AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi and Azad Samaj Party leader Chandrashekhar Azad on Thursday announced an alliance for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. Named the Samajik Parivartan Morcha (SPM), the alliance has declared Azad as its chief ministerial candidate. The two parties said they would contest all 403 Assembly seats, aiming to challenge the BJP and strengthen Muslim-Dalit political representation. Owaisi said the alliance was formed to prevent the BJP from returning to power for a third term. The leaders also invited the Samajwadi Party and Congress to join their campaign against the ruling party. (PC: HT)
