Owaisi Vs Madhavi Latha: A Cinematic Atmosphere

Kompella Madhavi Latha is the subject of national politics now. She has turned the attention of many with her confrontation with the formidable Asaduddin Owaisi of MIM as a BJP candidate for the upcoming Lok Sabha Election from Hyderabad.

Indeed, Hyderabad Lok Sabha has been the invincible stronghold of Owaisi for almost four decades, and this is the first time someone, and that too a Hindu woman, is confronting him politically.

Kompella Madhavi Latha is a popular figure on social media in recent times, where she has been projecting her Sanatani style in speech and way of dressing. She is fluent in Suddh Hindi, Urdu, English, and of course Telugu, which happens to be her mother tongue.

As the BJP gave her a ticket to contest against Asaduddin Owaisi, the entire national media is behind her, taking interviews. The way she is presenting herself, the way she is answering with meticulous points, is quite impressive.

When asked how she can be confident of her win when 59% of the vote bank of that constituency is Muslims, she replied, "The remaining are my vote bank. The pasmandas are my vote bank. And also the Muslim women among the 59% which you have mentioned are also my vote bank as they welcome the abolition of triple talaq by the Modi-led BJP government."

She affirms that the old city was kept under darkness for decades by Owaisis and it needs percolation for the upliftment of the people of that region who feel isolated from the rest of Hyderabad.

She says that they need employment, healthcare, hygiene, education, and many things which were deprived of for the political benefit of the existing leaders of the region for decades.

She affirms that Owaisi never did equal justice to Hindus and Muslims of his constituency but only was biased towards Muslims. Had he done equal justice, the situation would have been different, she said.

Finally, in a cinematic manner, she said that she would show how it looks if warrior queen Rudramadevi comes back to life and gets into the political field of today.

In fact, her way of speech, challenges, and cinematic lines are encouraging to some and amusing to others; many are skeptical about her victory as it looks strange to imagine a Hindu BJP woman who entered politics just a couple of months ago defeating Asaduddin Owaisi in his constituency.

But she says had Sardar Patel thought so in 1949, Hyderabad wouldn't have been emancipated. She continues to say that nothing is impossible, and that word is not there in her dictionary.
