Owaisi blames BJP for attacks on mosques and houses in Kolhapur
Blaming the BJP for an attack on a mosque and houses of the minority community at Kolhapur, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi termed the vandalism an act of terrorism encouraged by the Eknath Shinde-Devendra Fadnavis Government in Maharashtra.
He pointed out that in the past eight months, such attacks on mosques were carried out in Maharashtra with impunity.
“This is a kind of a terrorist attack on mosques… There is the Shinde-Fadnavis BJP government and because of that government such attacks are being carried out on mosques,” Owaisi said, accusing the police of being a mute spectator when such attacks take place.
“Such incidents are being encouraged, directly or indirectly, by the Shinde-led BJP Government which is why the culprits carry out the attacks with impunity,” he added.
Taking a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said, “You want to be Vishwaguru and you are standing on a mosque trying to demolish it.”
Alleging deliberate targeting of Muslims and mosques, he urged people to vote for the AIMIM so that someone could at least raise the issue while the so-called secular parties were maintaining silence over it. A mob had attacked the mosque and houses of Muslims on Sunday.
Expressing concern over the recent terrorist attack at Doda killing four Army personnel, the AIMIM leader called it the result of the complete failure of the Modi Government in maintaining law and order in J&K.
“It is a failure of the Modi Government. What has happened in Doda… the area is too far away from the LoC. How is it that the terrorists infiltrated and carried out the attack on security personnel,” he wondered, adding it showed the “incapability” of the Modi Government to ensure security in the region.
He asked how the prime minister could claim that terror incidents have gone down following the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir.
He pointed out that the government is continuing with its trade with China worth billions of dollars even as the neighbouring country is playing a role in destabilising the region.

Allahabad HC sets aside maintenance order in favour of earning wife, says she didn't tell truth
Prayagraj (PTI): The Allahabad High Court has set aside a lower court order mandating a man to pay maintenance to his estranged wife, observing that she earns her living and did not reveal the true salary in her affidavit.
Justice Madan Pal Singh also allowed a criminal revision petition filed by the man, Ankit Saha.
"A perusal of the impugned judgment indicates that in the affidavit filed before the trial court, the opposite party herself admitted that she is a post-graduate and a web designer by qualification. She is working as a senior sales coordinator in a company and getting a salary of Rs 34,000 per month," the court said in the December 3 order.
"But in her cross-examination, she has admitted that she was earning Rs 36,000 per month. Such an amount for a wife who has no other liability cannot be said to be meagre; whereas the man has the responsibility of maintaining his aged parents and other social obligations," it observed.
The high court observed that the woman was not entitled to get any maintenance from her husband "as she is an earning lady and able to maintain herself".
The man's counsel argued in court that the estranged wife did not reveal the whole truth in the affidavit.
"She claimed herself to be an illiterate and unemployed woman. When the document filed by the man was shown to her before the trial court, she admitted her income during cross-examination. Thus, it is clear that she did not come before the trial court with clean hands," the counsel submitted.
The court, in its order, said, "Cases of those litigants who have no regard for the truth and those who indulge in suppressing material facts need to be thrown out of the court."
It impugned the lower court's February 17 judgment and order, passed by the principal judge of a family court in Gautam Buddh Nagar and allowed the criminal revision petition filed by the man.
