The All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (transl.  All India Council for Unity of Muslims; abbr. AIMIM) is an Indian political party based primarily in the old city of Hyderabad,[7] It is also a significant political party in the Indian States of Telangana, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Bihar.[8]

AIMIM has held the Lok Sabha seats for the Hyderabad constituency since 1984. In the 2014 Telangana Legislative Assembly elections, the party won seven seats and received recognition as a "state party" by the Election Commission of India.[9]

For much of its existence, it had little presence beyond old Hyderabad. However, in more recent years, it has begun expanding into other states. It now has a significant presence in Maharashtra, with Imtiyaz Jaleel winning the Aurangabad Lok Sabha constituency in 2019 and with multiple members elected to the Legislative Assembly.[10] It has also made inroads in Bihar, winning five Legislative Assembly seats in 2020.[11][12][13][14]

Origins

[edit]

AIMIM was originally founded as Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) in 1927 by Nawab Mahmood Nawaz Khan Qiledar of Hyderabad State in the presence of Ulma-e-Mashaeqeen as a pro-partition party.[15] The first meeting was held in the house of Nawaz Khan on 12 November 1927. MIM shunned integration with India and advocated the setting up of a "Ashraf dominion" in India.[16][17][18] In 1938, Bahadur Yar Jung was elected president of the MIM. At that time it had only a cultural and religious manifesto. It soon acquired a political complexion. After the death of Bahadur Yar Jang in 1944, Qasim Rizvi was elected as its leader.[19] Indian government, after police action (named operation polo), merged Hyderabad state with India and arrested Razakars including its leader Qasim Rizvi. He was released from jail in 1957 with condition that he will go to Pakistan.

Qaaid-e-Millat Nawab Bahadur Yar Jung led MIM from 1938 to 1944

In 1958, before he left for Pakistan, Razvi nominated Abdul Wahid Owaisi as his successor. Abdul Wahed Owaisi, a lawyer organised the party into the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen.[20][21] Under his leadership, the AIMIM shifted from a hardline policy of independence to a pragmatic direction.[22] After Abdul Wahed Owaisi, his son Sultan Salahuddin Owaisi took control of AIMIM in 1975 and was referred to as Salar E Millat (commander of the community).[23][24] AIMIM President, Asaduddin Owaisi, his son claims that AIMIM is not the descendant of Razakars.[25]

Current leader of the party Asaduddin Owaisi.

In 1993, AIMIM suffered a split, with a faction led by Amanullah Khan creating the Majlis Bachao Tehreek. As a result, AIMIM was reduced to a single Assembly seat in Andhra Pradesh in 1994.[32] They won four seats in 1999, and increased their total to seven in 2009, where they have remained since then. They joined the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance in 2008, but left it in 2012.[33] AIMIM have seven MLAs, two MLCs, one MP, 67 Municipal Corporators and 70 Councillors in Telangana.

Controversies

[edit]

In February 2020, Police from India's Kalaburagi, Karnataka region charged party leader Waris Pathan for his alleged hate speech. In the speech Pathan allegedly expressed Anti-Hindu sentiment by positing, "To those saying we have only put our women at the forefront of the protest against the CAA, NRC and NPR, only our lionesses have come out till now and you are already sweating. Imagine what will happen if we all men came together. We are 15 crore, which can outweigh their 100 crore". Waris later apologised for the comments via Twitter while the party's president Asaduddin Owaisi advised him not to make provocative remarks in public.[13]

In 2007, the floor leader of the party in the Telangana Assembly, Akbaruddin Owaisi, threatened to kill the writer Taslima Nasreen[12] should she ever visit Hyderabad again.[93] Nasreen was later attacked during a book launch for the Telugu translation of her novel Shodh.[94]
