The Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) has held former Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao responsible for Babri Masjid demolition and wants all projects named after him to be changed. This is the poll card that the party wants to use for the upcoming civic elections.
The first resolution of the party says it would rename the P.V. Narasimha Rao Expressway flyover after Mahatma Gandhi or Moulana Abdul Kalam Azad if elected to power.
“We have made our stand clear on this issue. The 11.6 km expressway is an important infrastructure project and longest flyover in the country and it cannot be named after a controversial leader,” the MIM president and MP, Mr Asaduddin Owaisi, said.
Since the MIM is also fielding candidates from both Hindu and Muslim communities, civic issues will be highlighted in other municipal wards having voters from both the communities. On paper, the MIM has prepared their agenda with focus on civic issues like roads, incomplete projects, rationalisation of property tax, water supply, improvement in sanitation particularly clearance of garbage, improving sewer storm water drainage network among others.
The MIM has finalised its first list of candidates for 34 wards of which six are non-Muslims contesting from Puranapul, Karwan, Langar Houz, Ghansi Bazar, Borabanda and Rahmathnagar.
