'The bulldozer got punctured', said SP leader Abu Azmi referring to the Beed blast incident:

Abu Azmi On PM Modi: Abu Azmi, the president of Samajwadi Party (SP) in Maharashtra, launched a scathing attack on the central government accusing it of harassing Muslims. He quipped that Modiji, don't give us any gifts, just give us the rights that are in the constitution for us.

Talking to news agency ANI, Abu Azmi said, "It is okay if we do not get jobs, but the attacks on our religion should stop. The roads remain jammed due to Kanwadis, but flowers will be showered on them, we are not opposing it, but what will happen if Muslims are not allowed to offer namaz?

The bulldozer got punctured- Abu Azmi

Referring to the Beed blast, the SP leader said, "Muslims are being harassed in this country. If Muslims had done something, the bulldozer would have come immediately but in this case the bulldozer has been punctured." He also raised the question whether this government takes action of bulldozer on the basis of religion?

Do not take legal action based on religion- Abu Azmi

Earlier also, while demanding justice for the Beed mosque blast, he had demanded strict legal action against whoever is guilty in this incident. He had said that this case should be investigated strictly. Legal action should not be taken on the basis of religion.

Abu Azmi had said in a statement on March 30 that Muslims have as much right over the country as other people. Atrocities against Muslims should be stopped. He termed the demand to close mutton shops during Navratri as harmful for poor shopkeepers and asked whether the government will compensate for their losses? This is being done only to harass and target Muslims.
