Asaduddin Owaisi has finally decided to venture into southern politics too and his first stop is likely to be Tamil Nadu where assembly elections are due next year. What is interesting is, Owaisi may not enter the election battleground alone. He is likely to form a coalition with Makkal Needhi Maiyam of Kamal Haasan to contest the 2021 polls together. Kamal Haasan is also making his electoral debut from the assembly elections, but so is Rajinikant who is widely believed to be leaning towards the BJP in the state. According to reports, both the leaders Kamal Haasan and Owaisi have held talks about the formation of alliance and contesting the election together. They also discussed seat-sharing formula. As per the reports, Owaisi’s AIMIM has demanded no less than 25 seats for itself. It is not yet clear whether Kamal Haasan’s party is planning to contest all the seats or just enough of them.
