AIMIM leader Akbaruddin Owaisi hit back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's infiltrator remarks during a campaign rally. Modi had said that if Congress came to power, it would redistribute the wealth to infiltrators and those who have more children.

Asserting that Modi was targetting Muslims, Owaisi said such statements do not augur well from the prime minister of the country.

"My brother Assad and I are often accused of giving inflammatory remarks. Then, what should we make of Modi's remarks? Is it right? Are we (Muslims) infiltrators? Do we produce more children? Do you know how many siblings Atal Bihari Vajpayee had... It is said Muslims have more children and Vajpayee and his siblings were 7 in number... Yogi Adityanath and his siblings are 7 in number... Amit Shah and his siblings are also 7 in number. Narendra Modi and his siblings are 6 in number." 

"We are those who have given the Taj Mahal, Qutab Minar, Red Fort, Jama Masjid and Char Minar to this nation. We have decorated this nation. We are not infiltrators. We belong to this nation. This nation is ours and will be ours," he said.
