Is there a vaccine for a #HateVirus?

Passionate. Compelling. Scathing.

In a two-part interview, *ASADUDDIN OWAISI *— chief of AIMIM — takes on wide-ranging prejudices against Muslims, admits to faultlines and mistakes. Holds a mirror up to India. And spells out a new path.

From protests to riots. Accusations to arrests. Triple Talak to Tablighi Jamaat. History to Hindutva. Communalism to secularism. He fields questions on it all.

Do watch: “How do you get equality & justice in India,” he asks in Part 1. And lays out some unexpected answers. 

Do watch: “Muslims can no longer be the coolies of secularism”, he says in Part 2. Does that mean a competitive communalism? Or something more healing?
