Azam Khan more dangerous than Dawood Ibrahim: Shiv Sena

Mumbai: Hitting out at Uttar Pradesh Cabinet minister Azam Khan, Shiv Sena on Tuesday said that the Samajwadi Party (SP) leader is more dangerous than India's most wanted man Dawood Ibrahim.

Shiv Sena made the scathing remarks against the powerful SP leader in its  mouthpiece Saamana.

The Shiv Sena in its mouthpiece criticised Azam Khan for seeking intervention of United Nations to look into the "miseries" of minorities in India.

In a letter to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, Khan in the month of October, had attacked RSS accusing it of working to turn secular and pluralistic India into a majoritarian theocratic nation as 'Hindu Rashtra'.

The SP leader on Sunday sparked a controversy by saying that Taj Mahal should be demolished and Shiva Temple be constructed on it.

According to a report published in News18, Azam Khan, apparently taking a dig at Shiv Sena, said that if Shiv Sena demolishes Taj Mahal to build Shiva Temple on it, then he also will offer help by shoveling.

The controversial remarks by Khan came on the 23rd anniversary of Babri Masjid's demolition.
