The MIM party has withdrawn its support from the UPA Government. This news was confirmed by its supremo, MP Asaddudin Owaisi. He has said that he would write a letter to the Governor withdrawing the support from UPA and state government. Mr Owaisi has said that this decision was made only against the decision being taken by chief minister Kiran Kumar Reddy. He has said that his party would throw light on the policies of the government at the centre and state, and oppose the same.

MIM leaders have also said that they would tour the entire state and stressed the police forces could not stop them from touring. The observers said that this decision might be a problem to the ruling government since many Congress party leaders are apparently to jump out of Congress.
