Das, is also likely to be BJP’s candidate from Majuli for the by-polls to the constituency, if former Assam chief minister Sarbananda Sonowal is being inducted into the Central cabinet in the proposed re-shuffle.

If Rajib Lochan Das quits the Congress and joins the BJP, it would be yet another jolt to the grand old party in the state.
