Rahul Gandhi said his party agrees with Trinamool Congress (TMC) chief Mamata Banerjee that more than 100 seats were stolen in West Bengal.

AJP's greenhorn candidate Kunki Chowdhury, who shot to the limelight after Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma threatened legal action against her parents over alleged beef consumption, lost to BJP veteran Vijay Kumar Gupta in Guwahati Central constituency by 61,921 votes, according to the Election Commission.

Dr. Himanta Biswa addressed the media and the public at Atal Bihari Vajpayee Bhawan today on the Assam Legislative Assembly election results (for his win). He expressed  his heartfelt gratitude to the people of Assam for their mandate.

Dilip Saikia termed the BJP’s third consecutive win in Assam Assembly elections as “historic,” saying it reflects fulfilment of the 2021 manifesto and public trust in governance. The BJP secured 67 seats and led in 15 more, crossing the majority mark, while NDA allies like Asom Gana Parishad and Bodoland People's Front added to the tally.

Saikia said voters rejected opposition narratives and supported BJP across communities, citing development, cultural protection, and stability as key factors behind the strong mandate, PTI further reported.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah congratulated people of Assam for "historic hat-trick mandate", terming it a strong endorsement of the tireless efforts over the past 10 years by the NDA government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to build a secure, peaceful, and progressive state, PTI reported.

"This boundless affection and cooperation are strengthening our resolve to deliver even better services to you and fulfil your hopes and aspirations," he took to 'X'.

This consistent third major victory for the NDA in Assam is a testament to the unwavering trust in the BJP's 'double engine' government under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi and Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, which has transformed Assam from a land of unrest to a land of hope and development, Shah said.

Himanta Biswa Sarma said that allegations made by Congress leader Pawan Khera against his wife before the elections hurt public sentiment, as they were seen as an attempt to malign an Assamese woman. 

Addressing a press conference, the Chief Minister suggested that Assam Congress chief Gaurav Gogoi sharing the stage with Khera during those claims may have contributed to his electoral defeat, PTI reported. 

Sarma reiterated that he would act on the matter, while also taking a swipe at Khera, saying the controversy emotionally resonated with voters. The allegations, which were denied by Sarma and his wife Riniki Bhuyan Sharma—who also filed a police complaint—remain under legal scrutiny, with Khera having secured anticipatory bail from the Supreme Court.

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday won the Jalukbari constituency for the sixth consecutive term, defeating Congress candidate Bidisha Neog by 89,434 votes. PTI reported that Sarma's winning margin was 1,01,000 votes in 2021 when he became the chief minister of the state for the first time. Sarma is leading from the first round, polled 1,27,151 votes, while Neog has secured 37,717 at the end of the 13th round of counting.

He had failed to win his first poll from the Jalukbari constituency in 1996, but his winning streak continued from 2001. His victory margin kept increasing in the subsequent polls till 2021.

Debabrata Saikia, Leader of Opposition in the Assam Assembly, lost the Nazira seat to BJP candidate Mayur Borgohain by a margin of 46,701 votes, according to Election Commission data.

PTI reported that Borgohain secured 98,198 votes, while Saikia managed 51,497 votes. Saikia, who had represented Nazira since 2011 and narrowly won the previous election by less than 500 votes, faced a major setback in what was long considered a stronghold of the Saikia family. The constituency has deep political roots for the family, having earlier been represented by his father, former Chief Minister Hiteswar Saikia, and his mother Hemoprava Saikia.

CMO of Assam's official page has congratulated Himanta Biswa Sarma and BJP Assam on winning a decisive mandate in the Assam Elections 2026. This victory reflects the growing trust of the people in the government’s policies and leadership.

It also signals continued public support for the party’s development agenda, as the journey of governance and progress in the state moves forward with renewed confidence.

Pradyut Bordoloi, running on a BJP ticket, pulled off a big win in Assam’s Dispur seat. He beat Congress’s Mira Borthakur Goswami and independent Jayanta Kumar Das by a huge margin—49,667 votes. 

Bordoloi had spent more than 50 years with Congress and even served as Lok Sabha MP from Nagaon, but he jumped ship to the BJP just weeks before the election. He ended up with 1,03,337 votes. Goswami got 53,670. It’s a real shake-up, considering his long Congress background. 

Over in Jalukbari, Assam’s Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma is way out in front too, leading Congress’s Bidisha Neog by more than 80,000 votes, according to trends from the Election Commission.

PM Modi thanked the BJP-NDA workers in Assam for never letting up and working day and night to reach out to people. He pointed out that, over the last 10 years, the party and its allies have grown a lot in the state because they stayed connected at the grassroots and kept showing up.

That is what got people to really connect with the government's agenda, Modi said. Now, there's more trust and support for the party all across Assam.
