00:00A demand for the Muslim quota in Uttar Pradesh by the Congress Party.
00:04The Muslim face, so to say, for the Congress Party is making a big demand vis-à-vis the seats.
00:09Congress's minority wing, Deputy Chief, Hazib Khan, has spoken up and said
00:13that there should be 100 seats in Uttar Pradesh for the Muslim community members.
00:20They're at the centre of Congress's Abhijwadi Party Alliance and Congress Nita maintains
00:2520% Muslims are not here to vote alone. Only Muslim picks in Muslim majority seats is what he's saying.
00:33And basically referring to how there has to be a maximum representation of the Muslim community members.
00:39And he is partially correct when he says that in terms of when you look at the voting pattern in
00:46Uttar Pradesh,
00:47Samajwadi Party and the Congress Alliance usually have got a majority Muslim vote.
00:53And he says if that's happening, who are we voting for?
00:55We need 100 seats from Muslim members in the Assembly.
01:00Let's listen in to Hazib Khan.
01:0320% की आवादी के हिसाब से 403 सीटों में 100 सीटों पे मुसलमानों का हक तो बनता ही है.
01:11सभी लोग की नारा लगा रहे हैं, जिसकी जितनी हिस्सेदारी उसकी उतनी भागेदारी.
01:15तो मुसलमान 20% है, तो 403 सीटों में कम से कम हमारा 100 सीटों का तो हक बनता है
01:22मुसलमानों का.
01:23403 सीटों में 100 सीटें कम से कम मुसलमानों को लड़ना चाहिए.
01:26तो समाजवादी से टिकता हमको अकले सादो जी नहीं दिया था 2022 मैं, मैं यह नहीं कह रहा हूँ कि
01:32नहीं दिये थे, इसलिए मैं चाहिए.
01:34लेकिन जादा से जादा देना चाहिए.
01:57Now what Congress's unit's Deputy Chief here is saying of the Muslim wing, that when the Muslims are voting, especially
02:05for the Congress and Majmadi Party Alliance, and they usually vote in mass, especially if it's an alliance, we then
02:11want a representation of the Muslim candidates as well, and that means for the seats, at least 100 seats in
02:17Uttar Pradesh, must go to Muslim candidates if they are at the center of Congress and SP Alliance.
02:2220% Muslims are not here to vote alone, so there should be, in Muslim majority seat areas, there should
02:30be only a Muslim candidate.
02:32Now remember how it happens usually when it comes to candidates, if there are reservations, that is usually about and
02:38with regard to caste equations or even a woman seat.
02:42The Muslim majority seat, so Muslim majority areas, to have a Muslim pick is usually out of choice, looking at
02:49the political permutations combinations, but to really ask for it and say it must be done because that's the reason
02:55we are voting for the Congress, Samajwadi Party could be a catch-22 when it comes to the Samajwadi Party
03:01and the Congress Party.
03:02And for this alliance to go through, there will be a lot of discussions to happen, and one of this
03:07will be on agenda.
03:08Ashish Srivastava is joining me for the latest from Uttar Pradesh.
03:11Ashish, go ahead, tell me more about what Haseeb Khan has said, what are his expectations from this alliance?
03:20Ashish Srivastava is joining us.
04:08Ashish Srivastava is joining us.
04:25Ashish Srivastava is joining us.
04:57Stay with me, because I want the viewer to listen in again to that exclusive conversation
05:01that you've had. Here's what Haseeb Khan is saying. Let's listen in to these expectations
05:06and how it would be on agenda of discussions for Congress and Samaj Wadi.
05:18We have to say that the people who have raised their own, the people who have been raised their own.
05:22So, the Muslims have 20% of the population.
05:25So, in 403 cities, we have to make 100 cities more than 100 cities.
05:29In 403 cities, we should have to make 100 cities more than 100 cities.
05:33The government has not given the ticket to the government in 2022.
05:38I did not say that we did not give them, but we need to give more.
