Assam Opposition Parties Vow Unity for 2026 Polls Amid Speculation

After Saturday’s opposition meeting, Raijor Dal chief Akhil Gogoi affirmed that anti-BJP forces will contest the 2026 Assam Assembly polls together. However, APCC president Bhupen Kumar Borah’s social media post featuring “Ekla Cholo Re” sparked speculation about Congress’s independent course. Gogoi dismissed any discord, stating the meeting was cordial and all parties agreed on unity. He emphasized the need for sacrifices but ruled out major compromises. While he refrained from commenting on Borah’s post, he reiterated the opposition’s collective resolve to defeat the BJP in 2026.
