Is AIMIM Committed To Winning 15 MLAs In The Coming Assembly Election?

Hyderabad, Sept 28 (Maxim News):  Is AIMIM headed by the Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi committed to at least winning 15 MLAs and contesting in around 50 seats across the state in the 2023 Assembly elections.

The plan, if stuck, could spell trouble for the ruling BRS which regards Muslims as its vote bank except in the seven segments of Hyderabad.  This is especially true when it is facing the BJP onslaught.  The Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi-led party has been an informal ally of Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao since the state’s formation in 2014.  

The aspired figure is double the number of seven MLAs the Muslim vote-based party has been maintaining in Telangana – all from Hyderabad, since 2009, Telangana has a total of 119 Assembly constituencies.  Akbaruddin’s interesting pledge now came 

Chandrayangutta MLA Akbaruddin Owaisi and younger brother of Asaduddin Owaisi’s interesting pledge now came during the debate in the house on the motion of thanks to Telangana Governor Tamilisai Soundara Rajan’s budget session address  The Chandrayangutta MLA, was reportedly reacted to a taunt by BRS Minister K.Tarak Rama Rao that “the AIMIM is only a party of seven.”

“I have taken a very serious note of the comment passed on AIMIM.  I will talk to my party president to see if we contest more seats in the coming elections.  We will make sure we come here with at least 15 MLAs by contesting in 50 seats.  I hope to make our Chief agree to my plan of achieving more MLAs instead of seven, Akbaruddin said in the Assembly. “And then we’ll work together once again with BRS, Akbaruddin added mockingly.

The AIMIM opened its legislative accounts in Maharashtra, and Bihar, but its tally back home remained at seven in the previous three elections, 2009, 2014, and 2018, regardless of the number of seats contested in United Andhra Pradesh and Telangana later (Maxim News)
