Akabaruddin and Assaduddin Owaisi – Leaders of All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul Muslimeen or AIMIM

There are several news, rumours, expressions, responses are spread over and spreading about Akabaruddin and Assauddin Owaisi, about both brothers who are representing leaders of ‘All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul Muslimeen or AIMIM.

We may summarise the history of this political party – ‘AIMIM’ in brief to understand the achievement, target and way of this political party sothat we may know whether its function, working, approach and ideology is consistent with the different legislation of our country and our Constitution. It can also be seen and scrutinized from the statements, approach, their conduct and behaviour in the light of the results and consequences of them whether that is supporting our democratic system or the undue advantage is taken by them through our administrative functioning of Government based on the foundation of selfishness of our political parties to achieve the ruling in election.

It may mean ‘All India Council of the Union of Muslim’, is recognised political party based in Telangana having head office at Hyderabad. We may see the roots in 1927 in Hyderabad State. It was founded by Nawab Mahmood Nawaz Khan Qiledar of Hyderabad State as per advice of Nawab Mir Osman Ali Khan, Nizam of Hyderabad. The MIM was basically for the Muslim rather than having integration with India. The Razakars aimed resistance of merger with India after independence and linked with MIM and that was it was banned in 1948. Quasim Rizvi was jailed from 1948 to 1957 and was released on condition that he would go to Pakistan where he was granted asylum. Before that he handed over the responsibility to Abdul Wahid Owaisi who reconstructed the party as All India Majlis-e-Iteehadul Muslimeen and thereafter his son Sultan Salauddin Owasi controlled AIMIM. Since 1984, it held Lok Sabha seat in Hyderabad constituency. In Telangana Legislative Assembly Election held in 2014, it won 7 seats that has given recognition as ‘State Party’ by Election Commission of India. It is now recognised second largest party in Aurangabad Municipal Corporation.

Assauddin Owaisi – Who received ‘Sansad Ratna Award for 2014. Two criminal cases were filed in Bihar seeking sedition charges for his refusal to say ‘Bharat Mata Ki Jay’. Another criminal prosecution is going on that is poll related violence case against Owasi brothers in Old City and four other cases against MIM legislators, including Chandrayangutta MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi, and they were arrested. A local court in Hyderabad has directed police to register a case against himself, Hyderabad MP for allegedly hurting sentiments of Indians by saying "he will not chant 'Bharat Mata ki Jai' even if a knife is put to his throat". A complaint has been registered against film star Salman Khan and himself for making alleged objectionable statement against the death penalty given to 1993 serial bomb blasts convict Yakub Memon. He surrendered before police in connection with Congress leaders Mohammed Ali Shabbir and N Uttam Kumar Reddy on GHMC polling day. Opposition parties demanded that “attempted murder“cases must be booked against MIM him on charges of assaulting Telangana Congress president N Uttam Kumar Reddy and Mohammad Ali Shabbir. Opposition party and RSS seeks action against Owasi brothers. The remarks by Owasi on ‘Bharat Mata’ are strictly actionable. He dubbed the verdict on 1993 Mumbai blasts convict Yakub Memon as a huge disappointment and a setback.

Akabaruddin Owaisi – An FIR was lodged by Kishanganj district administration for allegedly making inflammatory speech at an election rally and arrest order issued against him. The other similar cases with his brother are lodged. He faces eight cases including hate speeches, rioting, unlawful assembly and a case under the Arms Act. He has been elected as MLA for Chandrayangutta constituency on four occasions, in 1999, 2004, 2009 and 2014. He served as a deputy to his elder brother Asaduddin Owaisi, who was leading the MIM in the House. In 2004, he became the floor leader of MIM in Assembly upon Asaduddin's election to Lok Sabha from Hyderabad. He was re-elected in 2009 and lead the seven-member MIM in the House. He won his fourth consecutive victory in Assembly polls from Chandrayangutta assembly. In Writ Petition No.824 of 2013 as is filed against Government is related to Section 153, 153A, 295A of Indian Penal Code, 1860 claiming to be the protection of Art. 14, 21 of Constitution of India. After hearing both parties, certain remarks and observation was made by Hon. High Court Andhra Pradesh while disposing the petition.  

The FIR was lodged against AIMIM leader for violation of provisions of section 144 of Cr. P. C. and under sections 153 A and 188 of IPC. Section 153A deals with promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language and doing acts prejudicial to maintenance of harmony, while section 188 deals with disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant.

Hindu Organizations demanded – MIM Party’s President and MP Asaduddin Owaisi had made an anti-national statement that he would not say ‘Bharat Mata ki jai’ even when he was threatened with knife. MLA Waris Pathan of the same Party elected from Byculla, Mumbai also made similar statement during State Assembly session; therefore, MLA Pathan was unanimously suspended; however, no action has so far been taken against Owaisi.

Lyricist-writer Javed Akhtar – He will contest elections against All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) leader Asaduddin Owaisi if given a constituency with Hindus and Muslims in equal numbers.
These are our politicians and asking us to represent in Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha, Legislative Assembly, Legislative Council, Municipal Corporations, Municipal Councils and other Public Bodies whose prosecutions cannot be counted by a common man. There are so many and several cases which relates contrary to morality faced by the representatives who are elected by following due procedure of law as alleged. Whether our democracy is of such nature that such type of representatives would be elected and whether we are going to continue and allow the same system forever? Whether permitting such system of electing such type of representatives would be in our interest and interest of our society? If not then what is the solution for that or we will have to face those type of people till our death or till the ultimate death of our society? Whether the act, behaviour and conduct of those representatives are supporting the salient features of our Constitution and preamble of our Constitution. Whether such people are knowing the meaning of the provisions, aim and object of our constitution, which is prepared by the learned citizens and honest citizens to our country? What would be responses now of Dr. Rajendra Prasad who was the chairman of Constitution Committee and of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar who was the chairman of Drafting Committee, if they see this in our country?
The important question before us is ‘Whether such type of representatives are expected under The Representation of Peoples Act and other relevant legislations? Whether such type of representation is accepted to be just, correct and proper representation considering the rights of other citizens as fairly for them? Whether such act, behaviour and conduct of the representatives who are elected would support the law and order of our society? Whether such type of political parties and their representatives would be allowed to proceed further to achieve their target? Whether that would be aim and object of achieving the goal as expected in our Constitution and framers of the Constitution?
Whether that activities as consistent with the culture of our country, traditions of the society and though of our social-reformers, like – Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Chakravati Rajgopalachari, Dr. B. R. Ambedkar, Mahatma Jyotirao Fule, Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Pandit Madan Mohan Malavya, Acharya Vinoba Bhave, Swatantryveer Savarkar, Lokmanya Tilak and so many; who had lost their lives for this society.
There shall be strict guidelines for all political parties sothat criminals and criminal minded people should be prevented to approach political parties and only the people who are having real interest for social work for its benefit, would come for work of political parties. It is rather difficult or may be said to be impossible in the present atmosphere. Unless strong, steps are not taken by the society at large by refusing short-term benefits but will see the long-term, permanent benefits, development then only the society will take better rest in future. We have to think and act over all these difficulties and solve them permanently that only would be in the interest of our Country. If our country is survived then only we all would be alive in future otherwise not is the conclusion what one can draw
