chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has apologised for his now-deleted post on X, formerly called Twitter, in which he wrote serving the Brahmins, Ksatriyas and Vaishyas is the natural duty of the Shudras. The post sparked a row as the opposition leaders denounced "BJP's manuvadi ideology". AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi said Hindutva is antithetical to liberty, equality, fraternity and justice. "It's reflected in the unfortunate cruelty that Assam's Muslims have faced in the past few years," Owaisi said
In a recently deleted post, Assam CM elaborated on his vision of society. '…farming, cow rearing, and commerce are natural duties of the Vaishya and serving the Brahmins, Kshatriyas and Vaishyas is the natural duty of the Shudras.' Holding a constitutional position, your oath is to treat every citizen equally. It’s reflected in the unfortunate cruelty that Assam’s Muslims have faced in the past few years. Hindutva is antithetical to Liberty, Equality, Fraternity and Justice," Owaisi said
Congress leader Pawan Khera asked whether the PM and the President agreed with Himanta Biswa's castesist comments. "And then if you say something to him, he will send his cops. But such stupid comments cannot be ignored. Do @rashtrapatibhvn and @PMOIndia agree with @himantabiswa’s casteist comments?" he said
