At a time when the country has been fighting against the second wave of the novel coronavirus, four states and one Union Territory is expecting new governments to require charge. because the counting of votes commences on May 2, the BJP is looking to make history in Assam: become the sole non-Congress government to win consecutive terms.
However, for the saffron party, this election was very different from the opposite states as Assam was the sole place where it had been fighting to retain power.
Leading the alliance with the Asom Gana Parishad (AGP), the United People’s Party Liberal (UPPL) and therefore the Gana Suraksha Party (GSP), which mainly represent the Bodo and Sarania communities respectively, the BJP faced stiff competition from two corners this year: the primary being the Congress-led Grand Alliance of which the minority-backed All India United Democratic Front, the Bodoland People’s Front, which had control over the Bodoland Territorial Council for nearly 20 years , and marginal players like Anchalik Gana Morcha, Communist Party of India (Marxist), CPI and CPI (Marxist-Leninist); the opposite was from two newly formed regional parties — the Assam Jatiya Parishad (AJP) and therefore the Raijor Dal which emerged out of the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act protests that swept Assam in 2019.
