However, Jaber Ahmed refused to accept the offer. He made it clear that even if Rs 50 lakh was offered, he can't do anything.The Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) President was addressing a meeting in Nirmal to campaign for his ally, the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), for next month's Assembly elections.Owaisi came down heavily on Congress and BJP, describing them as two sides of the same coin.The elections to 119-member Assembly are scheduled to be held on December 7.MIM is contesting eight seats -- all in Hyderabad.
