"We will not contest in upcoming Karnataka elections, AIMIM will support JDS and will campaign for them. We will ensure that the JDS gets the maximum number of seats and the party led by Devi Gowda should be ruling Karnataka," Owaisi said.
He further said that both national parties- the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), have failed to live up to the expectations of the people of Karnataka and it's time for bringing some change.
