Overview

• Asaduddin Owaisi said state president Akhtarul Iman has contacted Congress, RJD and other opposition leaders to explore a united front against the NDA
• The party formally wrote to the Election Commission on June 28 seeking to halt the one-month Special Intensive Revision of Bihar’s electoral rolls
• AIMIM argues the expedited process is legally questionable and risks stripping genuine voters, especially the poor, of their franchise
• Owaisi alleged the revision amounts to a backdoor National Register of Citizens by demanding extensive birth and parental documents
• While alliance talks are pending, AIMIM has made clear it will field candidates across Bihar, including Seemanchal, if no agreement is reached
