AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi has announced that his party will contest the Jharkhand elections, scheduled for later this year.
Addressing his maiden rally here, the Hyderabad MP said the All-India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) "will unite Muslims, Christians, tribals and other secular-minded people", while also expanding its political base in this part of the country.
He, however, did not mention the number of seats the AIMIM would contest in the upcoming polls.
Exuding confidence that the next Assembly will have members from his party, Owaisi said on Tuesday, "The AIMIM would not allow Sheikh Bhikari and Jaipal Singh Munda's struggle go waste."
