VBA is a coalition of Prakash Ambedkar’s Bharipa Bahujan Mahasangh (BBM) and Asaduddin Owaisi’s All India Majlis-E-Ittehadul Muslimeen Party (AIMIM). “Earlier, I was inclined towards fighting from the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) but the party was not contesting. When Prakash Ambedkar offered me a ticket, I took it,” he said.
