Owaisi And Chandrashekhar Announce Alliance For UP Polls On All Seats - Latest Key Updates

In a major political development ahead of the upcoming Uttar Pradesh assembly elections in the year 2027, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi and Azad Samaj Party (Kanshi Ram) national president Chandrashekhar Azad have officially announced a new political front. Both leaders have joined hands to form the Samajik Parivartan Morcha in the state. The formal announcement of this alliance was made through a joint press conference held on Thursday, where key leaders from both parties were present. Under this joint front, Chandrashekhar Azad will be the chief ministerial face and candidate for the upcoming 2027 Uttar Pradesh assembly elections. This major political move is widely expected to reshape the political equations in Uttar Pradesh.

Addressing the joint press conference, Azad Samaj Party chief Chandrashekhar Azad stated in clear terms that their new Samajik Parivartan Morcha will bring about a massive change in power in the state in the year 2027. Launching a sharp attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party, he said that to defeat the BJP, there should have been a large and solid alliance in the state, but due to extreme arrogance among certain political leaders, this couldn't materialize in time. Expanding his statement, Chandrashekhar Azad extended an open invitation to the Samajwadi Party and the Congress party to join this new front as well, while he appealed that the Samajwadi Party and Congress should also become a part of this Samajik Parivartan Morcha. He further announced that they will now contest the elections together with Owaisi on all four hundred and three assembly seats of Uttar Pradesh with full force.

Levelling serious allegations against the current state government, Chandrashekhar Azad said that mosques were martyred during the tenure of this government, and permissions aren't even granted to organize events in the name of Bahujan icons. He also alleged that statues are being broken under the rule of the current government. Elaborating further, Chandrashekhar Azad said that this isn't a third front, but a front dedicated to bringing about social change. It's strong and will grow even stronger in the days to come. As people from the marginalized, deprived, exploited, and oppressed sections of society connect with it, this front will emerge as a massive force for those who feel victimized, helpless, and exploited today.

Recalling past promises made to the public, Chandrashekhar Azad targeted opposition parties and previous governments. He said that previous leaders and parties had promised to eradicate their poverty and helplessness and to put an end to atrocities, caste violence, and oppression against them, but it all turned out to be a deception, while those who talked about uplifting them and bringing them into the mainstream went on to become MLAs, MPs, chief ministers, and even the prime minister of the country, yet this marginalized Bahujan community still stands right where it has always been. He stated that the bitter truth is that governments kept changing and announcements kept being made, but even today the Bahujan community remains deprived of basic amenities.

Expressing his views on the formation of the alliance, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi said that they've taken an important decision to form the Samajik Parivartan Morcha after careful consideration. He stated with conviction that this will be a strong front to prevent the Bharatiya Janata Party from coming to power in Uttar Pradesh for a third consecutive term. Owaisi strongly alleged that the oppressed and downtrodden people have always been used merely as voters. He stated that due to the flawed policies of this government, unemployment has been written into the destiny of the youth of Uttar Pradesh. He reiterated that Chandrashekhar Azad will be the chief ministerial candidate of the Samajik Parivartan Morcha and the front will contest elections across all four hundred and three assembly seats. He also informed that a special meeting has been scheduled for November 26 to plan the future roadmap. Now a new beginning of social change is about to take place in Uttar Pradesh, and they will practice future politics by standing with the people of Uttar Pradesh and Chandrashekhar Azad to fulfill the battle for justice.

During the press conference, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi also took a jibe at Union Minister Giriraj Singh. Owaisi sarcastically said that he prays for Giriraj to recover and attain good health as soon as possible, and advised him to worry about his health while in the hospital. Owaisi added that he wants to ask people in the BJP to talk about the two security personnel who were martyred in Kishtwar, Jammu and Kashmir. Reacting to this, Chandrashekhar stated that they don't need to prove their patriotism to anyone in the country, and demanded that the government should answer why it's failing to protect the nation and its borders.
