Owaisi flays Amit Shah's comments vis-a-vis situation in J-K

AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Monday said Home Minister Amit Shah's comments that restrictions existed only in people's minds, vis--vis Jammu and Kashmir, was not correct, as CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury and others had to move the Supreme Court for a visit there and mobile services have reportedly not yet been restored.

Speaking to reporters here, he said the daughter of former J&K Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti had to take the Supreme Court's permission to visit the state, as did CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury, who wanted to meet his ailing party MLA.

"So whatever he (Shah) is saying, he is not stating the truth," Owasi said.

He said it was wrong of Shah to state in Parliament that Farooq Abdullah is free."...later on,he was booked under PSA."
"...But, at the same time, the Sikh community has shown that what unity brings and how they can do it. If they are doing it now, will the government also release prisoners when any religious ceremony takes place, of any religion? Will you show the same compassion and release everyone?
