A day after the Congress-Left-Indian Secular Front (ISF) held a joint rally in the poll-bound West Bengal, the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) chief Asaduddin Owaisi on Monday said that he shall reveal his party's strategy in the state "when the time is right."

He also announced that his party shall contest in Tamil Nadu assembly polls.

Speaking to reporters at a press conference here on Monday, Owaisi said, "'Main akela hi chala tha jb-e-manzil magar, log saath aate gaye aur kaarvan banta gaya'. I'll speak (about party strategy in West Bengal) when the time is right."

"We will contest Assembly elections in Tamil Nadu. Some of our candidates won in Gujarat local body polls. I'll be going to Rajasthan today to review and speak with party members. Our party workers are also working hard in Uttar Pradesh," he further told the reporters here today.

Owaisi's party had bagged three seats in Ahmedabad in the recently concluded Gujarat municipal corporation elections.

This year, Tamil Nadu assembly polls are scheduled to be held in a single phase on April 6. Bye-election in four assembly seats in Rajasthan and one assembly seat in Uttar Pradesh are also due to be held this year.

The Left-Congress-ISF had held its first joint rally at Brigade parade ground in Kolkata on Sunday. Elections for the 294 Assembly seats in West Bengal will begin on March 27 and be held in eight-phases.
