On 26 March 2019, MIM decided to contest Aurangabad Lok Sabha seat in Maharashtra in alliance with the [[Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi]] led by [[Prakash Yashwant Ambedkar|Prakash Ambedkar]].

==Political career==
Jaleel won the Aurangabad Lok Sabha seat defeating the four-time sitting MP from the [[Shiv Sena]], [[Chandrakant Khaire]], with a slim margin of 4,492 vote. Commenting on the results, Chitra Lele, professor of political science at [[SNDT Women's University|SNDT]] University said, “By not raking up national issues and shunning criticism of Narendra Modi, Jaleel avoided polarisation of votes on religious lines. On the other hand, a split in the votes going to Khaire, and AIMIM’s alliance with VBA ensured that he gets votes from [[dalit]]s and other deprived communities”.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Mulay |first1=Paritosh |title=Why a Former Journalist's Electoral Victory in Aurangabad Is So Significant |url=https://thewire.in/politics/aurangabad-maharashtra-imtiaz-jaleel-shiv-sena |access-date=21 May 2022 |work=The Wire |date=29 May 2019}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|last=Joshi|first=Yogesh|date=25 May 2019|title=Lok Sabha Elections 2019: Imtiaz Jaleel is AIMIM's lone victor from Maharashtra|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/lok-sabha-elections/lok-sabha-elections-2019-imtiaz-jaleel-is-aimim-s-lone-victor-from-maharashtra/story-66ZcvHwOXCO5w4V3JmXpqL.html|access-date=28 January 2022|work=Hindustan Times}}</ref>

The differences between the Sena and BJP candidates benefited Jaleel and he became MLA in 2014.

On 26 March 2019, MIM decided to contest [[Aurangabad (Maharashtra Lok Sabha constituency)|Aurangabad Lok Sabha]] seat in Maharashtra in alliance with the [[Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi]] led by [[Prakash Yashwant Ambedkar|Prakash Ambedkar]]. MIM President [[Asaduddin Owaisi]] has picked Imtiyaz Jaleel, as the party candidate.
==Public activity==
=== Protested outside the Aurangabad Airport ===
On 31 July 2017, [[Taslima Nasrin]], a feminist known for her writing on criticism of religion, landed on [[Aurangabad Airport]] to visit [[Ajantha, Maharashtra|Ajanta]] and [[Ellora Caves]]. Led by Imtiaz Jaleel, a group of people protested outside the Aurangabad Airport. After the backlash from protesters, Aurangabad police stopped Nasrin from stepping outside the airport and advised her to go back.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Daniyal |first1=Shoaib |title=The Daily Fix: Taslima Nasreen is a victim of India (yet again) failing to honour freedom of speech |url=https://scroll.in/article/845554/the-daily-fix-taslima-nasreen-is-a-victim-of-india-yet-again-failing-to-honour-freedom-of-speech |access-date=21 May 2022 |work=Scroll.in |date=31 July 2017}}</ref>


The election commission of India (EC) declared the schedule for the [[2019 Indian general election|Lok Sabha elections 2019]]. MIM decided to support the Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi formed by Prakash Ambedkar. MLA Jaleel decided to contest the election. The MIM president Owaisi was reluctant with his decision but the MIM corporators and leaders succeeded in convincing him. Jaleel made a meticulous planning in just 28 days.
=== Tiranga Rally Muslim Reservation ===
On 11 December 2021, Jaleel led the [[Tiranga]] rally organised by the [[All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen|Majlis party]] from [[Aurangabad]] to [[Mumbai]] demanding 5% reservation to the [[Islam in Maharashtra|Muslim community in Maharashtra]]. Jaleel said that the AIMIM party would not contest the upcoming local body elections in Maharashtra if the [[Maha Vikas Aghadi|MVA Government]] did not give 5% reservation to the Muslim community.<ref>{{cite news |title=Give 5% Muslim reservation, AIMIM won't contest polls: Imtiaz Jaleel |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/mumbai-give-5-muslim-reservation-aimim-wont-contest-polls/articleshow/88265890.cms |access-date=21 May 2022 |work=The Times of India |date=14 December 2021 |language=en}}</ref>


