The All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) on Monday announced the candidature of MP Imtiaz Jaleel from central Maharashtra's Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (earlier Aurangabad) for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections 2024. Jaleel had won the seat in 2019 elections, the PTI reported.

According to the PTI, Imtiaz Jaleel, who is also the Maharashtra unit president of the Hyderabad-based party, was keen to contest from one of the Lok Sabha constituencies in Mumbai, but AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi renominated the journalist-turned-politician from his current seat which will go to polls on May 13 in phase four.
