New Delhi: If you are taking action against Pakistan, “iss baar ghar mein ghus kar baith jana (go there and take over the place),” Lok Sabha MP Asaduddin Owaisi told the Centre to take decisive military and strategic action against Pakistan. The AIMIM chief, at a press conference on Thursday, was responding to a question regarding recent reports of Pakistani soldiers vacating posts, and families fleeing to London.
Owaisi said, “If your news is correct, then it is very good; we should go and take over the place. Don’t leave it this time. If they have vacated the place and left, then we should go and sit there.” Owaisi told the BJP-led Indian government that instead of Narendra Modi’s “ghar me ghus ke maarenge” (we will go to them and hit them) rhetoric, India should just take over the region.
The AIMIM chief also criticised the Narendra Modi-led government for not acting in 2019 to seize terrorist launch pads across the LoC (Line of Control). “I wish in 2019, Narendra Modi had acquired the launching pad lands from where terrorists operate,” he said. “There is already a resolution in Parliament of India that POK is ours. Then take action this time,” he said, emphasising that this stance is supported by Parliament itself. “Those areas [Pakistan-occupied Kashmir] are part of India.”
The Hyderabad MP cited multiple terror attacks — from Lumbini Park and Dilsukhnagar in Hyderabad to 26/11 in Mumbai and Pulwama in 2019 — to underline the ongoing threat. “A Telugu pandit lost his daughter A bride from Nizamabad was killed at VT Station with mehendi still on her hands,” he said.
