HYDERABAD: In a veiled reference to Akbaruddin Owaisi’s infamous '15-minute' remark, BJP state president and Karimnagar MP Bandi Kumar Sanjay on Sunday said within 24 hours after winning GHMC polls, BJP will give cops a free hand for 15 minutes to kick out Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, Afghans and Rohingyas from the city.

Speaking at an event ‘Meet and Greet with Bandi Sanjay’, an interaction session with doctors at Chiran Fort Club at Begumpet, Bandi Sanjay said, “Telangana police are heroes. Give a victory to BJP in Bhagyanagar. Within 15 minutes after coming into power, we will give a free hand to the police for 15 minutes in the Old City to identify Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, Afghans and Rohingyas and kick them out.”

Alleging that the incidents of suppressing Hindus are being spread to various parts of Hyderabad from Old City, he said, “The incidents of suppressing Hindus will soon spread to Amberpet, Musheerabad and Secunderabad, as the AIMIM is eyeing to occupy the whole city.”

“From several colonies of Old City, the Hindus were driven out with intimidation. Give us the full majority in the ensuing elections. We will ensure bringing back the Hindus who left the Old City out of fear. AIMIM party has outnumbered Hindus in Old City and encroached upon the ancestral properties of Hindus. We will ensure that all those Hindus will return to Old City reclaiming their properties. There is nothing wrong in it,” he added.
