"Ghar mein ghus kar baith jana": AIMIM leader Owaisi advises Centre after Pahalgam terror attack

Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], May 1 (ANI): Calling for action against Pakistan in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi on Thursday said that the central government should eradicate terrorism, and this time instead of their rhetoric "ghar me ghus ke maarenge", they should "ghar mein ghus kar baith jana."
"BJP says 'ghar me ghus ke maarenge'. If you (central government) are taking action this time (against Pakistan), 'toh ghar mein ghus kar baith jana'. It is the resolution of the Indian Parliament that PoK is ours. All opposition parties are telling the government that terrorism should be eradicated," Owaisi said, addressing the media in Hyderabad.
Earlier today, Union Home Minister Amit Shah reiterated the Centre's zero tolerance policy against terrorism, saying the fight against the menace will continue until terrorism is completely uprooted.
"Terrorists should not think that they have achieved their big victory. This fight is not over yet. Chun chun ke badla lenge (we will take revenge on all terrorists)," Shah said while addressing an event in the national capital.
