Asaduddin Owaisi offers AIMIM-SP alliance to block BJP in UP

AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi has offered to form an alliance with the Samajwadi Party (SP) to prevent the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) from securing a third consecutive term in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. Speaking at a rally in Bhinga, Shravasti district, Owaisi stated that the offer is a strategic political decision aimed at stopping the BJP, rather than a sign of weakness.

Owaisi accused the BJP and the SP of engaging in a “noora kushti” (staged fight), alleging that while one party targets Muslims, the other benefits from their votes. He criticized the INDIA bloc, asserting that the AIMIM refuses to serve as a mere “vote bank” and instead demands genuine political identity and rights for Muslims.

During his address, Owaisi announced Daddan Khan as the party’s potential candidate for the Bhinga Assembly seat. He also raised concerns regarding the socio-economic conditions in the region and alleged that Muslim properties, including madrasas and graveyards, are being demolished by authorities.
