AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi has hinted that some sitting MLAs may be replaced in the upcoming assembly election. It is speculated that at least two MLAs will be dropped and one may be shifted to a different constituency. Owaisi stated that no final decision has been made on the candidates and even he is unsure if he will contest the 2024 Lok Sabha poll. The party had retained seven seats in the 2018 election and sources suggest potential contenders for the MIM ticket.
