The All India United Democratic Front (also known as AIUDF and Sarva Bharatiya Sanyukt Ganatantric Morcha) is a political party active in the Indian state of Assam.[8] It is the 3rd largest political party in Assam Legislative Assembly after BJP and INC.
The party was founded by Maulana Badruddin Ajmal on 3 October 2005 and at that time, its name was Assam United Democratic Front (AUDF). It was relaunched as a national party under its current name at a press meet in New Delhi on 2 February 2009, again with Badruddin Ajmal as the party's leader. The party is headquartered in Guwahati.[9][10]
The AIUDF is a key opposition party in Assam, which has the support of millions of Miya Bengali Muslims from Lower Assam and Barak Valley. It won 18 of 126 seats in the 2011 Legislative Assembly election;[11] in 2016, it won 13 of the 126 seats. In the 2021 Assam Assembly Election, Congress and AIUDF formed a grand alliance along with BPF and communist parties. The alliance fought against the BJP-led NDA. AIUDF increased its tally and won 16 of 126 seats in the 2021 Legislative assembly election of Assam.[12] However, its alliance could not win enough seats to form a government.
