Telangana govt should constitute SIT to probe Medak death: Shabbir Ali

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Congress leader Mohammed Ali Shabbir on Sunday demanded that the Telangana government set up a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe into the death of Mohammed Abdul Qadeer Khan, who succumbed to death due to the grievous injuries caused by Medak Police personnel.
Further, he said all the police personnel involved in the act must be booked for murder and arrested immediately. He also demanded compensation of Rs 50 lakh to be paid to the victim’s family.
Shabbir Ali strongly condemned the Telangana Police for trying to cover up the custodial death.
“Why is the state home minister Mahmood Ali silent on this issue? Why is he not at the very least acknowledging the custodial death of Qadeer Khan? Is this the KCR government’s example of ‘friendly policing’?” he asked.
The Congress leader said that the death of Qadeer Khan due to police torture has raised many questions about the functioning of Telangana Police.
“Qadeer Khan was first picked up from the Old City of Hyderabad as a suspect in a theft case; brutally tortured for five days in a police station in Medak and then placed under illegal house arrest. He was denied medical help although he suffered multiple fractures, dislocation of the spine and renal failure. He had to escape house arrest to get himself admitted to a hospital in Hyderabad. Media has been reporting about the incident since Qadeer Khan was admitted to a hospital and the victim himself recorded a video narrating how he was tortured by the police. But neither the home minister, DGP or other police officials reacted and now after his death, they are busy trying to cover up everything,” he said.
Shabbir Ali alleged that Telangana was becoming the capital of ‘custodial deaths and torture.
He said a Dalit woman Mariyamma and her son Uday Kiran were brutally tortured by the police in Yadadadri Bhuvanagiri district and later Mariyamma succumbed to the injuries in July 2021.

Two more cases were later reported from Suryapet and Kamareddy districts.
“Instead of ensuring the safety of common people, home minister Mahmood Ali leaves no occasion to praise the Telangana police and its ‘friendly policing’,” he said adding that Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR) never reacted on the rising incidents of custodial deaths in different parts of Telangana.
He also condemned MIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi for defending the KCR government on all issues including the custodial death of Qadeer Khan. He pointed out that Qadeer Khan was picked by the police from Yakutpura, which is part of the Hyderabad Lok Sabha constituency.
“The AIMIM leader went to Bharatpur in Rajasthan to meet the families of two youths Junaid and Nasir who were murdered in Haryana by the right-wing goons. While we strongly condemn the murder of Junaid and Nasir and demand stern action against the culprits, we expect Asaduddin Owaisi to express a similar reaction to Qadeer Khan’s custodial death who belonged to his home state. Why Asaduddin Owaisi did not visit the Gandhi Hospital in Hyderabad where Qadeer Khan was admitted for 23 days? Is he not trying to protect KCR government as he did in the past in similar cases?” he asked.

