Sarma, a key figure in BJP's election strategy, indicated that the Sudesh Mahto-led AJSU Party will contest 9-11 seats. Discussions with JD(U) are also complete, while talks with LJP are expected following Chirag Paswan's return from abroad.

He criticized the JMM-led government for its delayed financial aid to women, emphasizing the BJP's Gogo Didi scheme. Promising jobs for the youth, Sarma also assured the inclusion of all communities in religious festivities if BJP triumphs. The BJP awaits the election commission's announcement to finalize details.
