Hyderabad: The Hyderabad Lok Sabha constituency, one of the 543 constituencies gearing up for the General Elections, encompasses seven assembly segment areas.
Currently, six of these are represented by All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) MLAs, with one held by a BJP MLA.
Presently, the seven assembly segment areas under Hyderabad Lok Sabha constituency include:

From 1984 to 2004, Sultan Salahuddin Owaisi represented the constituency. Since 2004, the constituency is represented by AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi.
The upcoming Lok Sabha elections in Hyderabad are likely to be a triangular contest, featuring the incumbent MP Asaduddin Owaisi, BJP MP candidate Madhavi Latha, and an undeclared Congress candidate.
As the BRS has not unveiled all candidates for the upcoming elections, it remains unclear whether they will field a candidate in the Hyderabad Lok Sabha constituency as well.
