Polling for the first phase of elections in Bihar is over, but the battle for the state becomes both intense and interesting as AIMIM emerges as a part of the third front in the Assembly elections.
While campaigning in Bihar's Kishanganj, AIMIM President Asaduddin Owaisi spoke exclusively to The Quint, talking on a range of issues, including CAA-NRC, expectations over winning seats to Mahagathbandhan and more.
When asked if the AIMIM is BJP’s B-Team in Bihar, Owaisi questioned the BJP’s ability to secure one seat from the 40 during the Lok Sabha Elections, while the AIMIM had fought on just one seat during the elections. He added: "They [the Opposition] won one out of 40 seats and are calling us B-Team? Lalu's family also lost the seats, so are they vote-cutters?"
The AIMIM chief added:
Reasserting what he said about Nitish Kumar in one of his political rallies, Owaisi said, "I think Nitish Kumar's political career would end with this election."
