Asaduddin Owaisi’s All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) delivered an unexpected jolt to the political landscape in Bihar by securing two Assembly seats in the latest election results. The party also maintained leads in three additional constituencies, marking one of its strongest performances in the state to date.

In Kochadhaman (Constituency 55), AIMIM candidate Md. Sarwar Alam clinched victory with 81,860 votes, defeating his nearest rival by a margin of 23,021 after all 22 rounds of counting. AIMIM candidate Mohammad Murshid Alam won in Jokihat (50) with 83,737 votes and a margin of 28,803.

The Election Commission’s latest figures show in Amour (56), Akhtarul Iman is leading with 100,836 votes and a margin of 38,928. Meanwhile, Ghulam Sarwar has taken the lead in Baisi (57) with 72,268 votes, holding a margin of 16,548 as of the 19th round out of 25.

The Hyderabad MP Owaisi stated that his party accepted the mandate delivered by the people of Bihar, extending congratulations to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar along with best wishes. At a press conference, Asaduddin Owaisi emphasized that his party would work with the government to promote development in Seemanchal, highlighting priorities such as reducing child mortality and establishing schools, hospitals, bridges, and industries to benefit women and children.

He recalled that even after losing in the first election and facing a split in 2022 when four MLAs were lured away by rivals, the AIMIM had not abandoned Seemanchal and would continue its struggle there. Expressing gratitude to the voters for electing five MLAs from his party, Owaisi said the outcome carried a message for minorities across India. He urged the Muslim community not to remain passive voters for others but to assert themselves as citizens entitled to their rights, warning that otherwise they risk being forgotten once elections are over and left without support in times of crisis.
