NDA may win 103 of 126 seats in Assam assembly polls, says Himanta 

way2barak, Jan 5: Chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Sunday that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies in the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) are likely to win 103 of the 126 seats in the assembly polls expected to be held in March–April.

“I wouldn’t like to give an exact figure, but this time we have a chance of winning 103 seats. Earlier that probability was around 90 seats, but with the delimitation of seats that number has gone up by another 13–15 seats,” Sarma said on the sidelines of an event at Dimoria in Kamrup Metropolitan district.

The BJP is currently in alliance with three regional parties in Assam — Asom Gana Parishad (AGP), United People’s Party Liberal (UPPL) and Bodoland People’s Front (BPF). No seat-sharing arrangement has been decided among these parties so far.
