HYDERABAD: Hyderabad MP and AIMIM President, Barrister Asaduddin Owaisi, criticized K. MadhaviLatha, BJP’s Hyderabad MP candidate, after a video surfaced showing her making an arrow gesture towards the Siddi Amber Bazaar Mosque during the Ram Navami procession in Old City.
Probably the most cringe candidate from #Telangana this election season.
While I am always thrilled about more women entering politics, I think the state will be better off without someone like her.
Everything about her feels extremely fake! 🙏🏼 Didn’t hear one sensible word… pic.twitter.com/JnElmRq2yl— Revathi (@revathitweets) April 18, 2024
