Modi's Uzbek Honor: A Reflection of India's Complicated History Asaduddin Owaisi, president of the All India Majlis e Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM), has taken a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's diplomatic endeavors.
This time, it's over the PM's conferment with Uzbekistan's highest state honor, the Order of "Oliy Darajali Dustlik".
Owaisi's comment about Babur, the founder of the Mughal Empire, being from Uzbekistan is not entirely inaccurate, but it's a clever dig at the BJP's selective use of history.
