Owaisi Kicks Off Seemanchal Nyay Yatra, Seeks RJD Tie-Up for Six Seats in Bihar

The AIMIM chief pairs a focused Seemanchal campaign with an alliance pitch to shape seat-sharing in the 2025 Bihar race.

Overview

  • The four-day Seemanchal Nyay Yatra runs September 24–27 from Kishanganj with roadshows and corner meetings across multiple constituencies including Thakurganj, Bahadurganj, Kochadaman, Jokihat, Araria and Purnia.
  • Owaisi said a formal letter has been sent to Tejashwi Yadav seeking AIMIM’s entry into the Mahagathbandhan with six seats, warning that refusal will show voters who enables the BJP.
  • AIMIM leaders say earlier overtures to the INDIA bloc drew no response, so the party is exploring regional partnerships while preparing to field candidates in more than 20 constituencies.
  • The campaign foregrounds Seemanchal’s development gaps, backed by Owaisi’s private member’s bill proposing a Seemanchal Region Development Council under Article 371.
  • AIMIM won five Seemanchal seats in 2020 before four MLAs defected to the RJD in 2022, and the new push targets regaining those bases ahead of the state polls.
