'band baja party' in a marriage procession where they (Muslims) are first asked to play music, but are made to stand outside on reaching the wedding venue".
