NEW DELHI: All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) MP Asaduddin Owaisi 's Delhi residence was vandalised with black ink by "unknown miscreants " on Thursday.
Lashing out at the attack, the MP tweeted: "Some 'unknown miscreants' vandalised my house with black ink today. I have now lost count the number of times my Delhi residence has been targeted."
Taking a shot at the Delhi police, which comes under the Union home ministry headed by Amit Shah, Owaisi said: "When I asked Delhi Police officials how this was happening right under their nose, they expressed helplessness. Amit Shah this is happening under your oversight."
He also lashed out at Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, stating "Speaker Om Birla, please tell us if MPs' safety will be guaranteed or not."
In another potshot that is likely to cause controversy, the MP said: "To the two-bit goons who keep targeting my house: this does not scare me. Stop this Savarkar-type cowardly behaviour and be men enough to face me. Do not scurry away after throwing some ink or pelting a few stones."
The Hyderabad MP is no stranger to controversies.
Owaisi stirred up a storm with his 'Jai Palestine' chant along with 'Jai Bheem, Jai Meem', 'Jai Telangana' and 'Allah Hu Akbar' after his Lok Sabha MP oath, which he took in Urdu.
After the BJP condemned him for his remark, Owaisi defended his stance. "I said 'Jai Bheem, Jai Meem, Jai Telangana, Jai Palestine'. How is it wrong? Tell me the provision of the Constitution that I violated. You should also listen to what others have said. I said what I had to. Read what Mahatma Gandhi had said about Palestine," he had said.
