Sarma in Diphu claimed that the congress candidates in Assam had been in BJP's choice and said that when Congress leaders talk against BJP, their cell phone records need to be checked to find if they are in touch with BJP for a switch over.
Congress is contesting 13 seats and left one seat for its ally Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP). Assam has 14 Lok Sabha seats, BJP has declared candidates for 11 seats, AGP is contesting from two seats and United People’s Party, Liberal (UPPL) is contesting from one seat.
Earlier Sarma said, "By 2026, there will be no more Hindus in the Assam Congress and almost all the Muslims will leave the Congress by 2032. We will open a branch at Rajiv Bhawan as Mahanagar BJP."
Rajiv Bhawan is the Headquarter of Congress in Guwahati. The Assam Chief Minister had said, "I am trying to work to reform their society. Many Muslim youths are supporting me, as you can see on Facebook. No one opposes it."
"The BJP will take the lead in 105 out of 126 assembly constituencies in the state. I am very confident that people will vote for us for the development work done by the government," the CM added.
