AIMIM has held the Lok Sabha seat for the Hyderabad constituency since 1984. In the 2014 Telangana Legislative Assembly elections, the party won seven seats and received recognition as a 'state party' by the Election Commission of India.[10]

For much of its existence, it had little presence beyond old Hyderabad. However, in more recent years, it has begun expanding into other states. It now has a significant presence in Maharashtra, with Imtiyaz Jaleel winning the Aurangabad constituency and with multiple members elected to the Legislative Assembly.[11] It has also made inroads in Bihar, winning five Legislative Assembly seats in 2020.[12]

Origins

AIMIM was originally founded as Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) in 1927 by Nawab Mahmood Nawaz Khan Qiledar of Hyderabad State in the presence of Ulma-e-Mashaeqeen as a pro-Pakistan party.[13] The first meeting was held in the house of Nawaz Khan on 12 November 1927. MIM shunned integration with India and advocated the setting up of a "Ashraf dominion" in India.[14][15][16] In 1938, Bahadur Yar Jung was elected president of the MIM. At that time it had only a cultural and religious manifesto. It soon acquired a political complexion. After the death of Bahadur Yar Jang in 1944, Qasim Rizvi was elected as its leader.[17] Indian government, after police action (named operation polo), merged Hyderabad state with India and arrested Razakars including its leader Qasim Rizvi. He was released from jail in 1957 with condition that he will go to Pakistan.

Qaaid-e-Millat Nawab Bahadur Yar Jung led MIM from 1938 to 1944


In 1958, before he left for Pakistan, Razvi nominated Abdul Wahid Owaisi as his successor. Abdul Wahed Owaisi, a lawyer organised the party into the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen.[18][19] Under his leadership, the AIMIM shifted from a hardline policy of independence to a pragmatic direction.[20] After Abdul Wahed Owaisi, his son Sultan Salahuddin Owaisi took control of AIMIM in 1975 and was referred to as Salar E Millat (commander of the community).[21][22] AIMIM President, Asaduddin Owaisi says that AIMIM is not the descendant of Razakars.[23]

Former RJD and JD(U) leader and Kochadhaman MLA Akhtarul Iman joined AIMIM in 2015, he was made state president of the party in Bihar. Akhtarul Iman contested 2015 Bihar Assembly Elections from Kochadhaman seat on AIMIM ticket against seating JD(U) MLA and Mahagathbandhan Candidate Mujahid Alam. Iman's popularity in his home constituency could not win him election in 2015 due to strong favour of Muslims voters towards Mahagathbandhan candidates. State President Akhtarul Iman[38] contested from Kishanganj Lok Sabha on AIMIM ticket in the 2019 Indian general election.[39] In triangular contest among Akhtarul Iman, Congress candidate Dr. Jawaid Azad and JD(U) candidate Mahmood Ashraf, Dr. Jawaid Azad won the elections with a comfortable margin and Akhtarul Iman was at third position.

Later that year, Qamrul Hoda won the bye election from Kishanganj Assembly Constituency on AIMIM ticket defeating Congress candidate Dr. Jawaid Azad's mother.[40] The seat was left vacant after Dr. Jawaid Azad's victory in the Lok Sabha election.

However, in the 2022 Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly election[48] AIMIM faced a significant setback as the party did not win any of the 100 seats it contested. In several constituencies, AIMIM's presence had an impact on the distribution of votes among secular parties, indirectly contributing to BJP's success. This situation led to AIMIM being referred to as a "BJP Agent" by various opposition leaders.[49][50][51][52][53]

Prakash Rao, A. Satyanarayana and Alampalli Pochaiah.[71] A Muralidhar Reddy, Hindu candidate being fielded for an assembly seat by Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen from Rajendranagar constituency.

Controversies

Multiple members of the party have been accused of inciting violence, fear mongering and hate speech.[75][76][77] In 2007, the floor leader of the party in the Telangana Assembly, Akbaruddin Owaisi, threatened to kill the writer Taslima Nasreen[75] should she ever visit Hyderabad again.[78] Nasreen was later attacked during a book launch for the Telugu translation of her novel Shodh.[79] Akbaruddin Owaisi has also said that 25 crore Muslims would need just 15 minutes without the police to show 100 crore Hindus who is more powerful.[80][81]

In February 2020, Police from India's Kalaburagi, Karnataka region charged party leader Waris Pathan for alleged hate speech. In the speech Pathon allegedly expressed Anti-Hindu sentiment by positing, "To those saying we have only put our women at the forefront of the protest against the CAA, NRC and NPR, only our lionesses have come out till now and you are already sweating. Imagine what will happen if we all men came together. We are 15 crore, which can outweigh their 100 crore". Waris later apologised for the comments via Twitter while the party's president Asaduddin Owaisi advised him not to make provocative remarks in public.[76]
