Asaduddin Owaisi has taken a stand against Akhilesh Yadav before the Uttar Pradesh elections. He challenged Yadav's remarks and accused him of being influenced by the BJP. Owaisi criticised Yadav's PDA formula and questioned his party's ties with the BJP, including the nomination of a BJP supporter's son to the Rajya Sabha. He also targeted Yadav for his visit to the Ram temple in Ayodhya. Analysts note Owaisi's strategy to consolidate the Muslim-Dalit vote base alongside Chandrashekhar Azad to contest the traditional Muslim-Yadav support for the Samajwadi Party and the ruling BJP in Uttar Pradesh.
