Telangana: It is not easy to defeat Owaisi on Hyderabad seat, will anyone from BJP or Congress candidate give competition?
This time the contest on Hyderabad Lok Sabha seat is considered to be very interesting. After BJP, Congress is also looking for a woman candidate for the first time to compete with the sitting MP Asaduddin Owaisi. Owaisi has been MP from this seat since 2004. But BJP and Congress leaders believe that this time there is an atmosphere against Owaisi in Hyderabad seat and victory can be registered here.
According to information received in media reports from Congress sources, the party is going to field Shahnaz Tabassum, Supreme Court lawyer in Hyderabad and wife of Telangana Waqf Board CEO Syed Khaja Moinuddin. Whereas BJP has declared Madhavi Lata as its candidate. KCR’s party has also fielded its candidate against Asaduddin. BRS has made Gaddam Srinivas Yadav its candidate this time.
It is not easy to defeat Owaisi
However, it is not easy to defeat Owaisi from Hyderabad seat. This can be gauged from the fact that in 2019, he had defeated BJP candidate Bhagwant Rao Pawar by a huge margin of 2.82 lakh votes. This time Congress is hoping to win this seat by fielding a Muslim candidate. Telangana Congress leaders say that Shahnaz will be a good candidate against Tabassum Asaduddin Owaisi and she can compete with him.
Whereas BJP hopes that Madhavi Lata can give good results to the party this time. He is local and BJP considers it a big thing. It is believed that Madhavi Lata has a good following among Muslims also.
