Maharashtra BJP leader and former Telugu actress, Navneet Kaur Rana, ignited a fresh controversy with her remark against AIMIM chief Akbaruddin Owaisi. Rana stated that it would only take her community 15 seconds to respond, while referring to Owaisi’s 2013 speech in Telangana where he made a similar remark about police removal for 15 minutes. Rana further campaigned for party candidate K Madhavi Latha, asserting that her victory would prevent Hyderabad from becoming another Pakistan.
