Owaisi to be served notice for ‘communal’ remarks in UP

A notice will soon be issued to AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi for making alleged communal comments during a speech at a public meeting of PDM Nyay Morcha in Varanasi on April 25.
The notice will be issued by an Additional returning officer on behalf of the District Election Officer. Kashi region BJP legal cell convenor Shashank Shekhar Tripathi had complained to the Election Commission, alleging that AIMIM chief Owaisi delivered communal statements during a public meeting in Varanasi.
Confirming that such a complaint was received, Additional Returning Officer Sub-Divisional Magistrate Neeraj Patel said on Sunday that after the initial probe, a notice is being issued to Owaisi.
