Guwahati, Feb 13 (NationPress) Assam's Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma stated on Friday that the BJP will unveil its candidate list right after the Election Commission announces the dates for the forthcoming elections.

While addressing the media in Udalguri, the Chief Minister emphasized that the party is entirely geared up for the elections and is proceeding with a definitive strategy. Sarma remarked that the political maneuvers within the opposition will not impede or change the ruling party’s plan.

“Once the election dates are out, we will roll out our candidates without hesitation,” he mentioned, noting that early clarity will aid the party in bolstering its grassroots outreach and organizational efforts.

Commenting on the opposition's attempts at unification, the Chief Minister asserted that the ruling party must always prepare for a potential united front from the opposition.

“We have to proceed under the assumption that opposition unity is likely,” Sarma communicated to reporters, emphasizing that electoral readiness should not hinge upon conjecture or political ambiguity.

He expressed confidence in the government and party's accomplishments, citing development initiatives, infrastructure growth, and welfare programs launched in recent years.

Sarma noted that these efforts have forged a strong bond between the government and the populace, especially in rural and tribal regions.

The Chief Minister reiterated that the party's concentration remains on governance and public service over political maneuvers.

He asserted that the government will keep prioritizing development, law and order, and the welfare of all community segments as the elections approach.

Sarma acknowledged that organizational reinforcement at the booth level is largely complete in most constituencies and affirmed that feedback from grassroots workers is being continuously evaluated. He stated that candidate selection will rely on aspects like winnability, performance, and public acceptance.

The Chief Minister downplayed concerns that opposition strategies could present significant hurdles, asserting that the ruling party is assured of winning a new mandate.

He concluded by stating that the electorate will judge parties based on their efficacy and credibility rather than political coalitions.

Reaffirming his assurance, Sarma expressed that the party is prepared to tackle the elections as soon as they are announced, and he is optimistic that the people of Assam will once again place their trust in the current leadership and its vision for the state’s future.
