==Background and career==
Born in Peshawar, then in British India, he was the only child to Aslam Khan and Zubaida Aslam. Asghar gained a BA from Peshawar University〔 before moving to Wales to complete a course in accountancy in Newport. Asghar initially joined the Conservative party, remaining a member for some two decades, later joining the Labour party in the 1990s. He joined Plaid Cymru some time after becoming Wales’ first Muslim councillor, representing Victoria ward on Newport City Council.〔(Gwent politician survives bomb attack ), ''South Wales Argus'', 19 October 2007.〕 He has stood for Plaid Cymru in general elections. His daughter Natasha Asghar — central to several scandals involving her father's career — also stood as a Plaid Cymru candidate in the 2007 Elections,〔(Young Candidates ), Plaid Cymru〕 and also joined the Conservative party at the same time he did so.〔http://www.conservatives.com/People/Welsh_Assembly_Members/Asghar_Mohammad.aspx〕
On 8 December 2009, Asghar became the first AM to cross the floor, defecting from Plaid Cymru to the Conservative Party. He claimed that he felt "out of tune" with Plaid policies, described himself as a royalist and unionist,〔(Plaid AM defects to Conservatives ), BBC News online, 8 December 2009.〕 and stated that he felt like "a little parrot in a jungle".〔"(Plaid Cymru AM joins the Conservatives )", Walesonline.co.uk, 8 December 2009.〕 Plaid Cymru called on Asghar to resign his seat following his defection.〔
Asghar married his wife, Firdaus, in 1983; they have one daughter.
