Putting an end to all speculations, Singh also said that there will be no change of leadership in the Assam Congress and the AICC has full faith and confidence in Bhupen Kumar Borah.
“AICC has full confidence in Bhupen Borah and Assam Congress will continue to function under his leadership,” Singh said.
He also cautioned the public against the rumour of a possible change in Assam Congress president.
AIUDF was an alliance partner of the Congress-led eight-party Mahajot formed before the 2021 Assam assembly elections.
However, on September 2, 2021, the Congress broke its alliance with the AIUDF, accusing its leaders of becoming soft towards the BJP.
