‘No question of supporting BJP,’ AIUDF chief Ajmal rejects Sushma Swaraj’s request for support

Our vote is always for India, Madam. The day BJP does not differentiate between Majority and Minority community, our vote will be for you. https://t.co/yLoEoCazqD

Attaching a news report, the AIUDF chief further said although he was grateful to the BJP for seeking his party’s support, there was no question of supporting the saffron party ever. “The present situation has become so communally polarized. We can’t be party to a government like this,” he added.

On Thursday, India joined the UN majority in voting for a General Assembly resolution criticising US President Donald Trump’s decision to unilaterally declare Jerusalem the capital of Israel and move Washington’s embassy there.

Passed by a two-third majority, the resolution demanded that Washington must comply with Security Council decisions against changing the status of Jerusalem and declared US and Israeli action on the city “null and void”.
