Assembly Elections 2026 Live Updates: Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a rally in poll-bound Assam on Monday and emphasised the developmental works during the BJP’s ten-year tenure in the northeastern state. He also stressed that the coming period is to take the state forward towards self-reliance.
Addressing a gathering in Barpeta, the Prime Minister took a swipe at the Congress party, accusing them of working with a short-term vision for indulging in “corruption.” He mentioned that the previous ten years were spent towards protecting Assam’s identity; meanwhile, the coming time is for taking it to the global stage.
“The Indian National Congress is a party that never works on development with a long-term vision. Congress does short-term work so that it can indulge in corruption. On the other hand, BJP is a party that works with a long-term vision. We are taking along the goal of a developed Assam towards a developed India. That is why we have worked with full dedication over the past 10 years,” PM Modi said. Follow for all the latest updates on the upcoming elections.
