Asaduddin Owaisi triggers uproar by invoking Palestine during oath-taking in Parliament. Find out why his actions caused a heated debate!

Asaduddin Owaisi, the president of All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM), stirred up a controversy during his oath-taking ceremony as a Lok Sabha MP by concluding with the slogan 'Jai Palestine.' This unexpected move sparked heated debates and objections from the BJP members present in the Parliament.

Owaisi defended his pro-Palestine chant by referencing Gandhi's principles of justice and freedom, emphasizing his stance on global solidarity. Despite facing criticism, he stood by his actions, highlighting the importance of supporting Palestine amidst ongoing international conflicts.

Re-elected as MP from Hyderabad, Owaisi's oath in Urdu, culminating with 'Jai Bheem, Jai Telangana, Jai Palestine,' further intensified the uproar and led to calls for his expulsion from the proceedings. However, Owaisi remained firm in his position, asserting the significance of expressing solidarity with Palestine in the Lok Sabha.

As the controversy unfolded, opinions were divided, with some calling for strict actions against Owaisi for his unconventional oath-taking approach. The incident reignited discussions on the intersection of political statements and parliamentary decorum, rekindling debates on the boundaries of expression within the legislative framework.
