The All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) is eyeing an expansion in Uttar Pradesh with the party having set its sights on the urban local body elections. The Hyderabad-headquartered party has fielded its candidates across posts.
The urban local body polling is scheduled in two phases. While the first phase is on May 4, the second is slated for May 11. The counting will be on May 13.
At a recent press conference organised soon after gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed and his brother were killed, Hyderabad parliamentarian Asaduddin Owaisi told the media that his party’s expansion in Uttar Pradesh would remain unchanged.
