AIMIM Expels Telangana MLC Mirza Rahmath Baig, Seeks Resignation

The All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) has expelled its Telangana Member of the Legislative Council (MLC), Mirza Rahmath Baig, from the party and directed him to immediately resign from his legislative position. The decision was announced late on August 28, 2026, by AIMIM Joint Secretary S.A. Hussain Anwar in a statement, though the party has not publicly disclosed the specific reasons for the sudden action. The expulsion comes amid reports of a controversy involving alleged inappropriate behaviour by Baig. Sources indicate that videos depicting the incident have circulated online, with some reports alleging the involvement of a minor girl in the Attapur area of Hyderabad.
