- Owaisi backs AIUDF and Badruddin Ajmal in Assam polls
- AIMIM chief targets BJP hate politics, Congress silence
Hyderabad, April 3: AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi urged Muslims to vote unitedly for the AIUDF in the upcoming Assam assembly elections. He made the appeal while addressing a rally in the Binnakandi constituency. The elections are scheduled to be held on April 9.
Owaisi campaigned in favour of AIUDF candidate and party chief Badruddin Ajmal. He asserted that Muslim voters would support the party collectively. He said, “Muslims will cast their votes unitedly and Badruddin Ajmal’s 29 candidates will win. Assam’s politics will be decided by the AIUDF.”
Owaisi Targets BJP Hate Politics, Congress Silence
During the rally, Owaisi alleged that the ruling BJP is indulging in “hate politics.” He also said the Congress is “silent” against it. He claimed that this situation would help the AIUDF gain support from Muslim minorities in the state.
He further criticised eviction drives carried out by the BJP-led Assam government. He described these drives as “completely unconstitutional.” He said, “Badruddin Ajmal went to the Supreme Court against it. The apex court ordered that if it is forest land, then give alternate land. Otherwise, do not displace them.”
Minority Rights, NRC and CAA Raise Concerns
Owaisi claimed that the Assam government displaced 50,000 people. He called it a “big injustice and violation of human rights” and “just hatred.” He also said the Muslim community in Assam has faced problems for many years.
He stated that security and rights of minorities have not been ensured. He said, “I have come to Assam for a special purpose. I have come to speak out for the rights and protection of Miya Muslims in Assam.”
Owaisi also criticised both the BJP and earlier Congress governments. He referred to their “negative steps” regarding NRC and CAA. He added, “The minority community has been used for only political gains in Assam for decades… The community’s citizenship issue should not be used for political mileage.
Meanwhile, the AIMIM chief continued to push for unity among Muslim voters. He emphasised that such unity would shape the political outcome in Assam. The rally reflected his focus on minority rights and electoral influence in the state.
