After the controversy over Aurangzeb, Abu Azmi was suspended from the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly. He has been suspended for the current session. Let us tell you that Chandrakant Patil, a minister in the Maharashtra government, had presented a proposal to suspend Abu Azmi from the assembly session.

He said that I am not that big. Whatever I said was actually the statement of some historians. If anyone is hurt due to these statements of mine, then I apologize unconditionally and take back my statement.

Summary

Let us tell you that a case has been registered against him in Thane, Maharashtra for his statement on Aurangzeb. Azmi had given a statement defending Aurangzeb that I do not consider the 17th century Mughal emperor Aurangzeb to be a cruel, tyrannical or intolerant ruler.
