He added: “It is a record in itself that BJP achieved a huge majority in assembly elections.”
Further taking a dig at the Congress party, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma said that people no more have faith in the Congress.
“People have rejected the Congress party as an alternative to the BJP. By the end of 2026, Congress party will only be limited to districts,” the Assam CM further said.
Notably, Congress has dismal performance in the recently concluded Assembly elections in five states, losing Punjab in the process.
