Azam Khan fears Atiq-like shootout

Feared of being shot dead in a similar manner to gangster-turned politician Atiq Ahmed, Samajwadi Party senior leader Azam Khan, while campaigning in Rampur for civic polls, asked people whether they want him and his family to be killed in a similar fashion.
“What do you want from me and my children? Do you want someone to come and shoot us in head? That’s all that is left…, save Nizam-e-Hind, save the law, you don’t have to offer anything, you just have to encourage yourself. Sit wherever you get stopped and try to move forward instead of stepping back,” he said. Azam Khan who was suffering from a prolonged illness took to the stage after long time to campaign for upcoming civic polls in UP.
