The Union minister was accompanied by the Chief Executive Member (CEM) of the Bodoland Territorial Region, Pramod Boro, as well as senior NDA alliance leaders, MPs, and MLAs.
Boro also addressed election rallies in Runikhata, Khungring, and met with local residents across the constituency. He stated that the people have expressed strong support for the UPPL and NDA alliance in the upcoming by-elections on November 13. He added, “The NDA will win Sidli by a landslide in the assembly by-elections, along with the other four constituencies.”
He emphasised that people from all communities are rallying behind Brahma, the NDA-backed UPPL candidate in the by-elections.
“It was a great pleasure to join Hon’ble Union Cabinet Minister Shri @sarbanandsonwal and respected dignitaries of our UPPL+BJP+AGP alliance at the Grand Public Meeting for the upcoming 31 No. Sidli (ST) LAC by-elections. The immense love and affection of the people of Sidli for the NDA is truly remarkable. With their blessings, our alliance will defeat the opposition and secure a historic victory,” Boro said.
