"The work for nomination paper submission has been started. And talking with the people of Assam, I felt that the public feels that the BJP should come back to power. The people feel that BJP has taken Assam to new heights in line with development," he said.

"We had promised a pollution-free, developed Assam, corruption-free Assam, terrorism-free Assam, infiltrator-free Assam. We have worked on all of these points with sincerity and, this has made the people believe that BJP has worked for the people of Assam."

"The people of Assam have witnessed the ill ideology of opposition parties. They have pushed the situation to chaos. The parties which lack a proper ideology and goal can never ensure development," Sonowal said.

The BJP is in alliance with Asom Gana Parishad (AGP) and the United People's Party Liberal (UPPL).
