Ranjit Savarkar, grandson of Vinayak Damodar Savarkar and Chairman of Swatantryaveer Savarkar Rashtriya Smarak, on Saturday hit out at All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi and labelled him a follower of Auragzeb and a "traitor" over his remarks against the Hindutva ideologue.

He said that Owaisi's agenda was to "mislead Muslims" in India and "incite them" against the country. Ranjit went on to say that his grandfather never disrespected Sambhaji Maharaj.

"His sole agenda is to mislead the Muslims of India and incite them against the country. This is his inheritance. Savarkar never disrespected Sambhaji Maharaj. In 1944, Kasim Rizvi, an Islamic terrorist, established an organisation named Razakar in Hyderabad, whose aim was to kill, rape and convert Hindus," he added.

Establishing links between Kasim Rizvi and Owaisi's grandfather, Ranjit said that AIMIM's aim was to eliminate Muslims by inciting them against Hindus. He alleged that Owaisi was a follower of Aurangzeb's ideas, urging the government to take action against him.

"When the Indian government exiled him to Pakistan, he handed over AIMIM to Owaisi's grandfather. AIMIM's aim is to eliminate Muslims by inciting them against Hindus. Owaisi's younger brother said, 'Give India in our hands for 15 minutes and then see what we do.' Owaisi follows the ideas of Aurangzeb. The government should take action against Owaisi. He himself respects the tomb of Aurangzeb. He is a traitor," Ranjit said.

His reaction comes as Owaisi alleged that "the worst words for Sambhaji Maharaj were used by late RSS leader MS Golwalkar in his book Bunch of Thoughts and Hindutva ideologue Veer Savarkar also used the worst words for Sambhaji Maharaj."

In response to Owaisi's statement, Delhi Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa said that Veer Savarkar's service and contribution to the country cannot be forgotten.

"The service and contribution that Veer Savarkar has done for this country cannot be forgotten. If someone sees his works through the lens of a particular religion, then it is their thinking. Similarly, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is the pride of our country," Sirsa said. (ANI)
