If one is to go by what Mariani MLA Rupjyoti Kurmi has to say, it will be either Pradyut Bordoloi or Bhupen Kumar Borah, who will be chosen as the next Assam Congress chief.
“Either Pradyut Bordoloi or Bhupen Borah will become the next Assam Congress president,” said MLA Rupjyoti Kurmi.
However, the Mariani MLA said former Assam Minister Rakibul Hussain’s chances of becoming the next State Congress chief cannot be ruled out.
“Rakibul Hussain has been working very hard to keep the party united in these difficult times and his dedication towards the party may get recognized,” Kurmi added.
