Politics stuck between dream and reality Masood vs Owaisi on Prime Minister wearing hijab

News India Live, Digital Desk: Often such statements come to the fore in politics which garner discussion far and wide. Recently, Asaduddin Owaisi’s old claim is again in the headlines in which he had said that “one day a woman wearing hijab will become the Prime Minister of this country.” While his supporters got a new enthusiasm after hearing this, there has been a sharp reaction on this from the opposition and especially from the Congress circles. Senior Congress leader Imran Masood has described Owaisi’s claim as ‘seeing stars during the day’.

After all, why did Masood say this?
Imran Masood expressed his views very boldly. He says that in the current environment in the country, talking like this is just a ‘dream’. According to Masood, Owaisi is only misleading people emotionally with his words, whereas the ground reality indicates something else. His message was clear—people should not be confused merely by discussing what is not possible.

Political allegations and tag of ‘B Team’
Masood did not stop here. In a subdued tone, he once again raised the same old point that such statements of Owaisi are going to benefit BJP in some way or the other. Whenever it comes to polarization in politics, Congress and other parties have often put Owaisi in the dock. Imran Masood argues that when the burning issues of the country should be discussed, then playing the role of Prime Minister on a sensitive topic like ‘Hijab’ could be a part of Owaisi’s well thought out strategy.

Owaisi’s side and that belief
On the other hand, Owaisi’s stand has always been strong. He argues that in a democracy, every citizen, regardless of dress or religion, has the right to hold the highest office in the country. For them, ‘Hijab-wearing PM’ is not just a woman, but an identity of inclusive India.

What are the public thinking?
After this statement the market of discussions is hot on social media. Some people are praising Imran Masood’s ‘practical’ approach that at least someone showed the mirror. Whereas Owaisi’s supporters are seeing this as hope for the future.
