Chandrashekhar Azad Named CM Face of Samajik Parivartan Morcha as Owaisi Vows to Stop BJP’s Third Term in Uttar Pradesh
Owaisi said the alliance will fight the BJP across all 403 seats and focus on unemployment, farmers' distress and marginalised groups.
- On Thursday, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi and Azad Samaj Party president Chandrashekhar Azad launched the 'Samajik Parivartan Morcha,' with Owaisi naming Azad as the alliance's chief ministerial candidate for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections.
- After unsuccessfully seeking entry into the Samajwadi Party-led opposition bloc for months, Owaisi and Azad formed the group to challenge the BJP by focusing on unemployment, farmers' distress, and marginalised communities.
- The partners plan to contest all 403 Uttar Pradesh Assembly seats together, targeting Muslims and Dalits who comprise approximately 19 per cent and around 21 per cent of the state's population, respectively, combining for nearly 40 per cent.
- State Cabinet Minister Om Prakash Rajbhar predicted the move would create "an earthquake for Akhilesh Yadav," while Owaisi said Yadav "will remain a former Chief Minister."
- The front aims to disrupt traditional vote banks ahead of the 2027 elections, with leaders remaining committed despite skepticism from rival parties and the BJP's dismissal of the alliance as lacking agenda.
