Lucknow, June 15: Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan on Friday launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi while reacting to the killings of Indian Army jawan Aurangzeb Khand and Rising Kashmir Editor Shujaat Bukhari. He also took a jibe at PM Modi's fitness challenge video, saying while innocent people, journalists, jawans are dying, the PM is busy with his own fitness.

"Sena ke jawan ki hatya, patrakar ki hatya, imandaar ki, majdoor ki, chhatra ki hatya sab peechhe reh gaye. Pehle fitness kariye...Udhar jawan maare ja rahe theyy aur desh ke Pradhanmantri dand-baithak laga rahe theyy...Pradhanmantri fit desh unfit (A soldier's killing, journalist's killing, honest man's killing, student's killing have all taken a backseat. You are more busy with fitness. Our soldiers were dying and our prime minister was busy doing sit-ups. PM fit, country unfit)," Azam Khan said.

Indian Army jawan Aurangzeb Khan and Rising Kashmir Editor Shujaat Bukhariwere shot dead by terrorists in two separate incidents on Thursday. Among the dead were also Ct Abdul Hameed and Ct Mumtaz Ahmad who were deployed in Bukhari's security. There has been no word on the two incidents from the Prime Minister yet.
