‘Confront Pakistan, adopt Kashmiris’
HYDERABAD, May 17:
AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi said on Saturday that Pakistan with its long history of sponsoring terrorism has become a threat to humanity, affirming that this will be the heart of his message to the international community as a member of all-party delegations the government is sending to world capitals.

In an interview to PTI Videos, the Hyderabad MP said the world will have to be told about the slaughtering of innocent citizens by Pakistan-sponsored terrorists for a long spell of time.
“India has been a big victim of Pakistan-sponsored terrorism. We all have seen the tamasha, slaughtering of people since the time of Zia-ul-Haq,” he said in his most explicit and fiery condemnation of Pakistan.
He added, “You can never trust Pakistan as long as the Pakistani deep state, Pakistani ISI, Pakistani military’s objective is to destabilise Bharat.”
Owaisi, however, added that he is yet to be briefed by the government about the details of the diplomatic drive following the Pahalgam attack and Operation Sindoor.
One of the sharpest opposition voices against the BJP, the fifth-term Lok Sabha member has emerged as among the most vocal supporters of the government’s tough stand against Pakistan, drawing praise even from a section of people generally hostile to his politics.
“Politically, we (his party) will continue to fight the BJP’s ideology. But when you come to the country and kill the citizens of the country, the citizens of India, then where does any question arise in this? Of my political ideological differences,” he said, emphasising that his excoriation of Pakistan reflects the wider sentiments among Muslims. (PTI)
