Senior Congress leader and Chhattisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel on Wednesday said Congress will win maximum seats in Upper Assam in the upcoming State Assembly election 2021.
Talking to media persons, Baghel said, “We are confident of winning maximum seats in Upper Assam. I have visited many places and I have seen the support for the Congress. Our ‘Mahajot’ will form the next government in Assam by defeating the BJP.”
Criticising former chief minister of Chhattisgarh Ramen Singh, Baghel said, “He was thrown out of power in Chhattisgarh after 15 years’ rule; why he has come here. He did nothing for the state and the people ousted him from power.”
The BJP top brass has sent party vice-president and former Chhattisgarh CM Ramen Singh to campaign for the BJP and counter the present chief minister of Chhattisgarh, Bhupesh Baghel.
Baghel is the election observer of Congress for the Assam Assembly election.
