When MIM party choose not to support the no confidence motion of TRS and other opposition parties, speculations were rife in the state that MIM was trying not do cross swords with Congress. Ruling out those speculations, the party supremo Asaduddin came out with statements that apparently made observers astonished.

Mr Asaduddin Owaisi took on Congress vehemently and even mentioned that Congress would be in such a situation that it would be tough for the party to win even 30 seats in 2014 elections. In a public meeting held in Sangareddy district, he made these statements. Stressing the present number of legislators for Congress party, Asaduddin said the party might have 150 MLAs now but it would not win 2014 elections.

As said earlier, when he withdrew from Congress, Asaduddin is going ahead with criticism against Congress party. What steps Congress would take now to counter this criticism?
