'Ghar wapsi' row: Not threatening anyone, says MIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi

Hyderabad: Clarifying his remark that Islam was the “real home” of all religions in the world, MIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi said that it was his belief and others had every right to disagree with him.

“What I said is my belief, you have every right to disagree with me, I’m not threatening anyone,” said Asaduddin Owaisi. He added, “Every citizen has a right to choose their religion as per Indian constitution.”

Earlier, Owaisi said that Islam was the “real home” of all religions in the world and hence the real “Ghar Wapsi” (homecoming) would be when people of other religions embraced it.
