# Owaisi backs Azad for UP CM, vows to remove Yogi then Modi 2026-11-15T03:36:20+00:00 | Politics | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets Outlets counted: news9live.com, siasat.com AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Saturday, 14 November 2026, said his alliance would first remove Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath from power and then challenge Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Addressing a rally in Meerut ahead of the 2027 Assembly polls, he urged voters to support the AIMIM-Azad Samaj Party alliance, Samajik Parivartan Morcha, and make Chandrashekhar Azad chief minister. Owaisi described the alliance as a 'union of hearts' capable of defeating the BJP. He criticised the Samajwadi Party and Congress over past communal violence, while inviting both parties to join the front. Azad missed the rally because of prior commitments, Owaisi said. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both news9live.com and siasat.com report Owaisi's Meerut rally with nearly identical wire copy, yielding uniform neutral-report coverage.
