Reacting to Karnataka outfits seeking a ban on the “monopoly of Muslims” in the fruit business, Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi slammed the state government, stating that it has enabled “brazen mob rule” in the state. He said that this issue was just another excuse to enforce untouchability against Muslims.
He hit out at the Basavaraj-led government and said, “Karnataka govt has enabled brazen mob rule. Mobs are deciding who can sell what, and who can buy from whom. There is no “Muslim monopoly”, it’s just another excuse to enforce untouchability against Muslims.”
