AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi warned that any misuse of Form 7 against Muslims could trigger a Jantar Mantar‑style sit‑in in Hyderabad.
Owaisi, leader of the All India Majlis‑e‑Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) and Member of Parliament, issued a warning regarding the potential misuse of Form 7, a legal instrument that can be employed to challenge elected representatives.
He cautioned that if authorities were to apply the form in a manner that targets Muslim communities, his party would organize a mass protest in Hyderabad modeled after the Jantar Mantar demonstrations that have been held in Delhi to press government action.
The statement, reported by India Today, underscores rising concerns among Muslim leaders about perceived selective enforcement of electoral laws, and signals that any perceived injustice could translate into street mobilisation in the state capital.
