Union Minister and BJP leader Kiren Rijiju on Tuesday lauded AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi for taking a sharp swipe at Pakistan’s military bluff and said that “Owaisi is speaking as true Indian in the very critical time”. Rijiju’s praise came after Owaisi slammed Pakistani Army chief Asim Munir over a misfired photo op.

Speaking to members of the Indian diaspora in Kuwait, Owaisi ridiculed Pakistan’s attempt to portray a 2019 Chinese military drill photo as evidence of its victory over India.

Taking to X, Rijiju shared Owaisi’s video and praised him, saying, “Exposed Pakistan. At least Asaduddin Owaisi speaking as true Indian in very critical time.”

Owaisi Trolls Pakistan

AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi on Monday trolled Pakistan after Army Chief Asim Munir presented a memento of Operation Bunyan al-Marsus to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. However, it was later found that the picture was “photoshopped” and belonged to a 2019 Chinese drill.

“Yesterday, the Pakistani Army chief gifted a photo to the Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif… these stupid jokers want to compete with India,” Owaisi quipped. “They had given a photograph of a 2019 Chinese Army drill claiming it is a victory over India,” Owaisi said.

“This is what Pakistan indulges in, they cannot even provide a proper photograph. Nakal karne ke liye akal chahiye, inke pass akal bhi nahi hai (It takes brains to copy, and they don’t even have that),” he added.

Notably, the image presented by Asim Munir was an old one that has been used numerous times in the past five years. The image of PHL-03, which is a multiple rocket launcher of Chinese origin, was captured by Photographer Huang Hai and was first shared in 2019.
