The former President of Aligarh Muslim University Students’ Union, Maskoor Ahmad Usmani is contesting from Jale constituency on a Congress’ ticket in Bihar polls. Usmani is a young leader who and was the AMUSU president from 2017-18. During Usmani's time as the president, BJP MP Satish Gautam had sparked controversy overhanging a portrait of Mohammad Ali Jinnah in the university since 1938. Recently, Union Minister Giriraj Singh demanded answer from the Congress if their candidate “supports Jinnah”. The controversy has racked up again in the Bihar polls with the BJP attacking Congress over supporting 'Jinnah sympathisers'. Usmani is making his political debut for the first time in this election with the Congress. A number of Congress leaders have rallied behind Usmani over the controversy. The seat was with the BJP in the last election and in this election too Usmani will contest against the sitting BJP MLA Jivesh Kumar.
