Big Parties Treated Me Like Untouchable: Asaduddin Owaisi, Who Has 5 Seats

Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi's party AIMIM has won three and is leading in two assembly seats in Bihar, where votes are still being counted late into the night. The All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul-Muslimeen had entered Bihar in 2019 after winning by-elections in five seats. "In politics, you learn from your mistake. Our Bihar chief personally met with each and every leader of political parties. No one was ready to touch us. Big parties treated me like an untouchable... Our party president met every important Muslim leader as well. But nothing worked out. Cannot tell you why it didn't happen," Mr Owaisi said, adding he expected the party would perform better. The AIMIM will decide later which party it will support, Mr Owaisi told NDTV.
