All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi has said his party will not be contesting the upcoming assembly elections in Karnataka.
Asaduddin Owaisi told ANI, "We will not contest in upcoming Karnataka elections, AIMIM will support JDS and will campaign for them". He declared support to former PM HD Deve Gowda's Janata Dal (Secular) which is in pre-poll alliance with the Mayawati's Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP).
Owaisi also said he would himself address public meetings for the JD (S) if there is a need.
According to Owaisi, his party feels that both the national parties, the BJP and Congress, have failed to live up to the expectations and hope of the people of Karnataka and that's why they have made a decision to support the JD (S) completely. Following 2004 elections when Congress, JD (S) coalition government broke down, BJP and JD (S) reached to a deal to form a new government. Kumaraswamy should become the Chief Minister and the party led by Deve Gowda should be ruling Karnataka. "He too wants a regional party to come to power in the state, because he feels only such parties can address the issues of the people", Kumaraswamy said.
According to Narayana, more than the likely benefits for the JD (S), Owaisi's support might hurt the Congress if some votes shift.
Karnataka polls are scheduled to be held on May 12, with the counting on May 15.
Last week, the BJP announced its first list of 72 candidates for the Karnataka Assembly elections 2018. We did not contest in Gujarat, Jharkhand, Jammu and Kashmir Did not contest Lok Sabha from Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra. The campaigning for the Assembly polls is in full swing with Congress chief Rahul Gandhi and BJP president Amit Shah making multiple trips to the state.
