BJP Leaders Criticize AIMIM-ASP Alliance Ahead of Uttar Pradesh Elections

New Delhi, November 12 (Daily Kiran) : The political landscape in Uttar Pradesh is heating up as the AIMIM and the Azad Samaj Party (ASP) prepare for the upcoming assembly elections. BJP MLA Ram Kadam stated that Asaduddin Owaisi and Chandrashekhar Azad have acknowledged their inability to challenge the BJP alone, prompting them to seek each other’s support.

Uttar Pradesh Minister Bhupendra Singh Chaudhary asserted that the BJP has been the true agent of social change, emphasizing the party’s efforts under Prime Minister Modi over the past decade to uplift all societal classes. He highlighted that the BJP is committed to the social, economic, educational, and political advancement of diverse communities, including women and scheduled castes, and enjoys significant public trust.

Kadam remarked that whether Owaisi and Azad hold a joint press conference is their personal choice. However, he noted that forming an alliance to contest elections is a democratic right. He questioned the effectiveness of their collaboration, asking what concrete plans they have for the development, education, and law-and-order situation in Uttar Pradesh. He suggested that their primary aim might be to protect their political interests.

BJP leader Ghulam Ali Khatana expressed confidence in the party’s policies, asserting that the electorate continues to support the BJP and that they will secure victory in Uttar Pradesh once again.

Sajid Rashidi, president of the All India Imam Association, criticized Owaisi for allegedly trying to create unnecessary drama to establish his presence in Uttar Pradesh politics. He accused Owaisi of jeopardizing Muslim votes and questioned why he is fielding candidates in constituencies that already have Muslim representatives. Rashidi’s comments reflect a growing concern about the potential fragmentation of the Muslim vote in the state.
