Speaking at the national seminar organized by Al Mahd-al-Ali on the contribution of Muslims in India’s development, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi said that Muslims love India, but it does not mean that they should turn away from their religion. He said that Muslims have always contributed to the development of the country and will continue to contribute in the future also.

Owaisi said, “A person remains loyal to the land of his ancestors. We are loyal to India. Prophet Muhammad had said that loyalty to the country is the nature of Islam. We love our country and our Constitution gives us the freedom to practice our religion.”

Owaisi counted the contribution of Muslims
Remembering the contribution of Muslims in the development of the country, many names were counted. Brigadier Usman, Abdul Hameed, APJ Abdul Kalam, Salim Ali, Syed Zahir Qasim, Ibrahim Ali, Anwar Baksh Siddiqui, Advocate Hasan Manna Qureshi, Sami Saud, Ihtesham Hussain, Ubaid Siddiqui, Azim Premji, Yusuf Ali, Fatima Shaikh, Rabia Shahnawaz Shaikh and Tajammul who provided ventilator facilities during Covid. And Muzammil Taufiq and Hussain Pathan.

‘We did not throw the shoe’
Owaisi said, “Our mosque was martyred, but the Supreme Court says that no one was martyred. If you suppress Muslims, then how will you take India forward? We love the country, that is why we did not throw the shoe after the court’s decision.” Referring to historical injustices, he said, “8 lakh Muslims were deported to Bangladesh in 1962. The 1969 riots in Assam were worse than 2002. We have been witness to many injustices and riots. After the Babri Verdict, no one threw a shoe at the judge.”

‘Those who could not build a room in the Madrasa’
Owaisi said that efforts to make Muslims second class citizens will never succeed. He further said that those who could not build a room in the Madrasa are making ammonium nitrate. We will have to stand against such people also. He appealed to all the citizens to unite and said that everyone will have to work together for the development of the country.

What did Owaisi say in Bihar rally?

Owaisi said that we are ready to support Nitish Kumar’s government. Seemanchal should get its justice. Development should not be limited to Patna and Rajgir only. The areas of Seemanchal are struggling with fundamental problems including migration and corruption.
He has also made it clear that he will keep a close watch on the work of his elected MLAs. He said, our five MLAs will sit in their offices two days a week. You will also share your live location with me. He has also said that he will visit these areas every 6 months.

AIMIM MLA had joined RJD

In the recently held assembly elections, NDA has won 14 seats in Seemanchal area. This time Owaisi has won 5 seats in these areas. Even in the year 2020, his party had won 5 seats here, but at that time 4 MLAs had joined RJD.

Owaisi captures five seats of Seemanchal

This time’s elections have decided how much these areas of Seemanchal trust his party. His party has made its candidates win on five seats here. There is a sizeable Muslim population in these areas. Kosi river also flows through these areas. Only Kosi flood affects these areas. These areas are surrounded by rural population.

Let us tell you, this time NDA has won the Bihar Assembly elections with a huge majority. At the same time, the Grand Alliance has won very few seats as expected. Nitish Kumar has taken oath as the Chief Minister of the state for the 10th time.

The era of speculation in Assam politics sometimes becomes more heated than reality and a recent case is a big example of this. For the last few days, there was a lot of discussion that Maulana Badruddin Ajmal’s party All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF) and Congress are negotiating for an electoral agreement in Assam on the basis of a seat sharing formula.

The purpose of this alliance was said to be to prepare a strong opposition front against the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Assam, due to which the political temperature in the state was rising, but amidst all these speculations, AIMIM has issued a big statement and put an end to the political speculations.

AIMIM Gave a big statement regarding Assam

In fact, the party All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) led by Lok Sabha MP Asaduddin Owaisi has shared a post on the social media platform X on Tuesday (November 18, 2025). The party has clarified in a social media post that some rumors are being spread in the media regarding AIMIM in Assam, but all of them are completely baseless and wrong.

AIMIM clearly said that neither the party has taken any decision to start its political activities in Assam nor does it have any intention of forming an alliance with any party in the state. This announcement is a direct attack on the reports that AIMIM was being included in the political equation of Assam.

AIMIM After the statement of Congress and AIUDF focus on proximity to

This announcement by AIMIM, a party led by Hyderabad Lok Sabha MP Asaduddin Owaisi, has clearly answered many questions in the politics of Assam, but the focus will now intensify on the growing closeness between Congress and All India United Democratic Front (AIUDF). This statement of the party also clearly shows that AIMIM is currently focusing only on strengthening its existing strongholds and not on entering the political and electoral fray of new states.

In the Bihar Assembly elections, Asaduddin Owaisi’s party All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) has performed brilliantly and won 5 seats. National President of All India Muslim Jamaat, Maulana Mufti Shahabuddin Razvi Barelvi has given a statement on this. He said in an interview to IANS, “AIMIM President Asaduddin Owaisi performed very well in Bihar elections. He has been playing a special role in Seemanchal for some time. However, it is not only the responsibility of the Muslims to stop the BJP, but it is also the responsibility of the parties calling themselves secular to stop the BJP.

The results of Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 show that Seemanchal has now become a permanent and strong political base of AIMIM. Out of 243 seats in the state, the party contested only 25 seats and won 5 seats. This figure may seem small, but its importance is huge, because AIMIM got deep public support in these 5 areas and it proved that the trust in the party among the voters of Seemanchal is continuously increasing. These include seats like Jokihat, Bahadurganj, Kochadhaman, Amour and Bayasi, where the leadership with local identity like Murshid Alam, Tausif Alam, Sarwar Alam, Akhtarul Iman and Ghulam Sarwar was successful in registering victory easily.

Special message from Asaduddin Owaisi

AIMIM President Asaduddin Owaisi seems very happy with the spectacular victory in Bihar. On this special occasion, on Sunday (16 November 2025), he wrote on

After the Bihar election results, demand has started rising in the Samajwadi Party to include Asaduddin Owaisi in the ‘India’ alliance. Former MP Dr. S.T. Hasan has said that he will openly talk to SP National President Akhilesh Yadav on this issue. Owaisi’s party AIMIM has won 5 seats in Bihar assembly elections. Along with this, he has demanded death penalty for the doctors involved in the Delhi Red Fort blast.

VHP Central Management Committee member Dr. Rajkamal Gupta has described VHP spokesperson Vinod Bansal’s name plate statement as a personal statement. He said, “I am also a doctor and no doctor can harm a patient sitting on the chair, but involvement of doctors in incidents is dangerous for the country.”

The results of Bihar Assembly elections are going to be declared today and everyone’s eyes are especially on the Muslim dominated assembly seats. Bihar has about 18 percent Muslim population, hence there should be at least 44 Muslim MLAs. However, since 1951 till now, such a number of Muslim MLAs have never emerged victorious. This time it remains to be seen how many Muslim candidates will be successful in making a place in the assembly.

What is the status of Muslim candidates?

In Bihar Assembly elections, both NDA and Grand Alliance have placed their bets on Muslim candidates. The grand alliance led by Tejashwi Yadav has fielded 30 Muslim candidates, while the NDA led by Nitish Kumar has fielded 5 Muslim candidates. In this way, there is direct competition between Muslim candidates on seats like Araria, Jokihat, Bahadurganj and Amour.

History of Muslim representation in Bihar

A total of 19 Muslim MLAs were elected in the 2020 elections of 243 seats in Bihar, which included 8 from RJD, 4 from Congress, 5 from AIMIM, 1 from CPI(ML) and 1 from BSP.
