The legislator declared him and his elder brother as 'International figures' and stated that the AIUDF party is not limited to Assam alone as it is a national party now.

 

"I cannot speak Assamese; hence, I am speaking in English. AIUDF party is not limited to Assam alone, it's a national party now and my brother Maulana Badruddin Ajmal is an 'International Figure' so everyone should know it in English. It's my choice, I can speak in any language," said the MLA of Jamunamukh.
