November 11, 2020 10:22 ISTThe AIMIM of Asaduddin Owaisi has played a spoilsport for the RJD-Congress alliance in the Seemanchal region, thus making the road to power a distant dream for Lalu's son Tejashwi Yadav. The Seemanchal region comprises four districts Purnia, Katihar, Kishanganj, and Araria. It accounts for 24 assembly seats and holds the key to power. Seemanchal is considered one of the most backward regions in the state. It has a sizeable Muslim population and is considered an RJD-Congress stronghold. But this election, the AIMIM ended up dividing the Muslims votes and hurting the prospects of RJD and benefiting the BJP.
