In a sharp attack on the opposition, Hazarika claimed that public support strongly favours the BJP and predicted a poor turnout at Congress rallies. “No one will go to Congress’s public meeting,” he remarked. The statements come amid intensified campaigning across Assam ahead of the Assembly elections, with political parties sharpening their agendas and outreach to voters.
