The seats include:

This event is anticipated to draw significant attention and mobilize support for the party's candidates. The rally serves as a platform for Owaisi to connect with voters and articulate AIMIM's vision for local governance.
AIMIM's Previous Performance in Gujarat
In the 2021 local body elections, AIMIM demonstrated its growing influence by securing notable victories. The party won seven seats in the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) election, alongside 16 seats in the municipalities of Modasa and Godhra. These achievements underscore AIMIM's gradual penetration into Gujarat's political arena, setting the stage for a more robust contest in the upcoming polls.
