Hyderabad: Manifestos are an integral part of elections in India. In every election, be it for Parliament, a state Assembly or a municipal corporation, contesting political parties release their manifestos to tell voters what they will do if voted to power.

However, there is one political party which never releases manifesto in any election it contests, in Hyderabad, Telangana or any other state.

Unlike other parties, the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) doesn’t believe in releasing manifestos.

It never released the document in any of the elections it contested since its revival in 1958.

“We don’t release a manifesto. We seek vote on the basis of our performance,” says party chief Asaduddin Owaisi, who is leading the ongoing campaign for the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) elections.

A key force in Hyderabad politics, MIM has been historically playing the role of kingmaker or sharing power with others in the municipal body
