In the lead-up to the Hyderabad Lok Sabha elections, BJP candidate Madhavi Latha has been embroiled in controversy due to a viral video where she is seen mimicking firing an arrow from atop a vehicle, allegedly towards a mosque. This act has led to accusations of attempting to incite communal tension, prompting calls for the Election Commission of India (ECI) to take action. The video has been criticized for being selectively edited. In response, Madhavi Latha questioned the presence of a mosque in the video, suggesting the controversy might be manufactured. AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi has utilized this incident in his campaign, urging voters to remember the video when voting. Concurrently, Owaisi has faced backlash from the BJP for his remarks on beef, which have been deemed controversial and inappropriate by various political figures, including Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. A complaint has been sent to the EC, as reported by Siddhartha Talya, claiming that the statements undermine the sanctity of the electoral process. Additionally, Telangana Deputy CM Bhatti Vikramarka called Owaisi's beef remarks 'unfortunate'.
