Owaisi Demands Six Seats to Join INDIA Bloc During Bihar Seemanchal Push

A formal request to Tejashwi Yadav follows a Seemanchal tour spotlighting long-standing neglect.

Overview

  • Owaisi launched a four-day Seemanchal Nyay Yatra from Kishanganj, staging roadshows and corner meetings across multiple constituencies through September 27.
  • He said AIMIM has formally written to Tejashwi Yadav seeking six seats and declared the party ready to enter the RJD-led alliance on that basis.
  • RJD leaders have not issued a clear response, keeping open the prospect of AIMIM contesting independently across a wider map than in 2020.
  • AIMIM signals it may field candidates in more than 20 constituencies, recalling its 2020 wins in five Seemanchal seats before four MLAs defected to the RJD in 2022.
  • The campaign emphasizes Seemanchal’s development gaps, referencing Owaisi’s bill for a Seemanchal Region Development Council, as observers caution that failed talks could split minority votes.
