MIM in MH

Mohammed Younus/ Hyderabad: With barely five days left for campaigning in Maharashtra, the Owaisi brothers intensified their electioneering along with other Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen legislators. Party president Asaduddin Owaisi is spearheading the campaign in Maharashtra. All party MLAs and floor leader in Telangana Assembly Akbaruddin Owaisi are camping in different constituencies where the party has fielded its candidates.

Asaduddin and Akbaruddin Owaisi visited 25 Assembly constituencies, including 13 from Mumbai and delivered speeches in 20 major public meetings. MIM is focusing more in areas where the Muslim population is considerable and exploring the issues of Muslims and the anti-incumbency factor against the previous governments. The party is going ahead with the Dalit-Muslim unity slogan and the party leaders, especially Owaisi brothers managed to draw large crowds during their public meetings held in Parbhani, Sholapur, Aurangabad, Bhiwandi, Nagpada and Mumbra-Kalwa constituencies of Mumbai.

The party sources said that it was the right time for the party to witness a miracle in the polls as both the coalitions of BJP-Shiv Sena and Congress-NCP were broken up. The party leaders believe that it can bag at least five seats out of 25 candidates they have fielded. Sources said that party could perform better in the Marathwada region, but the situation in other constituencies cannot be unpredicted. The Owaisi brothers are meeting with the religious and community leaders in the region.

Though the party is winning accolades from the people, police were not in the favour instead they arecreating hurdles for the leaders by not giving permission to speak in the public meetings. Recently, Akbaruddin Owaisi was stopped from delivering a speech in citing his reportedly provocative speeches in the past, under section 149 of CRPC.
