All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi cut a troll short on Sunday for suggesting that Muslims will again migrate to Pakistan.
The Lok Sabha member from Hyderabad also schooled the Twitter user on how his country needs to learn how to protect minority rights, from India. (Two Hindu sisters were recently kidnapped, converted to Islam, and married off).
A video of Owaisi, where he can be heard saying that back in the 1940s, Indian Muslims rejected Muhammad Ali Jinnah's two-nation theory. To this, a Pakistani man had tweeted that the "day is not far when a second wave of migrants will arrive in Pakistan".
To this, the AIMIM chief, who is seeking a re-election from his Hyderabad Lok Sabha seat, quoted independence activist and scholar Maulana Abul Kalam Azad and stated that day will never come.
Incidentally, the video of Owaisi in question, was also shared by a Pakistani Twitter user -- (@AliRazaTweets).
"When Karnataka elections came, they found a new controversy. Photo, photo, photo. (Referring to Muhammad Ali Jinnah's photo in AMU Student Union office). What photo? What do we have to do with Jinnah? We are here in India. We are Indian by birth and Indian by choice. We told Jinnah to get out. We rejected his two-nation theory," Owaisi can be heard saying in the video.
The video was captioned: “Asaduddin Owaisi is not just an individual but represents Muslims”. To this, the MP replied: “What Owaisi said is not important for Pakistanis”.
In further response to this video, another Twitter user Imran Wasim, said: “Our forefathers migrated in 47. The day is not far when a second wave of migrants will arrive in Pakistan, we will welcome them, including @asadowaisi. What our Prophet (SAW) said is binding on us he connected all Muslims as brothers.”

This day will never come. If some will want that day to come, Muslims and Hindus will fight together shoulder to shoulder to not let that happen. Like they fought with Britishers, who were as divisive as the people wanting Muslims to migrate.— (@UtkarshKumarIn) March 24, 2019
I am a staunch Hindu & nationalist but with each passing day I am getting to know a true nationalistic patriotic side of Mr owaisi....He is different kind of politician.....India is one .. we all Hindu Muslims are brothers ...— Satyajit Nayak (@hotmalejeet) March 25, 2019
Absolutely well said Sir, #maulanaazad's passionate call to #muslims at #jamamasjid not to migrate and desert their homeland serves as an inspiration even today. We, who have stayed back, for the love of our motherland, don't need to substantiate or prove #patriotism at all!— Besabar Faraz Siddiqui (@Farazuss) March 24, 2019
Muslims living in india have decided their future in 1947, anyone who is asking them to go to Pakistan is just stupid and risking survival of india, secularism is life line of india, hindutva has to understand and accept this fact,— Raza Khan (@RazaKha92506662) March 24, 2019
