The last Assam Legislative Assembly election held in 2016 made headlines because Indian National Congress that had been governing the State since 2001 were voted out of power by the people of the State. And, in came the new Bharatiya Janata Party government. Now, in 2021, there is a lot of anticipation as to who win will the favour of the locals. BJP seems to be in the lead with regards to popularity but the issue of CAA may have alienated some supporters over the last year. And, Congress is skilfully using CAA to woo voters to their side. There is also the newly-formed Assam Jatiya Parishad that is creating some buzz. Needless to say, the road leading to Election Day has been eventful; we take a look at everything that has happened so far –
The Alliances
In total, there are a total of 13 political parties who will be contesting in this year’s election. The two big coalitions will be led by the ruling BJP and the Congress. As expected, BJP hopes to maintain their winning streak, and are looking to score a second term. The Congress had to suffer a major hiccup in the 2016 election when they were reduced to only 26 seats but this year they are hoping to come back strong.
BJP has aligned themselves with the regional party, Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) and United People’s Party Liberal (UPPL). BJP will be contesting in 92 seats, AGP will be contesting from 26 seats and UPPL will be contesting from eight seats.

MUSINGS OF A SOLDIER: TIT-BITS
People often ask me about my life out of uniform. Honestly, I have had no problems. Not so far. Instead, I find it quite refreshing. No routine, no parades, no briefing, no impending operations. Having donned the uniform since the age of thirteen until I hung up my boots last year, could I ever visualize life out of uniform? Not really. But, as I said, the transition has been quite smoothâno hang-overs, no regrets. People have been very positive in their interactions. Government departments have been responsive whenever I have approached for assistance.The genuine respect for the uniform is quite evident and it makes my heart swell with pride. Arunachal, to that extent, is the most nationalistic state in the country, I daresay. It has been kind of a revelation for me to experience the freedom of being a common man in an environment of positivity!