KCR Govt decreased Muslim quota to 3%, reduced budget: Shabbir

[ad_1]
Kamareddy: Former Minister Mohammed Ali Shabbir was facilitated by the members of Wahidiya Masjid Committee of Vikas Nagar Colony in Kamareddy town after Friday prayers for his in bringing 4% Muslim reservation in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
The Wahidiya Masjid Committee members honoured him describing him as the champion of Muslim reservation. They said that the 4% Muslim quota changed the lives of lakhs of poor Muslims in both the Telugu States of Telangana and Andhra as they have been getting 4% seats in all educational institutions and also 4% quota in all government jobs since 2004-05.
Speaking on the occasion, Shabbir Ali said that the minorities, especially the beneficiaries of the 4% Muslim reservation should support the Congress party in the next elections. He said Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao, who came to power on the promise of a 12% Muslim reservation, cheated the minority community by reducing the Muslim quota to 3%. He said KCR Govt has illegally reduced the quota for Muslims in the BC-E category in jobs and education to 3% and it was being done unofficially.
Shabbir Ali said the previous Congress Government not only provided 4% reservation for Muslims but implemented many schemes for the welfare of minorities. However, he said that the TRS government was only creating hype about minorities’ welfare, but doing nothing. He alleged that the KCR Govt has made all the institutions dealing with the welfare of minorities defunct by not sanctioning funds and not filling vacant posts. He said that Muslims should realise that KCR has caused huge damage to minorities by wearing the false mask of secularism.
The Congress leader said that the TRS has always supported the BJP Govt at the Centre and indirectly strengthened the BJP in the State by damaging the Congress party in Telangana. He announced that the Congress party would soon launch a campaign to expose these facts before the people.
Shabbir Ali said that about 10-12 lakh youth belonging to minority communities were unemployed in Telangana. He said that the minority youth did not receive a single rupee of aid or loan from the BRS Govt in the last eight years. “We will start a movement with these unemployed youth to put pressure on the TRS government for subsidized loans and other facilities,” he said.
He said if the minorities want to protect their places of worship, Waqf properties and Urdu language and get a share in the welfare programmes like housing for weaker sections, education, health, etc., then they should ensure the return of Congress Govt in Telangana in the next elections. He said that the BRS was not a secular party and it has cheated the minorities by damaging their institutions, schemes and places of worship.

‘Haath Se Haath Jodo’ Abhiyan getting an overwhelming response: Shabbir

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Former Minister Mohammed Ali Shabbir on Friday claimed that the ‘Haath Se Haath Jodo’ Abhiyan was getting tremendous response from the people across the State.
About 50 activists of BRS and BJP of Kancherla village of Bhiknoor Mandal, Kamareddy district joined the Congress party. Shabbir Ali invited them to the Congress party by offering a ‘Khandwa’.
Speaking to media persons on the occasion, Shabbir Ali said that the ‘Haath Se Haath Jodo’ Abhiyan would be an overwhelming success. He said the campaign has already been launched at a grand scale in Kamareddy on the occasion of the 74th Republic Day on Thursday. “During the two-month-long campaign, we will expose the failures of the BJP Govt at the Centre and BRS Govt in Telangana. We will explain to the people how they were deceived by Modi and KCR Govts with their false promises and fake assurances. They failed to address the problems of rising unemployment and inflation and deceived the people by creating an illusion of development,” he said.
He informed that a letter written by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and a ‘charge sheet’ against the BJP and BRS Govts would be delivered to each household during the ‘Haath Se Haath Jodo’ Abhiyan. “Telangana’s politics has become too noisy due to the ongoing war of words between BRS and BJP leaders. Both parties are admitting lack of development in Telangana during the last eight years. But they are blaming each other for the same. People have realised that the tussle between BRS and BJP was fake and was only aimed at diverting people’s attention from the failures of their governments in the State and at the Centre. Therefore, people have decided to support the Congress party in the next elections,” he said.
Shabbir Ali accused Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao of wasting more time in politics than focusing on governance. “The Union Budget will be presented on 1st February and Telangana’s budget will also be presented in the first week of February. Telangana is in huge debts of over Rs. 5 lakh crore and it has no money to pay salaries on time. Instead of holding meetings with financial experts to explore ways to come out of the ongoing financial crisis, KCR is entirely focussed on expanding his BRS party. Even Finance Minister T. Harish Rao is busy attending party programmes. CM KCR did not hold a single meeting with the Finance and other related departments to discuss the forthcoming budget. This approach will cause huge damage to Telangana’s interest,” he said.
The Congress leader said that the ‘Haath Se Haath Jodo’ Abhiyan would strengthen the reach of the Congress party across Telangana as each party worker would visit every household in his area to expose the failures of BRS and BJP Govts. “We will carry the message of peace, brotherhood and unity given by Rahul Gandhi during his Bharat Jodo Yatra to every citizen. We will enlighten people on how they were being mistreated by the KCR and Modi regimes,” he said.
Shabbir Ali said the problems being faced by the people in their villages and localities would also be highlighted during the ‘Haath Se Haath Jodo’ Abhiyan.
