All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) is keen to join hands with the opposition's Maha Vikas Agahdi (MVA) alliance in Maharashtra with an aim to defeat Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the upcoming Assembly polls, said former MP Imtiaz Jaleel.
The party's state unit president said that it would be beneficial for the alliance to take the party along with them else, the party is ready to move on.
"We had said this during the Lok Sabha elections and we are giving an offer to the MVA again to join hands as we want to defeat the BJP," Jaleel said while speaking to ABP Majha after a meeting of the party in Mumbai.
But it is up to them whether to include us in the alliance or not." "If they (MVA parties) take us along, it will be beneficial for them. If not, we are ready to move ahead alone...If they think we have some power and have a vote bank, then they will ask us, otherwise they will not," he added.
When asked if the party does not have any issues with MVA constituent Shiv Sena (UBT), he said: "The BJP has damaged the country, so we want to keep them away from the government by any means."
Jaleel, however, refused to ally with Prakash Ambedkar's Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi (VBA).

"Now after providing financial assistance to women, those in power are openly asking people to vote for them (Mahayuti)...It shows that there is no love for the sisters. It is just a deal," he added.
