A senior Congress figure has claimed that Asaduddin Owaisi is preaching policies in Uttar Pradesh that he does not follow in his own constituency.
A senior leader of the Indian National Congress has publicly alleged that Asaduddin Owaisi, the chief of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen, is advocating positions in Uttar Pradesh that he allegedly does not practice in his home constituency.
