It looks like Owaisis will help the BJP again at the National level. They are contesting the MP seats to the extent possible on an individual basis.
They are not in the INDIA block. This will divide the Muslim vote between the Congress and the MIM , paving the way for the BJP.
It is an advantage BJP again. The AIMIM announced that it has decided to contest the 16 Lok Sabha seats in Bihar.
State President Akhtarul Imam said that party candidates will contest the Darbhanga, Pataliputra, Kishanganj, Madhubani, Katihar, Muzaffarpur, Gopalganj, Sheohar, Purnea, Araria, Sitamarhi, Karakat, Maharajganj, Samastipur, Paschim Champaran and Valmiki Nagar seats.
The MIM may win around dozen seats in all with great difficulty across the country and even Hyderabad is also tough for Owaisi this time.
Both Asad and Akbaruddin Owaisi are attending the Iftars daily across Hyderabad. They are helping the poor muslims in the name of festival but this will add to the election campaign also.
They are meeting voters taking selfies distributing food and money covers in the masjids. The Education Foundation of Owaisis is giving food for iftar in masjids.
