Asaduddin Owaisi Backs Hanuman Beniwal as Rajasthan’s Third Political Force

Jaipur, Rajasthan: AIMIM chief and MP Asaduddin Owaisi has voiced support for a possible third political alternative in Rajasthan.

Owaisi said Hanuman Beniwal could emerge as a strong third force in the state. He also indicated that his party would support Beniwal in that effort.

“Rajasthan needs a third alternative. Hanuman Beniwal should emerge as the third force here. Our party will also support him for this,” Owaisi said.

The statement has added fresh interest to Rajasthan’s political landscape. The state has traditionally witnessed a direct contest between the BJP and Congress.

Beniwal, the Rashtriya Loktantrik Party (RLP) chief, has repeatedly spoken about creating a stronger political alternative in Rajasthan. He has also criticised both major parties and argued for a third political force.

Owaisi’s remarks could further fuel discussions around opposition coordination in the state. His support also comes after earlier political interactions involving Beniwal and other regional leaders.

The development may become significant as Rajasthan’s political parties prepare for the next electoral cycle. A broader third-front strategy could challenge the traditional BJP-Congress contest.

For now, Owaisi’s statement signals AIMIM’s willingness to back Beniwal’s efforts. Whether this develops into a formal political alliance remains to be seen.
