PTI, HYDERABAD: The BJP has fielded Syed Shahezadi, a young Muslim woman, as its candidate from Chandrayangutta constituency in Hyderabad, to take on AIMIM leader Akbaruddin Owaisi in the December 7 state assembly election.
A novice in electoral politics, Shahezadi, who was a leader of ABVP, student wing of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, hails from Adilabad in Telangana.
Shahezadi, who completed post-graduation in political science from Osmania University in Hyderabad, alleged there has been no improvement in the condition of common people in Chandrayangutta and other parts of old city of Hyderabad though All India Majlis-e-Ittehad-ul Muslimeen (AIMIM) has been elected for the past two decades.
She said she can work for people’s welfare by implementing central government schemes.
“I am asking what did he (Owaisi) do for you (people)? What change has come in your lives? What about your children’s education and how many of them are employed? How many have become engineers and doctors,” she told PTI.
A communal atmosphere prevailed in the old city of Hyderabad, AIMIM’s stronghold, and there has been no change in the lives of common people, including ordinary Muslims, with AIMIM at the helm, she alleged.
