The newly-elected MP from Begusarai, Giriraj Singh on Tuesday slammed All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi for his response over ‘Muslim hawker shot at in Begusarai’ tweet saying, “Owaisi has a habit of sowing hatred.”
Speaking to news agency ANI, Singh said, “The land of Begusarai is filled with peace. I urge Owaisi to let people of Begusarai continue to live in peace. His statement would have been different if police officers would have present at the incident spot. Owasi has a habit of sowing hatred. This is Modi ji’s raj (Kingdom)…Here, only peace will prevail.”
Earlier on Monday, the BJP leader tweeted, “Owaisi stop giving your statement on everything … The incident of Begusarai is not a communal incident, it is a criminal incident.”
ओवैसी हर चीज पर अपना बयान देना बंद करें …बेगूसराय की घटना संप्रदायिक घटना नहीं अपराधिक घटना है।
ओवैसी हर चीज पर बिना जानकारी विषवमन ना करें।
हिंदुस्तान को शांति से जीने दे और देश को सांप्रदायिकता के आधार पर तोड़ने की कोशिश न करे।

Asaduddin Owaisi on Monday responded to a tweet which claimed that a Muslim hawker was shot at in Bihar’s Begusarai. “When the hawker responded ‘Mohd Qasim’, the perpetrator asked him: ‘What he was doing here, you should be in Pakistan and fired at him’,” read the tweet.
Qasim almost lost his life for literally just saying his name. But sure, I am ‘fear mongering’
Where does Rajiv’s brazenness come from? From the top. BJP’s leadership has constantly demonised us & associated us with Pakistan
We’re not human in their eyes, we’re target practice https://t.co/KLY3e1MAAJ
