Assam politics: Bhupen Borah meets CM Himanta Sarma after Congress exit

Former Assam Congress chief Bhupen Borah's recent meeting with Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has set the political landscape abuzz with speculation. The meeting follows Borah's resignation from his post, fueling rumors of a potential shift in political allegiance. Although the details of their discussion remain undisclosed, the timing has led many to question Borah's future political plans. Borah, known for his strategic acumen within the Congress, has yet to make any public statements about his next move. His departure adds to the list of Congress leaders who have recently exited the party, citing various reasons from ideological differences to a desire for greater political impact. This trend of Congress exits highlights the challenges the party faces in retaining its influential members. Meanwhile, CM Sarma, a former Congress member himself, has not commented on the possibility of Borah joining the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). This meeting, however, underscores the fluid nature of Assam's political climate, where alliances often shift, and new dynamics emerge. Observers are keenly watching for any announcements that could signal a significant realignment within the state's political sphere.
