Asaduddin Owaisi Responds on What He Would Have Done as PM After Pahalgam Attack

AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Tuesday dismissed a question about how he would have dealt with the Pahalgam attack.

During a press conference, a reporter asked him, “What would you have done if you were the Prime Minister during the 22nd April Pahalgam terror attack?”

Owaisi replied, “Mere bhai, ye khwab dekhne ka mujhe shaukh nahi (my brother, I do not dream about these things). I deal with reality and understand the extent of my reach. Our aim is not just to sit in power or become ministers.”

He further added, “As an Indian national, I must say that after Pahalgam, we had a real opportunity to give a strong response. Why did it stop? I don’t know, truly, I don’t know why it stopped. It was a war-like situation. Suddenly, operations were halted. Why stop when the entire country was ready to deliver a decisive response? Now, you sit in Parliament and talk about gaining PoK.”
