Guwahati: With Lok Sabha elections approaching, the Assam BJP has set its sights on a victory, aiming to win at least 12 out of the state’s 14 seats.
BJP president Bhabesh Kalita expressed confidence in the party’s alliance with AGP and UPPL, stating they would finalize seat-sharing arrangements in February.
Dismissing the potential impact of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s upcoming ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ in Assam, Kalita asserted that the grand old party has lost favor with the electorate and will not regain power in the state for the next 25 years.