In a closely fought battle, the AIMIM candidate, Syed Imtiyaz Jaleel, won the Aurangabad Lok Sabha (LS) constituency seat by defeating four-time MP [[Chandrakant Khaire]] by 4,492 votes. In the final round Jaleel secured 3,89,042 votes while his nearest rival and NDA candidate Khaire 3,84,550 votes. Congress candidate Subhash Zambad got 91,789 votes and Independent Harshvardhan Jadhav polled 2,83,798 votes.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.asianage.com/metros/mumbai/240519/aimims-jaleel-wins-aurangabad-seat-beats-khaire.html | title= AIMIM's Jaleel wins Aurangabad seat, beats Khaire | work=www.asianage.com | access-date= 24 May 2019| date= 24 May 2019 }}</ref>
===Adarsh Co-operative Bank Scams===
Jaleel took a stance against financial scams plaguing cooperative banks and societies. In a letter addressed to [[Prime Minister of India|Prime Minister]] [[Narendra Modi]] and [[Minister of Home Affairs (India)|Union Home Minister]] [[Amit Shah]], Jaleel called for a thorough investigation by central agencies like the [[Central Bureau of Investigation|CBI]] or [[Enforcement Directorate|ED]] into these irregularities.

Imtiyaz Jaleel Syed (born 10 August 1968), also known as Syed Imtiyaz Jaleel, is an Indian politician and member of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen.[4][5] In the 2019 General Elections, Jaleel was elected as Member of Parliament, Lok Sabha from Aurangabad Lok Sabha Constituency. He was elected as member of Maharashtra Legislative Assembly from Aurangabad Central constituency in 2014. He is also the state president of All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen in Maharashtra as well as a member of the Standing Committee of the Urban Development (UD).[6]

Early life[edit | edit source]

Jaleel was born and raised in Aurangabad to Syed Abdul Jaleel and Zakiya Jaleel.[3] His father was a civil surgeon and his brother a manager at Jet Airways.[7] Jaleel married Roomi Fatema on 8 July 1993, with whom he has two sons.[3] He completed both his Master of Business Administration (1996) and Master of Mass Communication and Journalism (2000) from Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University.[1]

Political career[edit | edit source]

Initially Jaleel worked as a journalist for Lokmat and NDTV.[8] He entered politics in 2014 when he contested from the Aurangabad Central Assembly constituency for All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM). He started his campaign 22 days before the polling and defeated the sitting Shiv Sena legislator Pradeep Jaiswal by a margin of around 20,000 votes.[9][10]

On 23 April 2015, under the leadership of Imtiaz Jaleel, MIM won 25 seats in the Aurangabad Municipal Corporation elections.[11] During DPDC meeting which was held on 29 January 2015, Imtiyaz Jaleel raised the issue of costly MRI charges at the government-run hospital in Aurangabad. Then District Guardian Minister Ramdas Kadam directed GMCH authorities to reduce the charges of MRI scan from Rs 1,800 to Rs 700.[12]

On 14 October 2017, Jaleel had filed a public interest litigation (PIL) before the Aurangabad bench of Bombay high court, seeking direction to the state government to allot seven acres of land to build a 200-bed hospital for women and children in Aurangabad. The court had directed the state and district administration to file a reply within six months.[13][14]

On 26 March 2019, MIM decided to contest Aurangabad Lok Sabha seat in Maharashtra in alliance with the Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi led by Prakash Ambedkar. MIM President Asaduddin Owaisi had picked Imtiyaz Jaleel as the party candidate.[15]

Jaleel won the Aurangabad Lok Sabha seat defeating the four-time sitting MP from the Shiv Sena, Chandrakant Khaire, with a slim margin of 4,492 vote. Commenting on the results, Chitra Lele, professor of political science at SNDT University said, “By not raking up national issues and shunning criticism of Narendra Modi, Jaleel avoided polarisation of votes on religious lines. On the other hand, a split in the votes going to Khaire, and AIMIM’s alliance with VBA ensured that he gets votes from dalits and other deprived communities”.[16][17]

Since 2021, Jaleel has sat on the Maharashtra Waqf Board.[18] In the 2024 Lok Sabha election, Jaleel lost to Sandipanrao Bhumre of Shiv Sena by 134,650 votes.[19]

On 18 October 2024, the All India Majlis e Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) Maharashtra announced that Jaleel would contest the 2024 Lok Sabha by election from the Nanded Parliamentary Constituency in Maharashtra.[20] However, a different AIMIM candidate actually ran but the election was won by the Indian National Congress's candidate, Ravindra Vasantrao Chavan.
