Manifestos, one of the important parts of elections in India but AIMIM is one party which never releases manifesto in any election it contests. It is said that the party doesn't believe in releasing manifestos and it has never released in any of the elections since 1958.

In an interview, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi reacted to Home Minister Amit Shah's comments. He said that he feels like Laila surrounded by Majnus. He criticised BJP leaders for their statements against the Old City and made a satirical comment that all other political parties are his majnus and he is 'Laila'. He said that, "Dekhiye mera haal aisa hai na ke main Laila hun aur mere hazaron Majnu hain." On Sunday, Amit Shah campaigned in Hyderabad ahead of GHMC polls 2020.

In one of the rallies, AIMIM Legislator representing Charminar Mumtaz Khan claimed that AIMIM party can remove the TRS from power within a short span of time. He also lashed out at KTR and accused him of being a parrot. Meanwhile, AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi also criticised TRS government. Owaisi told people that AIMIM has no alliance with the TRS in the civic polls. AIMIM is contesting from Erragadda division and said that they are fighting against the TRS.

Asaduddin Owaisi led party has sketched out different strategies to win the polls. The party also criticised BJP for hate speech.
