AIUDF has formally selected Badruddin Ajmal to contest the Nagaon Lok Sabha seat in the forthcoming general elections. Ajmal, who has a long-standing political presence in Assam, is expected to bring significant support to the party’s campaign.
The decision follows a tense political environment in the region, with reports indicating that the BJP was in a state of urgency and allegedly approached Ajmal for assistance. State Congress president Gaurav Gogoi has publicly accused the BJP of panic, suggesting that the party was looking for strategic alliances.
The move by AIUDF is seen as a bid to strengthen its position in the northeastern states, while the BJP’s alleged outreach to Ajmal highlights the competitive nature of the upcoming electoral contest.
