AIMIM President Asaduddin Owaisi caused a political stir during his oath-taking ceremony in the Lok Sabha by expressing solidarity with Palestine and hailing Telangana. BJP's Radha Mohan Singh, presiding over the session, assured that only the official oath would be recorded following strong objections from BJP lawmakers. Owaisi defended his statements, invoking Mahatma Gandhi's views on Palestine. Union Minister Shobha Karandlaje sought action against Owaisi's remarks, urging a retake of the oath. This incident coincides with ongoing Speaker selection deliberations, with BJP nominating Om Birla and the INDIA bloc nominating K Suresh.
