AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi called BJP a "formidable political opponent" and said the party works "24-hours a day". AIMIM is planning to contest around 100 seats in the 2025 Bihar Assembly elections, five times the number it had fought in last elections. "Both the NDA and the 'Mahagathbandhan' will be forced to realise our presence," AIMIM's Bihar president had said.
