Several outlets report that AIMIM leader Asaduddin Owaisi criticizes Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recognition from Uzbekistan, making a “Babur” reference while targeting the BJP. The remarks are presented as a political counterpoint to the honour Modi received from the Uzbek side.

India Today and Times of India frame the exchange as a dig at the BJP and Modi, with Owaisi using the historical figure Babur as part of his argument. While both outlets describe the same general thrust—Owaisi’s public jibe in response to the Uzbekistan-related honour—the coverage focuses on different emphases, such as how the remark is phrased and who is directly being blamed or targeted in the political context. Across reports, the core event remains that Owaisi comments on Modi’s Uzbekistan honour and links it to his broader critique of the ruling party.

No consensus details in the provided excerpts cover the specific nature of the Uzbekistan honour, the date it is granted, or whether any official response has been issued. The reports mainly highlight Owaisi’s statement and its use in domestic political debate.
