The younger Owaisi has been winning in the seat for the past four elections, with expectations high that he will continue his streak in the coming election set to be held in April-May this year.
Hyderabad Lok Sabha Elections 2024: Dates
Telangana is scheduled to go to polls on May 13 in the fourth phase of the Lok Sabha elections. Due to the limited number of seats in Telangana, the general elections in the state will be held in a single phase.
Owaisi's fate in the year's election is going to be decided on the polling day of May 13. There are high stakes at play in this year's general elections, with the Bharatiya Janata Party aiming for a record 400-seat haul in the 543-seat Sabha. Both observers and the general public are gearing up for what is likely to be a tense contest as the opposition tries to stem the saffron tide.
In 2019, voting for the Lok Sabha elections was held on April 11, with a similar timeframe expected for the upcoming polls.
Hyderabad Lok Sabha Elections 2024: Result date

Incumbent and four-time winner Asaduddin Owaisi is set to contest from the AIMIM, while the BJP will field Madhavi Latha from the seat. The Congress and the BSP are yet to announce a candidate for the seat. Expectations are high that Owaisi will keep his seat with a heavy margin, as he has done in the past.
Hyderabad Lok Sabha Elections 2019
In two of the last four elections, AIMIM head honcho Owaisi has won by over 50% of the vote, with the people of Hyderabad putting their faith in the party leader for two decades. This year too, Owaisi is set to contest the seat he took over from his father in 2004. The Lok Sabha election in 2004 was also the closest margin of victory for Asaduddin Owaisi, when he secured only 37.39% of the total vote. Ever since, the Muslim leader has only gone from strength to strength, winning by bigger margins each election.
In 2019, Owaisi won 58.95% of the vote, beating out BJP's Bhagavanth Rao by a two lakh margin. Five years before that, in 2014, Owaisi won 52.94% of the vote, with a similar two lakh vote margin.
