Assam State BJP president Bhabesh Kalita on Friday handed over the party tickets to the party-declared candidates to contest the Lok Sabha election. Diphu (ST) is a parliamentary constituency in the state of Assam, India. It is one of the 14 Lok Sabha constituencies in Assam, which are reserved for scheduled tribes.

In another setback for the Aam Adami Party (AAP), several prominent leaders from its Assam unit joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday. The Election Commission of India on Wednesday issued the notification for the first phase of the Lok Sabha elections 2024 to be conducted on April 19.

The 2024 Lok Sabha polls in Assam will be held in three phases. The first phase of the polling will be held on April 19, followed by April 26 and May 7. The BJP is contesting in 11 seats in Assam, while the AGP is contesting in two seats (Barpeta and Dhubri) and the United People's Party Liberal (UPPL) is contesting in one seat (Kokrajhar).
