Guwahati, 13th November: Amidst political uncertainty, Assam BJP Minister Pijush Hazarika raises concerns about the future of the INDIA Alliance, suggesting its potential dissolution before the upcoming general elections. Hazarika, echoing sentiments expressed by Kamalakhya Dey Purkayastha, highlights the alliance’s perceived neglect of other political parties, hinting at a possible abandonment of key members.
Hazarika emphasizes the alliance’s reluctance to allocate seats to parties like the Trinamool Congress (TMC), raising questions about the trustworthiness of Congress, citing their history of abandoning alliance partners. These remarks follow Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma’s confident predictions of the BJP-led alliance securing a significant number of Lok Sabha seats in the upcoming polls.
Sarma’s earlier statements indicated a potential alliance between Congress and AIUDF, characterizing them as “brothers” who might unite in the face of an unfavorable election outcome. The evolving political landscape in Assam adds uncertainty to the future trajectory of alliances as the state gears up for the upcoming general elections.
