Asaduddin Owaisi reacts to Rajinikanth's comments on PM Modi and Amit Shah
Rajinikanth had commented that PM Modi and Amit Shah were like Lord Krishna and Arjuna.
HYDERABAD: The 'Mahabharata' analogy was used by Superstar Rajinikanth while praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah regarding the decisions taken by the government for Kashmir. As the Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi, had reacted to the analogy wondering, "Who are the Pandavas and Kauravas?"
Rajinikanth had commented that PM Modi and Amit Shah were like Lord Krishna and Arjuna.
Mr Owaisi had referred to it, while addressing an Eid gathering at the office of his party AIMIM in Hyderabad.
By referring to the five Pandava brothers who fought their evil cousins, the Kauravas, in the defining battle of the epic Mahabharata, the AIMIM chief said, "A Tamil Nadu actor called PM Modi and Amit Shah Krishna and Arjun for abrogating Article 370 from J&K. Then who are Pandavas and Kauravas in this situation? Do you want another 'Mahabharat' in the country."
He added by saying, "know this government has no love for Kashmiris, they love the land of Kashmir but not its people, they love power but not the justice. They only want to retain power. But I shall remind them that no one lives or rules for eternity."
However, Tamil Nadu Congress chief KS Alagiri had objected to the comparison made by Rajinikanth and said: "How can those who snatched away the rights of crores of people be Krishna and Arjuna? Dear Mr Rajinikanth, please read Mahabharat again, please go through it again properly."
