With Bihar’s 2025 Assembly elections looming, political realignments are heating up. In a bold move, Asaduddin Owaisi’s AIMIM has formally written to RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav, seeking entry into the Mahagathbandhan (Grand Alliance) to prevent the fragmentation of secular votes.
 
Key Highlights:
  • Formal Appeal: AIMIM’s Bihar state president Akhtarul Iman penned a letter to Lalu Yadav, urging the inclusion of AIMIM in the 
  • alliance to counter communal forces and consolidate the secular vote bank.
  • Past Attempts: The party had previously expressed interest in joining the alliance during the 2020 Assembly and 2024 Lok Sabha elections, but talks failed to materialize.
  • Strategic Timing: With elections expected in October–November 2025, AIMIM’s renewed push is seen as a tactical move to regain relevance after four of its five MLAs defected to RJD in 2022.
  • RJD’s Silence: While AIMIM claims to have reached out to senior RJD and Congress leaders, Tejashwi Yadav has reportedly denied receiving any direct proposal—prompting this formal letter.
  • Owaisi’s Swipe: In a pointed remark, Owaisi said, “If they don’t agree, we’ll contest alone. But don’t cry after the election saying, ‘Mummy, they stole your chocolate.’”
  • Seemanchal Stakes: AIMIM’s influence in the Muslimmajority Seemanchal region remains significant, making it a potential votesplitter if left out of the alliance.
As Bihar’s political chessboard resets, all eyes are now on Lalu’s next move—and whether the Grand Alliance will grow grander or fracture further.
