Both Sarbananda Sonowal and Himanta Sarma were on Friday called to New Delhi by the BJP central leadership, apparently to discuss the leadership issue of the next government.
Assam CM Sarbananda Sonowal said BJP is coming back to power with its partners AGP and UPPL and exuded confidence of the coalition bagging 100 out of 119 seats.
Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal, Health Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and AGP chief and minister Atul Bora are leading from Majuli, Jalukbari and Bokakhat.
The CM also said the 3-phase polling was peaceful and it reflected that his government was successful in restoring peace in Assam after decades of insurgency and violence.
As part of the seat-sharing deal with the BJP, the AGP has given away Mahanta’s Barhampur constituency. He is now reviving his old outfit, AGP (Progressive).
Assam BJP president Ranjeet Kumar Dass says Himanta Biswa Sarma's name has been included in a list of potential candidates that was sent to the national leadership.
