Bihar Assembly Polls 2025: Owaisi's AIMIM Releases First List Of 25 Candidates
Patna, Bihar: All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) on Sunday, October 19, announced a list of 25 candidates for the upcoming Bihar assembly elections. The Asaduddin Owaisi-led party had declared that it would contest 100 seats in the Bihar elections after being pushed away by the INDIA bloc.
The list includes two non-Muslim candidates. In a social media post, the AIMIM said that the candidates’ names were finalised by AIMIM’s Bihar Unit, in consultation with the party’s national leadership. “Inshallah, we will be a voice of justice for Bihar’s weakest and most neglected,” the party wrote on X.
बिहार विधानसभा चुनाव के AIMIM प्रत्याशियों के नाम कुछ इस तरह हैं। इंशाअल्लाह उम्मीद है कि हम बिहार के सबसे मज़लूम लोगों की आवाज़ बनेंगे। यह सूची AIMIM बिहार यूनिट ने तैयार की है और इस सिलसिले में पार्टी की क़ौमी कियादत से भी मशविरा किया गया है।

Sharing a news article published by The Hindu, the party chief, Owaisi, pointed out that there has been no proportional representation for Muslims among Bihar poll candidates. “When it comes to talking about social, political, and economic justice for Muslims, all these slogan-givers run away. The community, which makes up 17% of the population, is being told that their place is to give votes, not to take them,” Owaisi observed.
In Bihar, which accounts for 17.7%of the Muslim population, no parties have so far announced more than four Muslim candidates for the State’s 243 Assembly constituencies. Notably, the Muslim population is over 20% in 87 constituencies, making their votes a decisive factor in any candidate’s electoral fortunes, the news portal reported.

“वोट का राज मतलब छोट का राज”
“जिसकी जितनी संख्या भारी, उसकी उतनी हिस्सेदारी”
“सबका साथ, सबका…”
जब मुसलमानों के सामाजिक सियासी और आर्थिक इंसाफ़ की बात होती है तो ये सब नारा देने वाले भाग जाते हैं। 17% आबादी वाले समुदाय को कहा जा रहा है के उनकी औक़ात वोट देने की है, लेने की नहीं। https://t.co/n5hx4W3mcz— Asaduddin Owaisi (@asadowaisi) October 19, 2025
