During the speech he questioned the Muslim crowd that, " If Sharad Pawar, Eknath Shinde and Uddhav Thackeray can become the chief minister and also the leaders of Maharashtra then why can't the Muslims can become the chief minister of Maharashtra. Also if all the Muslims will unite and cast the votes then Muslims can become leaders. Just by raising slogans one cannot become leaders. When discussion on developments take place then you will be able to look them in the eyes."

Known stations like Aurangabad and also many well-known locations named by Mughal's has been changed recently, but the BJP is not talking about developmental works and unemployment. The Congress, NCP and other parties are silent on the renaming issue said Owaisi.

Owaisi said, "There will be a Loksabha elections in 2024 and the Maharashtra Vidhansabha elections in 2025 so all Muslim from Mumbra and surrounding areas unite and work hard to bring Muslim person as a MLA. Also if you seen in past as well as in present no party talks about Muslim reservation. He questioned shouldn't Muslims get a reservation in Maharashtra. Maximum landless Muslims are in Maharashtra but not even a single leaders talk about it."
