Dhakhuakhana, Nov 9: Raijor Dal candidate Medini Mohan Doley filed his nomination papers for the 21 No. Bornai constituency in the upcoming Mising Autonomous Council (MAC) elections on Monday, as political activities gathered pace ahead of the November 30 polls.
Doley submitted his papers before the District Commissioner and Returning Officer, accompanied by Raijor Dal Central Secretary Dhruvajyoti Kalita, party functionaries and workers, and representatives of the Krishak Mukti Sangram Samiti (KMSS).
Following the nomination filing, supporters welcomed Doley with traditional music, dance and folk performances. A nearly three-kilometre march was also organised, with local residents, including women, youths and elderly people, extending their support to the candidate.
Speaking to reporters, Kalita said grassroots leadership emerged from the struggles of marginalised communities. He expressed confidence that Doley would raise the constituency’s long-standing concerns, particularly recurring floods, soil erosion and land rights.
