JAGIROAD, April 9: As the election day approaches, every political party is in full swing with its campaign. The 9th Nagaon Lok Sabha constituency is no exception. The Congress candidate for Nagaon MP, Pradyut Bordoloi, has also been able to attract the attention of voters by conducting a massive campaign among people of different languages and ethnic groups in various areas of the Jagiroad assembly constituency. The Congress candidate opened party offices in Bhakatgaon, Manaha, and Jhargaon panchayats of the Jagiroad constituency after serving at the Deoshal temple in Jagiroad on Monday. He campaigned in Buraburi, Kushiani, Sidhaguri, Pavakati, and Gagalmari bazaars of Mayang in the presence of hundreds of people. He also criticised the BJP and the AIUDF.
“The Congress party will fight against two communal forces in Nagaon this time. He said Badruddin Ajmal (chief of AIUDF) and Aminul Islam (AIUDF candidate for Nagaon) are the loyal followers of chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma and these two leaders have done nothing for the Muslim people in the past. Therefore, the people need to be more vigilant when casting their precious vote this time.”
He reiterated that chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma is dreaming of winning the elections by colouring the seven-generation Assamese society with communalism. He said the BJP has no place for narrow politics in Nagaon. He was accompanied by Morigaon district Congress president Bir Kumar Kowar, Assam Pradesh Congress Committee secretary Imdad Hussain, Morigaon district Congress observer Deb Chetia, general secretary Samsuddin Ahmed, block Congress president Mohan Das, former president Ajit Tamuli, Lakshi Deka, secretaries Tutu Doimary, president of the election committee Surya Kumar Das, general secretary Saimon Bordoloi, Jayanta Konwar, Sushil Saikia, Pritam Gogoi, apart from members of women congress, youth congress, NSUI, Sewa Dal.
