Owaisi: Hijab-wearing woman will be India's PM; Rane: No place for them here
- •AIMIM President Asaduddin Owaisi stated at a Solapur rally that India's constitution allows any citizen to become PM, unlike Pakistan's.
- •Owaisi expressed his dream that a hijab-wearing woman would one day become India's Prime Minister, emphasizing constitutional equality.
- •He urged youth and minorities to understand their constitutional rights and participate in democracy.
- •Maharashtra Minister Nitish Rane reacted, stating India is a Hindu nation where hijab-wearing women won't become PM or Mumbai Mayor.
- •Rane suggested those with such aspirations should go to 'Islamic countries like Karachi', asserting 'no place for them here'.
Why It Matters: Owaisi envisions a hijab-wearing woman as PM, while Rane dismisses the idea in 'Hindu nation' India.
