We are appealing to the PM and he does not speak a word. AIMIM has filed a complaint and an FIR has been registered.

'Afreen Fatima's house was broken into and...'

Hitting out at the Uttar Pradesh government over the demolition drive, he said, "Afreen Fatima's house in Allahabad was demolished, why did you demolish it? Because her father had protested. The principles of natural justice are the basic structure of the Constitution. Who decides? Will it? The court will decide whether he organized the wrong thing or not. The court will do justice and the court will not punish his wife and children."
