Imaginary arrows shot by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the run-up to the Lok Sabha elections fell short of the intended target by several miles in Hyderabad constituency as sitting parliamentarian Asaduddin Owaisi won with a staggering margin of 3,38,087 votes.
The margin is the widest since 1984, when Mr. Owaisi’s father Salahuddin Owaisi contested from the Hyderabad Lok Sabha constituency which then included Tandur, Vicarabad and Chevella Assembly segments.
