Amanullah Khan, who was a trusted lieutenant of the then AIMIM President Sultan Salahuddin Owaisi, formed the MBT in 1993 after his suspension for protesting against the weak stance that the AIMIM took during the demolition of the Babri Masjid. Later, he launched a campaign over the Babri Masjid demolition. Other crucial issues that he raised were lack of internal democracy in the party, nepotism, political patronage and corruption in the AIMIM's civic dealings.
