After casting his vote early Thursday, All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) President Asaduddin Owaisi urged people to exercise their constitutional right to vote in the first phase of Lok Sabha elections.
"Exercised my right to vote and briefly addressed the media. I request every single person reading this: exercise your right, use the constitutional tools given to us by Babasaheb," Owaisi tweeted.
Owaisi is a three-time Member of Parliament, representing the Hyderabad constituency in Lok Sabha. The city has been a stronghold of AIMIM since 1984 and Owaisi is seeking re-election.
