Mr. Owaisi does not command any authority, following and capability to break India.  Even though he says he does not want to break India, but his statements, lectures and ideology reflect anti-India posture.  He blames the backwardness of Muslims to a lack of education which is the end result of poverty.  Is it really true?  Are all Indians born in poor families illiterate in India or should I ask that all Muslims who are very well educated and holding prestigious positions were born with a silver spoon in their mouth?  I do not think any of these versions is true.  Responsibility to educate a child rests with the parents and the government.  To provide free education facilities up to a certain standard is the responsibility and duty of a given government, and then it is up to the parent to make sure that child at least attends school and avail that opportunity.  Mr. Owaisi talks about fixing a quota of scholarships for the Muslims.  I believe he is referring to scholarships where the education is not free.  Can Mr. Owaisi confirm that all the Muslim children in his constituency have at least got the minimum free education? If not, what steps has he taken to make sure they attend schools.  He is holding a very prestigious position in the Indian Parliament which further puts burden on his shoulders to work with the Muslim parents, local leaders as well as with the central government to create educational facilities, if need be, instead of blaming the poverty in the society.  As far as the provision of scholarships is concerned, I do not believe in hand-outs.  Handouts make people complacent, lethargic and unproductive. Let everyone compete for financial assistance and job opportunities.  This concept of socialism is mainly responsible keeping the minorities backward.  Like everyone else in the society, let the minorities fight for better education, better opportunities and become productive member of the society.  Next time Mr. Owaisi talks about the backwardness of his fellow brothers and sisters in his constituency and blame poverty, I think, he should question himself first what has he done to better educate them.  Are you listening Mr. Owaisi?
