Narendra Modi, Mamta Banerjee practicing same politics of communalism: Asaduddin Owaisi
Chennai: All India Majlis-e-Ittihadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi on Wednesday slammed West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and said she and Narendra Modi are practicing the same politics of communalism.
Speaking to media reporters at a Tamil Nadu Airport, Owaisi condemned Banerjee’s statement wherein she claimed that she was an upper-caste Hindu woman and said she belonged from Shandilya gotra.
“If she is proudly saying that she belongs to an upper-caste Brahman community and that her gotra is Shandilya, then where should Muslims and Dalits of West Bengal go? Muslims and Dalits are not part of this Verna system. That is why I condemn her statement” Owaisi told reporters adding that she is practicing the politics of communalism like Narendra Modi and BJP.
“I don’t find any difference between what she is saying in the election campaign and what the BJP is saying. Mamta Banerjee and Narendra Modi are made for each other,” he added.
Earlier in a Tweet, Owaisi had raised a similar question over Banerjee’s gotra remark asking where should people like him who aren’t Shandilya or Janeudhari and bhakts of certain gods go.
“What should happen to people like me who aren’t Shandilya or Janeudhari, aren’t bhakts of certain gods, don’t recite Chalisa or any Path? Every party feels that it has to show its Hindu credentials to win. Unprincipled, insulting & unlikely to succeed” Owaisi had written in the tweet.

Online fraud: Hotel chef from Udupi cheated of over Rs 1 lakh by WhatsApp contact
Udupi: Udupi City Police have registered a case of online fraud after a 62-year-old hotel chef was allegedly cheated of Rs 1.13 lakh by a woman who befriended him on WhatsApp, claiming to be based in London.
The victim, identified as Pandu Kariappa Poojary, a resident of Kuthpadi in Udupi, was working at a hotel in Mangaluru.
He reportedly came into contact with a woman identifying herself as Emilda William on WhatsApp. During their interactions, she told Poojary that she planned to start a cosmetics and hotel business in India and would meet him during a visit to Mangaluru.
On April 7, Emilda sent Poojary a flight ticket from London to Delhi via WhatsApp. The following day, Poojary received a phone call from a woman who informed him that Emilda had arrived at Delhi airport carrying a demand draft worth Rs 5 crore along with other items. The caller allegedly asked him to pay Rs 70,000.
Subsequently, Poojary also received a call from Emilda, who was reportedly crying and spoke about the situation. Believing the claims, he transferred a total of Rs 1,13,300 in phases using a scanner. He later realised that he had been cheated.
