Mumbai: AIMIM leader Waris Pathan on Monday broke down at a press interaction saying that he was being stopped for fighting for the people. The Bhiwandi West candidate for Asaduddin Owaisi's AIMIM said the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly Election could be his last.

"This could be my last election. I don't know whether I'll be here or not after five years. My fault is that I am fighting for everyone. I raise my voice for all. That's why they are stopping me? At the last moment, they cancelled my rally. They are troubling me, and I'm facing issues with the administration. All the politicians are against me, trying to stop me. But Allah will grant me victory, and the people of Bhiwandi will make me win," Waris Pathan said.
