Tahir Hussain – the man who admitted to wanting to teach Kafirs a lesson during the 2020 Delhi anti-Hindu riots was let out on custody parole to canvass for votes ahead of the Delhi elections. AIMIM – the Muslim party led by barrister Asadduddin Owaisi – gave him a ticket to contest the Delhi elections from Mustafabad.
However, it looks like he won’t be entering Delhi Assembly any time soon as he is trailing BJP’s Mohan Singh Bisht by over 50,000 votes as of now. Aam Aadmi Party’s Adeel Ahmad Khan is in second place. Notably, Tahir Hussain was a councillor for Aam Aadmi Party at the time of the anti-Hindu riots in Delhi.
While he may be losing, it is a matter of concern that over 25,000 people have still voted for Tahir Hussain despite his involvement in the anti-Hindu riots in Delhi.One of the main protagonists of the sinister story was Tahir Hussain, the former AAP leader and current AIMIM candidate, who spearheaded the Delhi riots in which IB staffer Ankit Sharma was murdered brutally by his mob and several Hindu properties were burnt to ashes.
