HYDERABAD: Majilis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) wrote to Telangana chief electoral officer Rajat Kumar stating that it has not issued any manifesto for the assembly elections. So far, 16 parties have submitted their manifesto to the CEO.


MIM MLC Syed Amin Jafri, in his letter to the CEO on November 28, said that the party hadn’t issued a manifesto in previous polls too.


In 1962, MIM under the leadership of Sultan Salahuddin Owaisi entered the assembly and the number increased to three MLAs in 1967, and the party split later. In 2009 and 2014, MIM won seven constituencies. The MIM leaders said that their slogan is “our work is our identity”. The party focuses on civic and minority issues. Party leaders say that the manifesto can be implemented only if the party comes to power.


However, the party issued an action plan for Hyderabad in the GHMC elections as it was the single largest party.


Congress has submitted a 116-page manifesto followed by BJP (44 pages) and TDP (34 pages) and TRS (19 pages). TDP is the only party that submitted its manifesto in Urdu. Anarakshit Samaj Party, CPI, CPM, TJS, Telangana Labour party, Telangana Prajala Party, New India Party, Peoples Front, NCP, Jai Swaraj Party, Social Justice party of India and Nava PrajaRajyam Party submitted their manifestos.
