New Delhi: Kicking-up a controversy, wife of NCP leader (Sharad Pawar’s faction) Jitendra Ahwad sought to defend terrorists Osama bin Laden and also compared him to late Indian president APJ Abdul Kalam. A video of her speech has gone viral on social media, evoking sharp reactions from various quarters.
In the clip, which is being widely-circulated on social media, Jitendra Ahwad’s wife Ruta Awhad can be heard saying that the society made Osama bin Laden a terrorist. She also asks the audience to read the biography of the late Al-Qaeda founder. “Read the biography of Osama Bin Laden. Just like APJ Abdul Kalam became Kalam Saheb, Osama became a terrorist. But why did he become a terrorist? He was not born one. Society made him one. He became a terrorist out of frustration,” she was heard saying in the video.
Sharing the video on X, BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla slammed the NCP and its INDIA bloc partners, including Congress, of defending terrorists like Kasab, Yakub Memon and others.
