Asaduddin Owaisi's AIMIM and Chandrashekhar Azad's Azad Samaj Party (Kanshi Ram) will contest the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections together, an AIMIM spokesperson said.
The two MPs were due to announce the alliance at a joint press conference in Lucknow on Thursday; seat-sharing has not been made public.
The front is aimed at Dalit and Muslim voters, a base that also matters to the Samajwadi Party and the Congress.
