In a speech in Parliament, a parliamentarian raised issues including Muslim reservation, the release of former Aligarh Muslim University Students' Union secretary Azam Khan, and the cases involving Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam. The speaker called for reservation for Muslims and said the Israeli model could not be implemented in the world's largest democracy. Addressing the use of a religious slur against another parliamentarian, he said, “If a parliamentarian calls another parliamentarian a Ka****ulla, nothing could be more unfortunate.” He also demanded the release of Azam Khan, describing him as a victim of the system. Referring to the cases involving Sharjeel Imam and Umar Khalid, the parliamentarian said no one had the right to take the law into their own hands. He added that the court had not delivered its verdict and the trials had not begun. He questioned how anyone could be called a terrorist before the court had delivered its verdict. The speech addressed Muslim reservation, parliamentary conduct and the legal proceedings involving the two activists.
