Meerut Police filed an FIR against UP AIMIM chief Haji Shaukat Ali for his alleged provocative speech at Lohia Nagar Police Station. Ali said, "Anyone who kills a Muslim would be killed in an encounter. Just give us 11 MLAs and not 111." Congress leader Pramod Tiwari criticised the remark, saying, "I don't agree with the language he is using."
