AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi launched a scathing attack on the Election Commission and the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) during a press conference in Hyderabad on Tuesday (June 23). He strongly condemned the ‘Special Intensive Revision’ process that rejects passports as valid proof of citizenship. He also accused the government of trying to monopolize citizenship and using bulldozers against minorities to divert attention from corruption in the Ram Mandir fund.
Expressing concern over bureaucratic hurdles in citizenship review, Owaisi said that out of 12 documents required for ‘Special Intensive Revision’, only 8 have been accepted so far, while NRC and other important documents are being ignored. He said that the request to the Chief Electoral Officer to validate Aadhaar, PAN, driving license and food security card was also rejected. Not only this, the passport was also refused to be accepted as a valid document. Owaisi said that Indian passport is issued after strict police verification and is not given to any foreigner, hence rejecting it is completely illogical.

big question on citizenship
Taking a sharp dig at the ruling government, the senior MP alleged that the future criteria for Indian citizenship may soon be limited to political allegiance only. Making a sarcastic comment, he said that the day is not far when only those officially declared members of the Bharatiya Janata Party will be considered Indian citizens. He warned that limiting constitutional rights to party membership drives weakens the country’s democratic structure.
attack on ram temple fund
Turning his attention towards the Ayodhya Ram temple, Owaisi raised serious questions over huge financial irregularities related to donations to the temple. He said that the grand temple was built on the sacred foundation of public faith, but the ruling party has now completely lost its credibility with respect to those funds. Instead of responding to financial irregularities in a transparent manner, the administration’s entire focus is on bulldozing Muslim properties and continuing atrocities against the minority community. He concluded that such distraction tactics were being used deliberately to hide its structural failures and deep corruption.
