Not saying “Bharat Mata ki Jai” resulted in elimination of An All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) legislator from the Maharashtra assembly on Wednesday for allegedly showing “disrespect to national heroes”.
The unanious decision was taken where all other parties agreeing to suspend ‘stubborn’ Waris Pathan – AIMIM legislator from Byculla in Mumbai , three days after his party’s chief Asaduddin Owaisi said he won’t chant “Bharat Mata ki Jai” as it wasn’t made necessary iy the Constitution.
Challenging RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, Owaisi said“I don’t chant that slogan. What are you going to do, Bhagwat sahib. I won’t utter that (slogan) even if you put a knife to my throat.”
“Nowhere in the Constitution has it said that one should say: “Bharat Mata ki Jai.”
Later noted lyricist Javed Akhtar condemned the statement in Rajya Sabha.
“There is one leader, who is not a national leader, not even a state leader but a mohalla leader of Hyderabad. He says he will not say ‘Bharat mata ki jai’ because the Constitution does not ask him to do so. The Constitution even does not ask him to wear sherwani (dress) and topi (cap),” Akhar reportedly said on Wednesday.

Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
