Political Turbulence in Assam: Congress Faces Internal Rift

Assam's political landscape sees turbulence as former Congress chief Bhupen Bora's rumored resignation sparks concerns. Opposition Leader Debabrata Saikia plans to verify these claims. Meanwhile, BJP leaders criticize Congress for internal discord and weak leadership, claiming the party is in decline.

Assam's political climate is heating up with speculation surrounding former state Congress chief Bhupen Bora's supposed resignation. Debabrata Saikia, Leader of the Opposition, highlighted the implications and impact of such departures as he awaits confirmation from Bora personally.

The anticipation of pre-election resignations from Congress party members, driven by internal politics and ticket allocation concerns, adds to the existing turmoil. Saikia explained this is a common scenario around election time, noting that party dissatisfactions often lead leaders to seek opportunities elsewhere.

Amid this unrest, BJP leaders have seized the opportunity to criticize Congress, dubbing the party's issues as a sign of indiscipline and lack of cohesive leadership. They allege that internal disagreements and accusations of foreign connections further exacerbate Congress's challenges, leading to a potential decline.
