Speaking at a large public meeting, BPF president and BTC chief Hagrama Mohilary said the alliance must work in unison to ensure a decisive victory in the BTR. He stressed that the region should once again play a pivotal role in strengthening the NDA’s position in the state assembly.

Mohilary also voiced his support for Himanta Biswa Sarma, stating that continuity in leadership was essential for development and stability and that Sarma should continue as the chief minister of Assam after the 2026 polls.

The rally, held under the banner of the ‘Dispur Chalo Yatra 2026’, saw the participation of senior party leaders along with a large number of grassroots workers. Party leaders said the campaign would focus on highlighting development initiatives, strengthening organisational networks, and consolidating voter support across Bodoland.

With the Assam assembly elections drawing closer, the BPF aims to project unity within the NDA and reaffirm its dominance in the BTR, positioning the region as a key electoral battleground in the run-up to the state polls.
