Sameer Waliullah alleged that the leadership of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen (AIMIM) has utterly failed to bring about any development in Hyderabad. “MIM has been winning the Hyderabad seat since 1984, but the constituency has remained stagnant for 40 years. There has been no improvement in infrastructure, literacy rate, basic amenities, employment, or other parameters. Only the Congress party can bring the necessary change to Hyderabad,” he emphasized.
The Congress leader further accused MIM President and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi of causing significant damage to Muslim interests across the country. “Asaduddin Owaisi used his speeches and media statements as a tool to strengthen the BJP and Sangh Parivar nationwide. By engaging in communal politics, he fueled the Sangh Parivar, ultimately aiding the BJP in strengthening its presence in many states,” he asserted.

Sameer Waliullah dismissed Asaduddin Owaisi’s claims of being the sole representative of Muslims in India. He highlighted that the Congress party has produced numerous Muslim leaders who served as MLAs, MLCs, MPs, ministers, and even Chief Ministers in states like Maharashtra. According to Sameer Waliullah, the Congress party nurtured Muslim leadership capable of serving all communities in a truly secular manner. He accused Owaisi of suppressing Muslim leadership in other secular parties by projecting himself as the exclusive representative of the Muslim community.
The Congress leader argued that MIM has never allowed Muslim leaders from secular parties like Congress to flourish. As an example, he pointed out MIM’s damaging role in ensuring the defeat of two Muslim candidates from the Congress party in the recently concluded Assembly elections – Mohammad Ali Shabbir in Nizamabad Urban and Mohd Azharuddin in Jubilee Hills. Sameer Waliullah declared that the time has come to end MIM’s communal politics, asserting that change would begin with the victory of the Congress party in the Hyderabad Lok Sabha seat. As the President of the Hyderabad DCC, he stated that he has already intensified party activities in all seven Assembly segments, and a detailed strategy is being prepared for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
